Recently, my life has taken a turn for the even-better. I was baptized on January 20th, and I couldn't be happier. The missionaries that taught me Sister Moore (http://mooreinmissouri.blogpsot.com) and Sister Porter are the most incredible people I have ever met. They teach me about the gospel, life, and myself every single day. I have grown so much as a person and I owe so much of that to them. They are some of the kindest, most genuine, selfless people I have ever had the opportunity to meet. I am so happy that they came into my life and I know we will be lifelong friends.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has brought so much joy and positivity into my life. I am beginning to study my scriptures each and every day and in doing that I feel closer to the Lord and I feel closer to myself...if that even makes sense. I've also began praying every night. Not the type of praying I used to do; half-hearted, while listening to the noise around me, and thinking about my day. No. I have been focusing all of my energy on prayer and it has become sort of a meditation for me and I love it. Christ has blessed me so much with these simple but heart-felt prayers. The other day at work I had to make a very difficult call to a customer-- this customer was irate and I was not looking forward to calling them. Before I made the call I said a quiet prayer to the Lord. To my surprise the client was not irate anymore and in fact they were very agreeable. It was such a pleasant call and I was so very thankful that I said that prayer.
Prayer is so powerful. Focus, pour your heart out to the Lord, believe in Him, and trust that He will always respond. It works. :-)
