Recognize God in all things
I am weak, but with God’s help I can do anything. That is the hard part to remember. We always forget that we need God when we start doing things well ¨on our own¨. When we think we have it all down, that is when we forget God and He has to allow us struggle on our own. When we truly remember God in all things, He is there to guide us and lift us up when we fall. I love my Heavenly Father and I know He is real and truly talks to us if we approach Him in prayer. When He made the plan of Salvation for us he thought of each of us specifically and made the plan to truly help us at an individual level. He listens to us, He loves us, and He lives!

Moroni's promise
Speaking
a little about the importance of Moroni’s Promise, we were knocking on doors
and when we crossed the street, a couple of guys contacted us. One spoke
English and told us that he felt in his heart that he needed to talk to us. At first I
was thinking that he must be a golden contact, but he soon got into
bashing on our doctrines. He questioned our belief that we can become Gods, and
how there is no physical evidence of the Book of Mormon. The scriptures support
all that we believe, but he wouldn’t listen. He then remarked how the scrolls
that the Book of Abraham were taken from were translated by Egyptian scholars
and that their translation was different than Joseph Smith’s. He doubtingly
asked, ¨Would you believe people who actually know Egyptian, or a so called
prophet Joseph Smith. ¨ I simply told him that I trust a prophet of God, Joseph
Smith, and that I have asked God if the Book of Mormon was true and God,
Himself, told me that it was true; therefore, I know that Joseph Smith was a
prophet and that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the true
church of God here on the earth. I have absolutely no doubts. I love how
anybody who really wants to know the truth can simply ask it of God and He will
manifest the truth unto him or her. It is incredible and no other church in the
world invites people to do that. I know the Book of Mormon is true and that it
testifies of Christ and of His church. It is so true!
Everything is
well in Zion, pues.
