Axiomatic Aphrorisms
Having just finished again watching the documentary, "Joseph Smith, An American Prophet", I am even more grateful that God saw fit to lead me to the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ.
It especially boggles my mind that such a opinionated, rebellious, selfish and stubborn spirit such as mine ever could have been led to such glorious and eternal truths and principles.
It was fortunate indeed for me that I was led and blessed to make this best decision of my life when I was much younger, and much more open to new ideas.
Although I consider myself to be a poor example of a good Latter-day Saint, I nevertheless remain so grateful that "...if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble...for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then I will make weak things become strong..." (Book of Mormon: Ether, Chapter 12, Verse 27).
And so it has been for me.
I don't know much, but I do know that "...it is by grace (of Christ) that we are saved, after all we can do." (Book of Mormon: 2 Nephi, Chapter 25, Verse 23).
Further, I have an unwavering testimony that Jesus Christ literally leads and directs The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Of that, I have absolutely no doubt whatsoever.
