The Lord is and will be forever my Sheperd

Before I even started writing this post, I skimmed at all the titles people have put on here. Most of them say the same thing "I believe in Christ." Is it prideful to say I feel more than that? If there was a word stronger than "believe" I would use it. It's almost the same thing as the word faith. It's a simple word but the meaning behind it is so much more. This semester at BYU-I, I, as I'm sure most people had, have a ruff semester. But no matter what happened to me, my Savior was always there. He was there to comfort me even when I didn't ask it. That's the glory of Him knowing us better than ourselves. He knows what we need and when we need it. Even even knows in what amount. The Savior is our guide and I believe that to be a fact. He is our shepherd to guide us wherever we want to be. He searchers for us when we are lost and brings us back to the herd for our salvation. The Savior loves us very much and I feel His love everyday as I walk on this campus, sit in my classes, read the scriptures and so much more. It is such a blessing to be on a campus with people who share the same beliefs, values and attitude you have towards the gospel and the Savior.

I love the gospel with all my heart. Sometimes I think I love it too much, that I become over protective of it and defend it when I feel like people are putting it down. But I understand that we don't need to be over protective. We just need to be informative and make all assumptions, thoughts about the gospel and other questions made clear. The church is not about being angry and protective. It's about loving others as Christ loves everyone and bringing peace when there is now.

It took me to come to college to wake me up and see what a wonderful book the Book of Mormon really is. As I have studied it through my classes and learned how things connect with the gospel, I know that this gospel is true. The Holy Ghost always confirms it to me by showing me certain things even if I have no doubts.

I love this church so much and would be lost with out it. The Lord is my Shepherd and I will always rely on Him for guidance. I know that through the Atonement we can all return to our Father in Heavenly. The Savior did everything with the thought of us. Not only did He know it was to fulfill Heavenly Father's plan but He knew it was for all us who He cares for so much.

I belive in Christ, I do. He is the rock of our Salvation and He is the lover of manking. Without Him, we would all be lost.
