O Remember, Remember That These Things Are True

Ever since I was born I went to the LDS church whether I was brought there in the arms of my parents or I just went on my own. I was raised to the LDS church. It just always felt right being there and singing "I am a child of God" and learning more about him and his son Jesus Christ. But as time went on into my teenage adolescent years of life I really did wonder if the church I was attending really was the true church of God on the earth.

I got told many times that I needed to read the Book of Mormon and pray about it but I just never did it until one day I did and I knelt down in sincere prayer asking God if these things were true. I didn't receive an immediate answer and it kind of upset me but I kept on keeping on and read the Book of Mormon everyday until I reached Mosiah chapter 2 verse 41 which says" And moreover, I would desire that ye should consider on the blessed and happy state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they hold out faithful to the end they are received into heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state of never-ending happiness. O remember, remember that these things are true; for the Lord God hath spoken it. " when i read these words it was as if God himself was speaking to me and telling me "remember that these things are true" it was a definite answer to my prayer and I knew right then and there that the Book of Mormon was true and the church that it belonged to was true as well.
