I Believe in Christ

I feel like I have believed in Christ from as far back as I remember. I grew up a member of the Church, and I feel like it has grown in me as I have grown older. I remember thinking to myself, what makes me go to church, what makes me fulfill my calling, when there is no one there to tell me to. I feel like it is my knowledge that Christ lives, and is our Savior. I know That he lives, because I know the Book of Mormon is true. I know that it is true by the Spirit of the Holy Ghost. I love to feel the sweet happy spirit that the Book of Mormon Brings as you read from it's pages. I know that Christ lives, because I have felt the cleansing power of the Atonement in my life. The Atonement is real, and it is there to heal us, and bring us comfort. I am just beginning to break the surface in understanding the Atonement, and really applying it, but I have felt it. I haven't had a huge blow away experience that has told me these things. But I have had many sweet and tender experiences that have helped me to know that Christ lives. I know that can return to live with our Father in Heaven some day, because of what Christ did for us. There is no way I could ever deny Christ. There are some pretty harsh things I could go through, but to deny him would be to lie not only to myself, but to God. I know that Christ lives, and largely the Book of Mormon has helped me pattern my life in such a way that I could come to know him. Christ lives, this I know, in the name of Jesus Christ amen.
