Birthday Testimony :)

I did this as part of my personal scripture study, but I thought that I would share it here.  I am another year older, but here is 20 things that I have a testimony of for you to enjoy. Have a wonderful day!
  1. Jesus Christ is our Savior and Redeemer. He suffered for our sins, our trials, and our troubles.
  2. Families can be together of. I am so grateful that I got stuck with a great family for all eternity. I can not imagine even one day without them!
  3. Heavenly Father is very aware of our circumstances. He puts us into the situations that we need to be put into.
  4. Heavenly Father answers prayers. They may not be loud answers, but quiet feelings.
  5. Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon. I am so grateful for this. Going through this challenge is making me even more grateful.
  6. The Book of Mormon is true. It is filled with all the right stuff. :)
  7. President Monson is a true prophet. He speaks the words of God to us today. I am grateful for this connection to God.
  8. The Priesthood is restored. I am so glad that I grew up in a home where the Priesthood was held worthily.
  9. I know that Heavenly Father has a plan for us.
  10. The Holy Ghost is here to comfort us and help us know what to do.
  11. There is a life after this one. We are the ones who determine how good or bad that life is.
  12. I know that God speaks through us not only through feelings, but also as we read our scriptures. He gives us the answers to our questions through the things we read.
  13. Jesus Christ loves us. I know I kind of already covered this one, but I know He would have gone through the atonement if it had just been me.
  14. Jesus Christ will come again. It will be a wonderful day.
  15. The Gospel is true. There is nothing that is going to stop it from spreading to all of the world.
  16. We are made in God's image.
  17. Heavenly Father will never put something onto us that we cannot handle.
  18. I know that my family loves me. I am so lucky to have them in my life.

Answered Prayers

To those of you who heard my testimony today, I apologize that I am repeating myself. This is an experience I just needed to write down for myself. Let's rewind to Monday night. I hadn't been feeling all that great. I had only gotten 3 hours of sleep the night before. I just was ready to go to bed. I told myself that I would come home from FHE and go to sleep. I was in my pajamas by 8:30- crazy for a college student, right? One of my friends dropped in for a visit. After she left, I had one of those moments where I just felt completely alone. I went to my room and prayed when a few simple words came to my mind. "Heavenly Father, Are you really there? And do you hear and answer every child's prayer?" These two lines from the children's primary song were stuck in my mind. In the moment, it is easy to doubt that Heavenly Father answers our prayers. How can He really hear every single prayer around the world? How can He answer every single one? It just ...

Our Story (Part 2)

Our Story:  Starting Our Relationship Part 2 of 2 Kindred Dead Show (1 month into dating) Our story was a little different than most, but I love it that way. I left off where we were just friends. When I say that we were just friends, I completely mean it. I didn't have feelings for him, he didn't have feelings for me. We both had moved on to other people. Life continued to move forward. As I said before, Gariet helped me through one of my hardest times with depression. He helped me when I just needed a friend. I needed him more as a friend than anything else. Meeting Gariet's Family We both went home for winter break. Gariet knew that I was worried about this because of everything that I was going through at that time. He stood by me, even though he forgot his phone in Utah. He would send me Facebook messages, iMessages, and called me on Skype. I started to realize that I still had feelings for this crazy boy. I kept denying it. I couldn't like...

Suicide Prevention Week- Accessing Christ's Atonement for Spiritual and Emotional Help

I have been meaning to get a blog post written as soon as I read that it was Suicide Prevention Week on Facebook. I love the publicity that this is getting now, verses a few years ago. I think that by being open about talking about suicide, we are preventing a lot of suicides from happening. Why? Because that teenager or adult that doesn't understand what they are feeling now sees how to get help. They see that they shouldn't feel embarrassed or ashamed, but that other people feel this way too.  I have talked about my own thoughts of suicide before, but today I wanted to share some hope. I absolutely cringed when Robin Williams committed suicide and everyone kept saying that he was "free". Yes, he had fought a good fight, but I was so scared of it encouraging others to commit suicide to escape because they wanted the same freedom.  Today, I want to share something that I shared with a family member before about how to use Jesus Christ's atonement to receive sp...
