My Lord, my God


Jesus Christ is my Lord and my God. He atoned for my sins and yours. When I think of his mercy and his love, I am continuously amazed. He never ceases to loves us and help uplift us when we fall short. My Savior died on the cross and suffered in Gethsemane. He felt my pain individually. He knows my weaknesses, sorrows, and troubles. Whenever you're feeling down and like you can't do it anymore remember that Jesus knows what you're going through. He has felt it all. I know the Book of Mormon to be the Word of God. Oh how I love the scriptures. I know they truly testify of Christ and his love for us. I know that by sincerely studying and pondering them we can draw nearer unto God. I know that through sincere honest prayer we can come to know our Father in Heaven personally. If we do are part he will do the rest. I know that God hears and answers every prayer. I know the answer he gives is what's best for us. I know Joseph Smith is a prophet of God and restored the gospel in it's fulness on the earth today. I know he saw God the Father and his Son Jesus Christ in the Sacred Grove. I know of the power of repentance and forgiveness. It has worked in my life and it can work in yours. I know Thomas S. Monson is the prophet on the earth today and that he leads and guides this church in righteousness. I know that when we follow prophets therein lies safety and peace. I know that families can be together forever. I know the temple is a place where we can come to feel of the spirit and draw closer to our Savior. I know that if we fulfill are callings in the church to the best of our ability we will be blessed. I know this church is true brothers and sisters. I know my Savior lives and that his hand is outstretched to us all the day long. I say these things, in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, and our God, Amen.
