What a Glorious Gift

Tonight Adam and I went to a baptism. I love being out here because there is a new member every couple of weeks. J was so fixed on watching the boy in the water.
The baptism talk really reminded me of something. She began to tell her son how important baptism is. She turned to 3rd Nephi and said, "When Jesus came to the America's he didn't mess around. The very first thing he did was preach baptism among the people." If I truly am trying to be like Jesus I cannot be afraid to invite people to repentance and baptism. Also, I am so grateful for the gift of the Holy Ghost. I cannot and will not even try to imagine how my life would be without it. I love that Heavenly Father can guide me so easily through the Holy Ghost. I can feel when something is right and I can feel when I've done something wrong. My life would be completely messed up with out this powerful gift. Even in my darkest hours I was able to feel the spirit testify, it all depended on if I would follow. How grateful I am for the Gift of the Holy Ghost!! It rescues me all the time!!

I was baptized January 14, 1994

I WILL FOLLOW!!
