Hi
"I love the words of President Brigham Young, who said, 'I feel like shouting Hallelujah, all the time, when I think that I ever knew Joseph Smith, the Prophet whom the Lord raised up and ordained, and to whom He gave keys and power to build up the kingdom of God on earth' (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Brigham Young [1997],343).
"To this fitting tribute to our beloved Joseph, I add my own testimony that I know he was God's prophet, chosen to restore the gospel of Jesus Christ in these latter days. I pray that as we celebrate the 200th anniversary of his birth, we may learn from his life. May we incorporate into our own lives the divine principles which he so beautifully taught--by example--that we, ourselves, might live more completely the gospel of Jesus Christ. May our lives reflect the knowledge we have that God lives, that Jesus Christ is His Son, that Joseph Smith was a prophet, and that we are led today by another prophet of God--even President Gordon B. Hinckley."

Just saying hi. Feel free to read previous posts for, hopefully, spiritual inspiration and some knowledge and fun. Love and hugs. God be with you, and pocket glomps from us all! ^_^

Isaiah 55

&

"It is both the duty and privilege of the Latter-day Saints to know that their religion is true.
"Let every one get a knowledge for himself that this work is true. We do not want you to say that it is true until you know that it is; and if you know it, that knowledge is as good to you as though the Lord came down and told you.
"It is a special privilege and blessing of the holy Gospel to every true believer, to know the truth for himself."

~ Brigham Young, in Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Brigham Young [1997], 317
