Baptism

Last night was Ashley's baptism she is such a great example. I can see she really believes in this gospel. At 15 I don't think I could make such a big choice as to get baptized in a different church than my parents. She must really believe and that makes me so happy. This proves to me once again that the church is true.
I know the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is true and I am eternally grateful for being a member. It has made me who I am. I am a kinder and more accepting person because I have grown up in this church.

I know Christ died for me so that I could return to heaven. I believe in the atonement, I know Christ felt everything that I feel. This is an encouraging thought. It makes me feel less alone. I know Joseph smith was a prophet called of God. I know Joseph smith went into the sacred grove and prayed to Heavenly Father asking what church is true. And I know without a doubt that heavenly father and Christ appeared to him. I am grateful that Joseph smith was faithful and restored this gospel. I believe in the power of prayer. While I may not be the best at daily prayers I do believe in prayer. I know God listens to me every time I pray. And I know he will answer my prayers. I know the process of repentance is real and works. I know we can be clean again even if we mess up. I know how crucial repentance is on order to return to heaven and live in the celestial kingdom.
I know angels are real. I know my Madison is in heaven watching me everyday. I know she is with me every time I need her. I know families are forever and I am more thankful for this than anything in the world. I can't wait to live with Madison and be with her and be her older sister. I know the Holy Ghost is real and I am grateful to have it always with me. It is the comforter in my life. The Holy Ghost helps me be strong when I feel weak. I wish everyone could have the Holy Ghost with them because then everyone would have to believe in this gospel. I believe if you can feel the spirit then you can be shown the truth of this gospel.

I know this church is true and it makes me so proud to see others converting. I want to cry in joy over Ashley being baptised. She has changed her life for the better by accepting the gospel. I am thankful for Josh and how he was so willing to share the gospel. He wasn't scared to invite her to watch conference on T.V. with his family, and because he did so one year ago now Ashley is baptised. I want to  be more like that, I don't want to be scared to invite people. My goal is that I get each of my friends to church at some point, I really think they should come. I know some of my friends have felt the spirit when I have talked about the church (I talk about it enough!). I have bared my testimony of little things to them and I know they know that I believe in this church. I pray that before they die they each accept this gospel in their lives. I love this gospel and all its truthfulness that it shows to me. It answers all my questions in life.
