"The Gospel is Simply Beautiful and Beautifully Simple."

I love the teachings of the gospel.  I know what I need to do to be happy.  As my mission president puts it, "the gospel is simply beautiful and beautifully simple."  We either follow Christ and are happy, or we don't and are not happy.  It is simple.  When we do make mistakes, we humbly turn to Chrisrt and use His sacrifice and repent.  It is our choice, we don't have to yeild to sin and evil.  God is our loving Heavenly Father; He will never turn His back on us.

Our ability to choose is our own.


2 Nephi 10: 23-24 reads, "Therefore, cheer up your hearts, and remember that ye are free to act for yourselves—to choose the way of everlasting death or the way of eternal life.  Wherefore, my beloved brethren, reconcile yourselves to the will of God, and not to the will of the devil and the flesh; and remember, after ye are reconciled unto God, that it is only in and through the grace of God that ye are saved."

Moroni 10: 32-33 reads, "Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness; and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ, ye can in nowise deny the power of God.  And again, if ye by the grace of God are perfect in Christ, and deny not his power, then are ye sanctified in Christ by the grace of God, through the shedding of the blood of Christ, which is in the covenant of the Father unto the remission of your sins, that ye become holy, without spot."

The invitation is to repent and come to Christ; be happy!  I love the gospel!  I am thankful for the life and sacrifice of my Saivior, Jesus Christ.  I know that He loves us!  I know that He lives, He leads and directs the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints through a living prophet on the earth today.  I invite everyone to find out this truth for themselves.  Read and pray about the Book of Mormon, this is how you can know for yourself that Joseph Smith was called by God to be a prophet.   http://lds.org/scriptures/bofm?lang=eng
