Center my life...


Before writting I did skim about what everyone else had said and it made me think about  what I was really going to say. So here it goes.....

I truely do have a sincere beliefe in Christ and I do love him with all of my heart. I know that everyone has had trials in their life, but I seemed to have a lot of them. When I was about 3 years old my dad was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease. It was a very trying time in my families life but throughout all of the treatments and everything, we always stayed strong in the gospel. Even when my dad was sick at home, or in the hospital we still had our bishop or some priesthood holder come and administer the sacrament to my father. It was very important to my family to participate in the sacrament, and I have carried that with me throughout my entire life. My father has been a great example for me throughout everything in my life, and it has made me realize how big a part the gospel is in my life.

The sacrament has never meant so much to me until I wasn't able to take it. Through a hard time in my life I had to go through the repentance process, and through that I wasn't able to participate in the sacrament. Now that I am able to take of the sacrament, it makes me realize how big of a blessing it is in my life. It isn't just taking on the name of Christ, it is really taking on his name and trying to do everything like he would. You are representing him in your life when you take part in the sacrament. 

I know that the Lord is the center of my life, and it has really blessed me and my family when I do have him as the center of my life. 

I know that this church is true and that the teachings of the church are what will truely bless your life. I know that it has definitely blessed my life, and I am extremely grateful. I love Jesus Christ and know that he died for me, so that I can repent and become clean once again in the sight of God. I know that Joseph Smith was a true prophet and that Thomas S. Manson is the true prophet today. I love this church and I love the fact that everything even makes sense to me in it. The Book of Mormon is a true book, and it really was truely translated by Joseph Smith. I have been trying to make Jesus Christ the center of my life, since I have chosen to have him in the center of my life my life has been extremely blessed. I know these things with all of my heart and I know that as long as we try our best and keep Christ as the center of everything, we will be blessed for that. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
