I don't know if it's the random food I ate tonight - instead of a real meal
or if it was this video I heard on someone's blog
that has my stomach gnawing at itself.
I have a problem with people church bashing. I am Mormon.
And I know the church is true, but I'm not going "prove" anything to you.
You find out those kinds of things on your own.
A lot of preachers will have discussions about how horrible "them mormons" are.
They don't understand, and it makes me really sad -
hence the gnawing of the stomach.
I don't expect people to believe and live the way I do - which honestly -
just comes with a higher standard.
I want you to understand, I do.
But if you choose to be closed-minded, at least have respect
and stop preaching false doctrine you think you understand.
Why do you hate - how can God want you to preach hate?
rhetorical.
We worship the same God. And we worship the same Christ.
Although you say they are the same person,
and I say they are the same in purpose as two separate beings.
The same purpose that keeps me living.
And if you believe there were prophets before our day,
why not now? Why would God spare His children today
of the wonderful blessings of having a prophet to lead and guide us?
I know, sounds crazy.
We teach happiness. Eternal happiness.
I've found the one thing that keeps me alive.
I think we all have to find that. I know it's true, and I know I'm lucky.
I can't explain the existence of the sun; but I feel it's warmth.
People can talk all day long.
But words - even when they make sense -
can get confusing or become too loud
It's the people too busy talking
who miss the quiet promptings of the Spirit
which conveys real truth.
As quickly as they come, words vanish
the piercing of your heart and mind
that can never be taken away.
Don't become overshadowed by your own pride.
My name is Kayla and I am Mormon.
I feel as if I'm as normal as they come, but then again the world says differently.
I didn't say I do everything right or that I even know what all is right.
I don't think anyone can say they do or know everything.
It's a matter of effort, and real desire of the heart.
I just want to position myself right
so that in life, when things come,
I'll be ready to hold on.
Joy is the wife of a good friend in my BYU class
she's adorable =)
He got lucky and he knows it.
