Thoughts:

I know it's been a little while since I wrote last.  Sorry about that.

GENERAL CONFERENCE!!!!  How amazing was it???  I love the fact that Conference has the ability to tear me down and build me back up stronger than ever in one fell swoop.  These inspired men and women can make me realize how insignificant and sinful I am and then make me feel more capable and strong than I have ever felt before within a few minutes.  I find it so awe inspiring to look back on all of the talks and be able to find something applicable for me in my life, right now.  How much more proof of the divine Grace of God is there than that?  The tender mercy that he has in answering my prayers and questions through his Prophets and Apostles.  A greater witness of His Love I can't think of.  Such a wonderful experience.  I was truly blessed to be able to watch conference these last two days.  I hope that you all had as good an experience as I did.

One thing that Conference did for me was to remind me how much the Gospel means to me.  It renewed my desire to share with others what I know.  So, I want to share my testimony with any and all who might read this.  I do this for a few reasons.  One of which, is because I want to share the most important gift I  have been given with others.  The other reason, is that I want it to be known, to all who read, to myself, and to God and my Savior that I have a testimony of this restored Gospel.  "I knew it, and I knew that God knew it, and I could not deny it."

I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the restored Gospel of Christ on the Earth today.  I know that in the year 1820, God the Father and his Son, Jesus Christ appeared to Joseph Smith and that through Joseph, this church was restored to the earth.  I know that He translated the Book of Mormon with divine help and that the Book of Mormon is truly another testament of Jesus Christ.

I know that my Savior, Jesus Christ, lived and died for my sins and sorrows and that his Atonement can save me and my family if we will only repent and come unto Him.  I know that families are eternal.

I know that God loves each of us more than we can even imagine and that all he has is ours if we keep his commandments and come unto Him.

I am grateful for everything that the Lord has given me in my life and I cannot express how deeply my gratitude runs.  I thank him with all of my heart and soul in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
