How lucky am I?

Yesterday was such a sweet, testimony building day. Sunday's have always been one of my favorite days of the week because you get the opportunity to go to church and spend 3 hours learning about the gospel and Heavenly Father's plan for us. I am so blessed to be brought up into this church. I had the opportunity to attend my friend's mission report. It was so neat to hear him speak and to be able to see that change he had while in Argentina. It was cool to hear these stories of him spreading the gospel and how they changed his life. I really am grateful to have the Holy Ghost with me and to be worthy enough to hear the spirit whisper to me telling me that all this is true.
I just want to bare my testimony that I know that this church is true. I know that I will be able to return to live with Heavenly Father again and that I will be able to be sealed to my family for all time and eternity. I know that Joseph Smith was a prophet and that President Thomas S. Monson is our living prophet of today. I know that the Book of Mormon is true. I know that the power of the priesthood is real. I know that it can heal us when we have the faith we need. I know that I am a child of God and Heavenly Father knows me and loves me. I know that Christ atoned for my sins as well as everyone elses. I know that when we pray to Heavenly Father with a sincere heart, we will recieve answers in His time. I bare this to you in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen.

Mothers day is coming up and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate my mom. She is truly my best friend! I'm so grateful for her and know for a fact that I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. I know that my grandma and all the other mother-like figures have something to do with who I am today as well. A big thanks goes to all you mothers!
