I would like to bear my testimony. I know that the Church of Jesus Christ is true. I know that families can be together forever, and that Heavenly Father put all of us together for a reason. I know that as we strive to be obedient to the Lord that he will help us and meet us half way. I know that president Nelson is the true prophet of God, and that all of the apostles are called of God. I know the the power of forgiveness is real, and that we can all be forgiven. It is through Jesus Christ, that if we put our faith in him, that everything will become easier — everything will become clear. I know that Jesus will come again. I know that everything that I have, and everything that I have become is only because of my Heavenly Father loving me. I would not be even half of the person that I am today if I didn’t have the gospel in my life. If I do things in my life that are based around the gospel, then I will be able to feel the spirit because I was baptized, and have the gift of the Holy Ghost. I know that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost are three distinct beings that love us more than we can even comprehend. I know that Gods love for me is Infinite and as long as I strive to be by his side, I will never be alone. I will never have to worry about anything, because I know that it is all part of Heavenly Father’s plan for me. I know that I am where I am supposed to be, and that I can learn so much if I open my eyes and see the beautiful things that Jesus has created, just for me! I know with a certainty that I am a child of God. I know that he has sent me here to bless the lives of others, to grow spiritually, to grow emotionally, and to ultimately live with him again. I know that as I do my best to honor my mother and my father that I will be able to grow so much more than if I try to do it myself. I know that scripture study is one way that we can show Heavenly Father that we care and want him to be able to use us as tools to spread his words. I know that being a missionary and going on a mission is going to be so much fun! All of the people that you meet will be able to be potential friends for the rest of your life. I know that serving the lord will help bring not only you, but others, even family, closer together. As you serve the Lord, there will be so many blessings that it will be impossible to count them all. You will be able to let your light shine, and you will be able to be that beacon of light that we are all striving to be. People will be able to look up to you and know that they are being heard, and that what they have to say matters. I know that going to the temple is so important! Going to the temple allows you to be closer to Heavenly Father than anywhere else in the world. It is in the temple that you can receive the most special and personal Revelations, and be able to feel the spirit the strongest. I know that it is by the grace of God that all man kind will be saved. I know that Heavenly Father just asks us to do our best, and that it will be good enough. There is nothing that we do in this life that we can not be forgiven for. We will never be able to leave the ever so close arms of our Heavenly Father to the point of no return. It is simply not possible. He will always be there for us whether we recognize it or not. He will be with us every step of the way, and he will always want us to return. I know that as we pray daily, and find those tender mercies that are all around us that we will be happier, and we will see that we are never alone. I would like to say these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
