Faith + Water = Giant Plant

Faith is like a little seed:

If planted, 

it will grow.

     Our Father in Heaven wants us to have faith in him. Before we live on earth we lived in Heaven as his spirit children. We did not need faith in Heavenly Father before this life because Heavenly Father was right in front of our faces. It was not faith we had before this life but a perfect knowledge. 

     

     To make sure that our faith was in our Heavenly Father, he sent us to earth. On earth we are to get and take care of our body and then have faith in our Heavenly Father and do all things that he asks of us. Very simple I would assume but some the times it is hard to have faith. Sometimes we question and second guess our faith. Just because don't have some marvelous experience we automatically think that there is something wrong with us but that is not the case. Sometimes our faith is like a gradual sun rise that come slowly. In due time, the sun illuminates an entire area almost un-noticeably. The same process works with our faith. Faith will slowly come into our life. Shining light on that matter which was confusing at first.

Always remember that in the Lords time 

our faith can go from a seed to a plant,

all in the blink of an eye.

Being a Family

     Some of the greatest memories in life come with the family. In the Gospel of Jesus Christ the belief is that "The Family is ordained of God. Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ." Who wouldn't want happiness with their family in this life. The blessing of the knowledge that families can be together for ever is monumental. It is a joyous knowledge to have but how much better would it be to have a promise from God that your own personal family can be tied together by the power of God forever as long as you live a Christ-like life. How amazing would that be?
     I don't know everything but I do know. There is a promise that is made in the last book of the Old Testament in Malachi and it is a promise that is miraculous.

 5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming 

of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:

6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, 

and the heart of the children to their fathers, 

lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

     Elijah has came and the power to tie families together has been given to Thomas S Monson. "There is no man upon the face of this earth who has the right to go forth and administer in any of the ordinances of this gospel unless the President of the Church [Thomas S Monson], who holds the keys, allows it."  I have seen that promise come true in my own life. I have seen a new love towards each other as family members remember the promises they have made. It is an glorious gift from God. It is a gift that God wants everyone to have.
