Trembling Soul-andy

On the evening of the Father's and Son's I had the opportunity to talk a little bit to the priesthood holders in our ward and in the twelfth ward. My Dad asked me to do so. He also asked me if I would focus on the importance of the priesthood to me while I was growing up.

I talked a little bit about the opportunity that young men have to use the priesthood and how i really feel that they should take advantage of those opportunities. After about 3 minutes of baring my testimony I sat down among the crowd of fellow men. I immediately felt the power of the Holy Ghost overwhelm me. It had been over a year since I took the opportunity to bare my testimony and it felt amazing. I was brought to tears by the power I felt. Not only was the spirit so strong to bring me tears and because of the absence of my testimony for so long, my soul trembled. It was as though I was relieving myself of all the evil and uncleanliness that had built up inside of me. My bosom was then filled with a warm, comforting sensation that reminded me of the happiness that is promised to us when we make the right decisions in life. I am truly grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and that it has been fully restored to the earth. This knowledge is what keeps me going daily, I know with Faith in our Savior that anything can happen. No man can enjoy true eternal happiness without the blessings of the gospel and the Savior as his guide.

I cannot wait until the day that I am sealed for all time and eternity to my beautiful Megan. That will easily be the best day of my life so far...until then, that day WILL be June 6, 2009.
