God Has Given More!!

Glad Tidings of Great Joy. God has given us the wonderful privilage to know more of his will and word through the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ. The Book of Mormon is a record of God's dealings of the inhabitants of the New World, which is here in the Americas. Shows us how a nation when righteous will prosper however when they steer away from the teachings of Jesus Christ taught by the prophets they will be "ripe for destruction". The crowing event of the Book of Mormon is when the Savior himself comes to visit his "sheep" and personally ministers to the Nephites
 "We invite all men everywhere to read the Book of Mormon, to ponder in their hearts the message it contains, and then to ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ if the book is true. Those who pursue this course and ask in faith will gain a testimony of its truth and divinity by the power of the Holy Ghost.
 Those who gain this dicine witness from the Holy Spirit will also come to know by the same power that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world, that Joseph Smith is his revelatior and prophet in these last days, and that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the Lord's kingdom once again established on the earth, preparatory to the second coming of the Messiah." (Intoduction of the Book of Mormon)
I know with all my heart that Joseph Smith was called of God to restore Christs church back on Earth which was lost after the death of the Savior himself and apostles. Along with the restoration came the Restoration of the priesthood. God has given us everything to return back to Him. You can know of this truth through reading, pondering, and praying about the Book of Mormon. It's the evidence that God has given us. Are you willing?

The Same Jersey!

 Everyone is on the same team. We all wear the same jersey, with the same goal in our mind and heart. Love God and then go and love your fellowmen. Let us learn in our lives how we can better be the Lord's hands in fulfilling this goal. I know that God is our Loving Hevenly Father. He will use us to help others and to help support and uplift others as we become willing. I know that this restored gospel can help anyone that is willing to let it. It Strengthens our faith in our Savior Jesus Christ which helps us become more like him and follow his example. Ask yourselves: "How can I be the Lord's hands today?" Think alittle bit, ok know go make your goals. you got that all set, got the plans written down also, go now time to take this piece of advice "Go and Do, Don't sit an Stew!" ~ John Bytheway.
Now more time thinking about it. Go and do. Time to help our fellow brother/sisters who need our help.
I know God loves everyone of his children. Let's go follow his example and do the same!

Happy Mother's Day!!


  To all the mothers of the world. To all those mothers who's kids have left the house cause they're grown up and to those still taking care of the young ones, to all the soon to be mothers who are yet not married . Who ever you maybe I tip my hat for the women of the world and wish you a Happy Mother's Day!
I want to share my eternal love and gratitude for that special person who has given everything for my brothers and siserts and I, my mother. From the prayers to the e-mails all the way to the goody filled care packages. What I love most about my mother is the fact that she is always willing and ready to serve others.  There are many more things that I love about my mom. This is only one thing that I adore and love. I have come to feel and recognize the love that my mother has for all who come in contact with her. The one lesson my mother has taught me is like what the strippling warriors in the Book of Mormon were taught by their mothers, "that if they did not doubt, God would deliver them." (Alma 56:47) that council has changed the course of my life and if I can put my trust in the Lord I can be delivered from the vain things of the world along with overcoming the trials and hardships that occur in my life. I draw strength from those words.
  Thank you again for all the mothers who continue to be the best they can in teaching their children the ways of the Lord along with sacrificing all for the family. And thanks to those who are not yet mothers whatever the reason. You will always have my eternal gratitude. I know that God is looking out after every single one of you. HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!
