I Stand All Amazed


I have been blessed with faith and the knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I have always known that the Church was true and that God is my Heavenly Father, and because of that it has allowed to me be a strength to my family and friends around. It has also allowed me to not be tempted with the difficult things other people do. I am grateful for being blessed with this. To me, it is just another example to me that I am a spirit child of God and that I have the same spirit as I had in the pre-existence as I have on Earth, and that I will have in the eternities. What a blessing it is to know that. 
I am so grateful for families. The Lord knows us and what we need as His children, or what we will be able to handle. This part of my testimony has grown so much this past semester with everything that I have dealt with and watching the relationships that my roommates have with their parents. The Lord has truly blessed me with a strong, smart, loving, and close family. 
My testimony of the Book of Mormon has definitely increased this semester so much I can't even begin to explain. I know that book was truly written for us in these last days and watching the Lord's hand in preserving it through all those years for us, I can't believe people don't believe in it. I have never read the Book of Mormon like I have this semester and learning so much from it. The Lord really does guide you and direct you and comfort you from this book, if you allow Him too. 
My testimony is simple, but it is deep and I truly love the Lord and am so grateful for everything He does for me and for guiding me. I am grateful that I have the opportunity to come to Earth and become like God.
