In the spirit of what today means, I wanted to write a list of things I know to be true, my testimony of sorts. Lately I have been struggling with some major decisions in my life. I still am not a 100% positive on what the answer is but through it all there are some things I do know. I may not know my answer now but I do know that sooner or later it will come. If I continue to trust Heavenly Father and do what is right, it will all fall into place. I KNOW that we have a Heavenly Father that LOVES us and is there for us. I KNOW that he answers prayers. I KNOW that these answers may not come immediately but they do come. I KNOW that even though I may stray or do wrong, He is there for me. I KNOW that we have a Savior that atoned and died for us. I KNOW that we can return to our Heavenly Father and we have the opportunity to choose right and have our place in the Celestial Kingdom right next to him. I KNOW that we can be reunited with those who have passed before us. I KNOW that I WILL see them again. There IS life after death and I am grateful for that knowledge. I KNOW that everyone we meet will influence us in some way, it is up to us to choose whether we let it effect us. I KNOW that I have a family that LOVES me and is there for me, no matter WHAT may happen. I KNOW that I have a Heavenly Father and Savior that will NEVER leave me and want to hear from me. I KNOW that I have a LOT more to learn and I will stumble but I always have a place to return. I KNOW my Heavenly Father LIVES. I KNOW that at some point we will all gain our testimony. Mine is still growing and it comes in little pieces at a time but like it says in the scriptures-line upon line, precept upon precept. I KNOW that I have a place and role in this world and I KNOW that Heavenly Father will be there for me every step of the way in my journey. I KNOW I have the fullness of the Gospel in my life and have Latter Day leaders who receive revelation. I KNOW that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is here and it is REAL. This is what I KNOW. Like I said, I still have a ways to go but with the Savior, Heavenly Father, and family by my side I can get there. I have an eternity to become perfect and have a life here and now to start preparing for it...
