I am so grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. I definitely haven't taken advantage of it near as much as I should have, but I am looking to change all of that. I love my Heavenly Father and his son Jesus Christ, and I am so grateful and humbled to know that Christ atoned for ME. I have always heard about the atonement and how he did it for everyone, and believed in it and somewhat had a testimony of it, but I have not used it in my own life to know of a surety that he did indeed atone for ME. He loves me and wants the best for me. He knows exactly what I am going through and is there to help me pick myself back up when I fall.
I am so grateful for my friends and family. They are such good examples to me and I look up to each of them so much. I also know that they love me, and genuinely want the best for me, and I want the best for them.
I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the true Church, and through His gospel, we can return to live with him if we make the covenants that are necessary in our lives, and keep those covenants. I know that the Book of Mormon is true, it was written for us in this time, and the authors of it truly saw this dispensation and knew what we would be going through. I am so grateful for the Book of Mormon, it testifies of Christ and is the keystone of our religion because it testifies of everything that we know to be true.
I love this gospel, and the hope that it brings into my life, that I can be pure again and live with my Heavenly Father, and savior, Jesus Christ. I am grateful for eternal marriages, and that I can be with the ones I love for Time and All Eternity instead of those horrid words until death do you part.
I am grateful for modern-day prophets. Currently I am in love with a talk given by Jeffrey R. Holland in the April 2012 General Conference titled "The Laborers In the Vineyard" I recommend either reading it, or watching him give it on lds.org because anyone can learn something from this talk. I love this gospel, and I hope and pray that someday I can repay everything that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ have done for me, because they have done a lot, and everyday I am grateful for them. I say these things, in the name of my Savior, Jesus Christ, Amen.
