Day 9 (Thursday) post

The topic for Day 9 (Thursday) is My Beliefs. This post is brought to you by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

I know I have a loving Heavenly Father who knows me perfectly, knows who I can become, and has provided a way for me to do so. I know that His son and my brother, Jesus Christ, also knows and loves me perfectly. He suffered for my sins and died and rose again so that I can have the opportunity to return home. The Atonement is amazing. I've used it many times in my life and I keep using cuz I make plenty of mistakes.
I know the scriptures (Bible, D&C, Book of Mormon, Pearl of Great Price) are the word of God. I also know that the prophets speak the word of God. I know that our current prophet, Thomas S. Monson, was called of God and speaks His will. I know that all of our prophets have been called of God, as have our church leaders. I know that Joseph Smith was called to restore the gospel.
I know that families can be together forever because of the blessings of the temple. I am looking forward to going to the temple next month. I am also looking forward to serving a mission so I can share my beliefs and teach others about the gospel.
