Testimony

I believe in Jesus Christ. I know He lives. I know He is MY savior. I know that He knows me by name. He knows my weaknesses. He knows my strengths. He knows my love for salty food and hatred of waking up before 6 a.m.. He knows that I struggle with uncertainty. He knows my every aspiration even though I don't always tell Him about them.

I talked to Him, face-to-face, in the life before this one. I fought on his side faithfully in the War in Heaven. I still fight on that side today, in that same war, for agency, for freedom, and for our Father in Heaven.

I am His little sister. He knows me. He gave his life for my happiness. He wants me to come Home.

And when I look up at the sky, and think of the vast, awake and beautiful universe that we're all apart of, I can't help but feel humbled and grateful for this great big thing called life. I don't understand how people can look up to the firmament and not know that there is a God and that He loves us. I know that the purpose of life as a whole is to be tested, and make our way back to our Father. How grateful I am that we belong to a Heavenly Father, who is kind enough to send us to a world as beautiful and breath-taking as the one we're in. I feel His mercy in the flowers, I see His love in my baby brother's smile, and I hear His voice in the sound of thunder.

I know Christ lives and stands on the right hand of God, and that they both love me more than I can comprehend. My heart is full of gratitude for that knowledge and the peace it gives me.

Please take the time to watch and listen to this.
