Quote From Somewhere That Resonates

"Occasionally there are minutes that get extra seconds. Moments so precious the universe stretches to make additional room for them, and this was one of them."

Every moment with my family makes this quote hit home!!!

Testimony

In Come Follow Me this week, we studied the change and evolution of Peter as a person and apostle of Jesus Christ. I felt my testimony strengthened that the atonement has power to change us all. I am living proof. I feel the change. I see change in me and I have desire for more change in my own life. Some days it may feel uncomfortable, but like at the end of a race I feel bedraggled and well worn, but pleased, ecstatic and content. This is life eternal. That like Peter and the Come Follow Me program suggested this week, the responsibility now rests upon my shoulders to boldly and bravely share my witness.

God's plan that encompasses and sees all of eternity prepared this nation with wise men and religious freedoms at the end of the 1700's.  That Joseph Smith was born in 1805 to change the world starting at age 14.  That if he can see and plan and prepare so perfectly so great a plan with so many components, then I am confident he sees and knows and can change me. He is giving me my preparation and life experiences and my environment so that I too can testify.  I may not be Joseph Smith but I can share my witness boldly, nobly, and independently so that if I can bring one soul unto Christ, my joy is great and full.

I testify I know this is His plan and work of salvation.  I want to be His ambassador of this great message that He lives. He loves and wants to save not only me but everyone. That He blesses us with His continued works through the prophet and scriptures. That the Holy Ghost can continue to teach us and prick our hearts to see and hear and know truth building line upon line, precept upon precept.  That as I act upon those impression I can widen my conduit to heaven to feel more of His love and receive revelation and continue to be changed and perfected daily.  In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
