Favorite

I feel like I go through favorite scriptures so fast!! I will read something great in  my personal study that will become a favorite and then the next day read something that will be my new favorite! So I thought that today I would share my new favorite scripture from my morning study. 2 Nephi 4:19-20, "And when I desire to rejoice, my heart groanth because of my sins; nevertheless, I know in whom I have trusted. My God hath been my support; he hath led me through mine afflictions in the wilderness; and he hath preserved me upon the waters of the great deep." I have never had to sail across an ocean but there are other trials that require just as much faith on my part! Just like Nephi and his family today requires us to put our trust and faith in the Lord!  Trusting in the Lord will lead us through our trials!! He will give us strength! As a missionary we knock on a lot of doors!! We talk to a lot of people and a lot of people turn us away! It has difficult to pull your boots up and keep knocking!! But we can do it because our trust is in the Lord and we know how important our message is!! He helps us by giving us those people who are interested and want to listen to our message!! I love this message of the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ! The testimony that I have keeps me trusting in the Lord and pushing forward! I know that the Savior lives! I know that the Prophet Joseph Smith restored Christ church to the Earth today!! I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is Gods church on the Earth today! I love the scriptures! I am thankful that I can have favorite scriptures that keep me moving forward!! I know that as we put our trust in the Lord that he will guide us through our afflictions just like Nephi wrote! What a blessing that is!!
