Having faith to walk cross The Atonement bridge.

Lately I have been thinking about the atonement a lot. Atonement is one of the things that I really think about the most. The Atonement is part of our heavenly fathers plan, and Jesus Christ is in the center of the plan. When I think of the atonement I think that can be forgiven of our sins and that we can repent. The Atonement is something that I think about like everyday. What would have happened if the atonement never happened? Well we wouldn't have been able to dwell with our heavenly father again or we wouldn't have been able to have a sins forgiven and we wont have the repentance process. 

When I think of the atonement I think of that I'm standing on the edge of a canyon and That the only way to get to the other side I need to have faith in our lord Jesus Christ then we will be able to get across. I just think the atonement as just a bridge that can help us across. When I have faith in Jesus Christ I will be able to walk across the deep open cavern of a canyon and I just think that the atonement as an invisible bridge to go across and get to Jesus Christ and his father.

The Sweetest Thing is Listening to the Spirit!

I've been thinking about a lot of things but lately, I've been thinking about the Holy Ghost or sometimes we like to call the the Holy Spirit. When I talk about the Holy Ghost I think about a small voice talking in my head. Also when I am thinking about the Holy Ghost I feel really good inside. When I talk about this I get really emotional and a lot of people do to. So one question that I get asked a lot is what is the Holy Ghost and what dose it do? Well the Holy Ghost is one of the members of the God head and he is a personage of spirit and not of flesh and bones. What does he do exactly that is a good question that people ask well he helps us differ the right and the wrong and helps us with the truth he reveals us truth that heavenly father wants us to know. When we are baptized after we get what is called the gift of the Holy Ghost and he is a constant companionship and helps us out any way we can and that we can make the right decisions in life. Ezra Taft Benson says: "Spirituality-being in tune with the spirit of the Lord-is the greatest need that we all have." What President Benson is saying is that when we are tuned in with the spirit we will have the constant companionship of the spirit. The spirit is described in the scriptures as not a loud voice, nor harsh, not a voice of thunder, neither a voice of great tumultuous, but rather still and small, of perfect mildness, as if it had been a whisper, and it can pierce the very soul and can cause the heart to burn. The spirit doesn't get our attention by shouting but by whispering into our hearts and our minds and our souls. Obedience opens the door to the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost.The Holy Ghost inspires virtue, kindness, goodness, tenderness gentleness, and charity.  Doctrine and Covenants 130:22-23

22 The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man’s; the Son also; but the Holy Ghost has not a body of flesh and bones, but is a personage of Spirit. Were it not so, the Holy Ghost could not dwell in us.

 23 A man may receive the Holy Ghost, and it may descend upon him and not tarry with him.
