I know that my Father in Heaven lives. I know that he loves each one of us individually. Because of his great love for us he created a plan. This plan allows us to learn and grow through the application of the knowledge we obtain. Through the application of this knowledge we obtain Christ-like attributes that bring us closer to our Father in Heaven. Our Father knew we would make mistakes and fall short during this time of growth and learning. For this purpose he provided a Savior. This Savior is Jesus Christ. As a Book of Mormon prophet teaches, without Christ we would all be fallen and lost. Only through Christ's atonement can we be cleansed and perfected. In order to take advantage of Christ's atonement we must come unto Christ. We must love him as he and our Father in Heaven loves us. If we are faithful we will be able to fill our divine potential and return to live with God, Jesus Christ, and our fellow saints. This I solemnly testify in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. - Luke Shaw -
