The Meaning Behind the Madness :D

SO! In my seminary class, my teacher brought up the idea of making these blogs to post our beliefs about the church, which would be The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which is quite the mouthful, so LDS church or the Mormon church. I was pretty much pumped, because this kind of stuff is rockin'! Not to mention that this is for a church class, and we basically never do stuff like this. So anyways I went home that day and made a blog super quick... and then posted nothing. So here I am now, taking the time to write about what I believe!

First and foremost, I know this church is true, and with that as the basis of everything else, I know President Thomas S. Monson is a true prophet of God, that he really DOES know what he needs to say to comfort and guide the people in this church. I would follow him to the ends of the Earth. I know that prayer works, and that he really does listen to what you are saying. I believe sometimes you mistake the Holy Ghost as your own thoughts, which isn't necessarily a bad thing because it probably means you are on the right path to be so connected. I believe everything happens for a reason, even if it's something really bad. You can always become stronger because of it. I know that the Book of Mormon is really a book from heaven, and not just something made up by a delusional young boy by the name of Joseph Smith. I know that Joseph saw what he said he did, because I have felt the truth in his words, even today. I know you're never alone in anything, and that Jesus Christ is the best friend you can or will ever have. I know that Preisthood blessings, especially father's blessings, are the real thing, and that many times, it isn't your earthly father speaking, but your Heavenly Father instead. And finally, I know I am a daughter of God, who loves me, and I love him.
