Testimony

I absolutely loved fast and testimony meeting today! I am SO glad I went and honestly paid attention. I must admit during these Sunday's I kind of tuned out, but I have made a promise to myself to really pay attention and I am so glad I did.

This week one of the missionaries serving in my ward got up and bore his testimony and I could hear Mark's words come through his. I started crying... almost bawling.

This is where my "You know your an MG if..." moment comes in. :)

This experience helped me realize the amazing work Mark is doing. The missionary said "I have a testimony of this church and that it is the only true church." Mark had told me that not too long ago. After hearing it so much, I think it kind of loses effect on you but today it definitely hit me and I loved it. It just reaffirmed everything that I believe and helped me realize everything that I am striving to become.

I love Mark and I can see myself being married to him for eternity. I cannot wait to be sealed to him in the temple. Whenever I think of this I get all teary eyed. :) It's very personal for me and I am excited for that day. :)

I just know this gospel is the true gospel. I have a testimony of this church and I KNOW Mark going on his mission was the best decision for him at this time. "Missionary- someone who leaves their family for 2 years so others can be with theirs for forever". How true this is. I love this church! I love it with all my heart. I know Heavenly Father is with me all the time and I know of the atonement and that it is real. I know we can put it to work in our lives and we can be forgiven of all our sins. How wonderful is that? To be wiped clean and be pure again. I love this. I know that families can be together forever and I am excited to start my own family when the time comes. I know these things to be true and I say this in the name of OUR Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.
