Isabelle's Testimony, March 2023

Oh, how the gospel has blessed me throughout my life. Oh, how the mere knowledge of Jesus Christ has opened my eyes to hope on even the darkest days. Oh, how I yearn to spread this knowledge to everyone who has never had the privilege of feeling the fulfillment of committing yourself to Heavenly Father. What could be more comforting than knowing that there is someone right by my side who loves me more than I could ever comprehend? Knowing there is a Savior who gave His life to give me mine!! Knowing that no matter the mistakes I make, no matter how many times I make them, I will ALWAYS be forgiven. And I will ALWAYS have a second chance. And a third, and a fourth.  And as many as I could think I’ll ever need! I am blessed to know that when I don’t feel like I can make it through, Jesus Christ already has, and He knows exactly how I feel.  Just as said by Elder Holland, “it is not possible to sink lower than the infinite light of Christ’s atonement shines”.

What a comfort it is to know that no one is ever too far gone. Heavenly Father is merciful, He understands. He looks at me when I betray Him and he just loves me. He wants the best for me. And since I’ve put in the work to know Him, He has blessed me with the desire to serve Him, to follow Him. Because that is how I show Him my gratitude, my loyalty. I am eternally indebted to the Lord for giving me this life, for giving His son to save me. I know that He loves us, and He has blessed us with the restored gospel on this earth. And how lucky we are to live in this time!! I am so grateful for the unchanging truth that lives in my heart. That He lives. 

In Jesus name I say these things. Amen
