... It takes a night to make it dawn
And it takes a day to make you yawn brother
And it takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other ...

My Testimony

I know God exists, that he is the literal Father of our individual spirits.

God is both a master artist and scientist.

I believe God “… has all power, all wisdom, and all understanding; he comprehendeth all things, and he is a merciful Being …” (Alma 26:35). I believe God moves things in the world to bless me, and I will receive those things if I will allow him to lead me and accept the blessing and opportunities that are placed before me.

I believe Jesus Christ is God’s son, and that he fulfilled God’s plan in coming to earth, living and dying for me (and everyone else individually and personally).  I believe Christ still lives for me. 

I believe in the Holy Ghost, the third member of the Godhead.  I have developed (and continue to do so) my ability to hear/feel his promptings.  

I have come to trust God – even when I don’t understand why he leads me in one direction when I felt the opposite direction was where I wanted to go.  He is always right.

I believe God calls prophets to direct His affairs on earth.  Prophets remind us to keep looking to God.

Keeping God’s commandments (particularly partaking of the sacrament, scripture study, and prayer) leads to life flowing smoother. 

Seeking God’s will for me and obedience to that Will ALWAYS make life better.
