He is here, JusT OpEn YoUr EyeS.

Hello everyone! Hope everything is going well for you. I have had many things happen since I last wrote and one thing I felt like I needed to share was on this last Wednesday. For mutual, or youth group, we watched a movie called "The Testaments." What a great movie. It reminded me that Jesus Christ really is there, we just can't see him.
     As I watched and my heart was filled with happiness and my eyes wetted I knew he was in the room with us. There is one part in the movie where Helamen went blind just before Christ visited the people, and Helamen's son who could see  Christ was telling him, he is really here and he is amazing he is everything that Helamen had imagined. And then Christ walks over and heals his eyes and Helamen see's Christ for the first time.
            As I watched and thought about the love he offers us and then I realized that we are like the blind man and the son was like the Holy ghost and then there was Christ. We can't see him, and we can't see the holy ghost but if we keep the commandments and stay in such a way where we can hear and feel the holy Ghost then he can tell us and bear record unto us how beautiful and amazing Jesus Christ is.
             The other day as I was kind of feeling down about something. I had to tell myself that this is only a short time. Earth is a dot on a string that stretches to infinity one way and infinity the other. I looked down at my hands as I type and I realize how amazing our bodies are. God gave us these bodies because we wanted them just like him. If you're on earth right now, which if your reading this the yes you're on earth that means in heaven YOU chose to come to earth. YOU chose to have the trials that you have. If you told God for example, "I want three kids," Then he'd say "Okay, but it's going to take you two husbands and one kid will be ill, is that okay?" And we'd either except or we wouldn't. Everything happening in our lives we excepted!! Here is the trailer for the movie. I LOVE THIS MOVIE!

remember nothing that has happened, or is happening is God's fault. You and I asked for everything and God told us what was going to happen, and we agreed. I testify to you that God is here, He is here and all you have to do is live in such a way ( no matter what else is happening) and you will be able to be guided down that path to Jesus Christ. And YOUR eyes will be opened and you will se God's face. I know this to be true, Please take time to think about it :)

Hello everyone! I knew I wanted to write in my blog today and I returned to my computer with intentions to release my inner thoughts to the public, so to set the mood I listened to 'Find you on my knees' by Kari Jobe. I love that song! As I listened my heart was filled with the spirit of God, whom I speak for today.  <3   
                                      

   At church last week as the quiet hum of the small portable heater filled the room with warmth and peace, one of our leaders headed to the front of the room with a look of 'I hope this goes well, spirit please guide me.' prayer on her facial expression. She smiled a very friendly happy smile as she introduced her lesson to us. She explained that this was the lesson Heavenly Father wanted us to hear.
   I saw the image on the board. A little angle stick figure on the top of a triangle and two more on the vertexes. I quickly recognized the three figures. The one on the top was Heavenly Father, the one on the left corner was Jesus Christ and the one on the right corner was the Holy Ghost. By having this information in the back of my mind, I then knew with a prompting that it was the Godhead.
    She then continued to teach as she asked, "Who knows the first article of faith by heart?" When everyone raised there hands in a silent rush she then said, "Let's say it together." Then she counted to three. Leaning forward in my seat I joined in to the wonderful true words I was saying. 
         "We believe in God the Eternal Father and in his son, Jesus Christ and in The Holy Ghost."

                               I remember reading the scripture Matt 3:16-17  it says, "16 And Jesus when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased."
  I have always known that this story was true since I was young like those girls in the video, but when I read that verse aloud, I really felt the trueness of The Godhead. I know that there is a Eternal Father and there is Jesus Christ who is his son and that there is a Holy Ghost who helps us daily by the will of the Lord. I know that they are three separate beings to the bottom of my heart. I know that God and Jesus Christ have bodies of flesh and blood just like he has given us. I cannot under any circumstance deny, that I have felt the power of God and influence of Jesus Christ through the Holy Ghost. I CANNOT DENY.
        Remember that he is with you and that no matter what mistakes you've made or thoughts you've thought, he loves you and will forgive you, if you just ask. "Ask and ye shall receive." You can receive help and guidance from God and Jesus Christ through the promptings of the Holt Ghost.
   Don't forget who you are and how much love is offered to you. He loves you and I send you my prayers. Thanks for reading my friends. :)

Hello! It's been a while since I last wrote. I apologize for that. Sorry!

Over thanksgiving I traveled to Utah to visit family. We got the opportunity to go to the temple for the lighting ceremony. As the cold weather chilled me from around my coat the hairs on my neck stood, but I felt a warm sensation inside as if shocked by electricity from the inside out. With each step closer to the temple, Each step closer to God's house.

 

  I didn't realize how important I was to my Heavenly Father alone until I realized that whether my family was there or not, I wanted to go to the Temple. I felt very close, like I was being drawn to the temple like a magnet, and no matter how chaotic is was staying with your family through the crowds, when you look up, you don't even notice. This is what I am going to relate to the Christmas season. Everyone is bustling and trying to get the best presents  for best prices and making sure everyone gets a fair amount and all the stress it causes parents...  LISTEN TO YOURSELF! Christmas is not about worldly gifts at all. Christmas is about Jesus Christ. He came into this world to die for you. He came to suffer so you can be forgiven and return to God in Heaven. Please watch this video:

 This year I challenge you to remember that you don't have to buy the biggest presents in the store, or the exact thing your child wants, because the greatest gift ever, was given to all of us already. And if you really want best parent award, you'd teach your children that. It's a very important for your children to grow up knowing the true meaning of Christmas, to really understand , Jesus Christ and God's love for all of us.
                               Merry Christmas!

ReMeMbEr hIs LoVe!!!:)

 A couple days ago I've noticed something in a little more detail than I ever have before. I realized how important people and their comments are to others. When someone says something like your cool its always nice. But what about the person next to them? Sometimes a simple complement to a person that feels left out could make there whole day. "Well duh" you may say but think about it. Have you ever been the younger sibling or friend that always looks up to the teen or the older one and you feel a little uncool. I know I have. I did a few days ago.
       okay so I told you already that I'm petite and short, and I have a friend a month older than me that is a beautiful height and looks hmm about 17. She is really pretty. There was a couple guys we were hanging out with, one was my brother. (Btw were all related). Anyway, so one of the boys is 16. He told my friend that she was finally old enough to be cool. The boy my age looked over at me. The whole time the older boys acted like the boy my age was nothing but annoying. I just felt like I was a 7 year old or something. I suddenly got a feeling that I needed to leave. I decided to excuse myself to the bathroom then I almost went back in the room but felt like there was somewhere else I needed to be. My feet carried me downstairs where is realized a family home evening was going on. The spirit was much stronger in that room I decided to sit and listen. It just so happened to be about the guidance of the Holy Ghost. And I got to share the scripture D&C 100:12 its about continuing your journey here and remembering that Gods love is always with you. I love that scripture!!
        Remember my post Rates??Labels.? well this post kind of go's along with that. Lets say Jen Frankfurter was rated by Ben Knack. Ben Knack was really cool and Jen was really sensitive to what people thought about her. Ben also rated Endna Lingle. He rated Endna an 8 she felt quite sad. She wanted a 10. Then Jen was rated a 6. What is that supposed to mean? Is Endna better? Am I ugly? All these thoughts go through a girls head. And the person may feel so bad that they wish they didn't even exist.
          As you can see a simple number changed the way she looked at herself. You may say "well I give everyone a high number" Then what's the point?! give them all a one and they'd feel the same. And to the rated: don't let a number of one person's opinion ruin you. You are so much more important than 1 or 1 million. Gods love is perfect and you are important. I know that God loves me no matter what my problems are. No matter what you look like and/or how you do things God loves you with such a love that you don't even have to feel down at all. YOU ARE IMPORTANT. I want you to know whether adult or kid or teen, no matter what anyone says or "rates" those don't matter. I'll give you one more example. So a scientist who has had 20 years of experience and at least 10 years of schooling makes a discovery. Then a guy who was really popular through high school but is now a landscaper says to the scientist "There's no way! I work in a yard everyday. I don't think that's possible." That's an opinion. There has to be scientific evidence to prove something scientifically. Think of you as the discovery, God is a scientist, and the person that bugs you or something is the landscaper.
                   You are so precious to God and to Jesus Christ.  He loves you and he knows that  you are so important to the plan. You are a very important part of the plan. I testify that if you remember how much God loves you, you will let nothing someone says change you.

"My own testimony grew as I learned about Heavenly Father and the Savior from the teachings and testimony of my parents, teachers, the scriptures—which I read diligently—and especially the Holy Ghost. As I exercised faith and obeyed the commandments, the Holy Ghost testified that what I was learning was true. This is how I came to know for myself."
—Robert D. Hales, "Eternal Life—to Know Our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ"

   I testify to you that if you really work and strive to develop your own testimony it will develop and you will know for yourself the truth

"Think of the effect temples have on their surroundings. They beautify inner cities; they shine from prominent hills. Why do they beautify and shine? Because, as the scriptures say, “Truth shineth,” and temples contain truth and eternal purpose; so do you."
