My Testimony
In a not so recent "crisis of faith" my understanding of many things changed and my testimony was all but completely shattered. It was shaken right down to the core which is all that survived in tact. Yet that is the most important part of my testimony.
In my youth I came to know through the Spirit that The Book of Mormon is the word of God. It is a volume of scripture written for us in our day. It is a testament of Christ and we would do well to study it, learn from it, grow from it and implement the things we learn there in our lives. There is a great depth of understanding there that requires more than a cursory reading and can only be gained through the Spirit.
I know that Joseph Smith was and is a prophet of God. I feel the power of God in his words and teachings.
And more recently a reconfirmation of my testimony of Christ. Again through the Spirit it has been reconfirmed to me that Jesus is the Christ the son of the living God. He is the Savior and Redeemer of the world.
It may not seem like much but it is simple and powerful and has been embedded in my soul. I know these things to be true. I know them through the workings of the Spirit of God.
I say all this in the name of Jesus, The Christ.
Amen.
