Growing up I have always been a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Getting older though, I have recently taken a harder look about what the church has brought me in my life. This is my list:
Priesthood Ordinances
I have made covenants with God. As I strive my best in keeping the commandments and coming unto Christ, I have the promise of an Eternal Marriage and Family, and Eternal Life. Because of the priesthood, I have the assurance that what is “bound on earth shall be bound in heaven.”
Knowledge
I know the Plan of Salvation. I have not only the Bible but the Book of Mormon and the words of living prophets to study. I also gain personal guidance so that I can perform God’s will in my life.
Strength and Guidance
I would not be where I am without the enabling and redeeming power of the Holy Spirit. My life has been strengthened by God, and I love the course where He has led me, the blessings He has poured upon me.
I am a Mormon, because this is the most complete and true church and the right place for me. Most of all, I have come to a knowledge of Christ as my Redeemer. Through Him, I am able to live in a beautiful family and have assurance that I can be with them eternally.
