There Is a God in the Heavens

Dec 14

Dear Precious Gems,

I just want to testify right away that I know that there is a God in the Heavens. I know that he is our Father in Heaven. I testify that we are his children. I know that he was and is and always will be mindful of us.

I felt witness of it over and over again, that our Father in Heaven LOVES US!! I know it with all my heart. I have felt it over and over again as I pray, I feel His presence there. I know He listens to our every single prayer. Even when we believe he is not listening. He is ESPECIALLY listening then. Satan wants us to believe otherwise, but our Father in Heaven is listening. I know that he is constantly wanting to hear from us but most importantly speak to us. 

That is why we give him time in our prayers to let him communicate with us. Sometimes it comes in that moment. Sometimes it comes when we are reading a verse or speaking with someone or an impression or a thought. No matter how it comes. IT COMES. That is a promise we have received. When we communicate with him all that we are going through, we are able to receive the blessings.

This week I saw so many miracles and today I wished I had more time to express them all. But I will share one...

We were in a lesson with two wonderful people. They are recent converts and we were talking about the Plan more in depth about The Millennium. I remember that as Sister D was testifying at one point the spirit came in super strongly and testified of what she said to be true. It was at that moment the one person looked to me and said:

"That is so interesting! As she has been saying these things, I felt that I already knew all of this and I know what she has said to be true."

I looked at him and told him with great joy. "What you have felt right now is the spirit confirming what you have heard to be true personally."

He looked at me with great happiness and said the sweetest answer. "That's COOL!"

I know that we can constantly receive answers; if we are listening with our minds and our hearts, we can feel the spirit baring witness to us that we know it to be true.

I love this gospel. I love it with all my heart. It really hit me today the thought that how could I not have served a mission? I have been so blessed and am blessed everyday to gain a deeper relationship with my Father in Heaven and Savior.

I testify that it can be this way for everyone. If they give the time to him to speak with us.

Love you all!
