Gratitude for my Savior

As a child of Heavenly Father, I lived my life as many others. I believed in God. I believed Jesus Christ was my Savior. I attended church. I tried to help anyone who may have a need. However, I did not have the "personal relationship" with my Savior and Heavenly Father until hearing the Gospel of Jesus Christ in it's pure form. We wander around aimlessly, with good intentions;professing what others should or should not do. Mankind takes the Bible and relies on his intelligence and hours of study to determine his qualification to interpret, then takes his interpretation and relays it to those who will listen. Some of what is said may be right on target, however, some will be way off base. Ultimately, the flock becomes stagnant..because they rely solely on someone else to feed them. This is where the distraction comes in. Our Savior told us he would leave his Spirit to be with us. I want to profess my sincere gratitude for that Gift.

Jesus left the Holy Ghost with us as our comforter, the testifier of truth and our spiritual GPs. He gave us a "spiritual cell phone" to communicate with him, however, most never pick up that phones up because they take the word of someone else (pastor, preacher, priest).
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints teaches the Gospel in it's pure form, however, the church also teaches us to accept nothing blindly, petition the Holy Spirit on all matters...We should never take something and rely on our literal interpretation of what we read. We are instructed to get on our knees and ask. Do not ask your preacher, ask your Father. I am so thankful for this gift.

We are also taught the intimacy of our relationship with Heavenly Father and Our Savior is not limited..It is a direct result of our desire.
Jesus Christ is my Savior, my Redeemer. I know He died on the cross for me and all humanity. I know He lives. I know He was and is the perfect example for us. I know Heavenly Father granted free agency to allow for unlimited Spiritual growth. I love the peace and joy provided by the gospel and the safety net provided by the Holy Ghost.


I truly want the entire world to know that even though we may not know everything, we know enough to strive to be obedient and all then all else falls into place.
