My Dear Brothers and Sisters,
I have a strong testimony in the gospel of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I know Joseph Smith to be a true prophet sent from God to fulfill the promises given when Jesus was here on earth, and he was sent to restore the gospel in its fullness and I also have lots of testimonies to bear. For me, I believe strong in prayers in silence. I might not be so good to make prayers in public, but I do believe God to hear me when I pray. For one instance I know he did when my dear husband passed away in death. I did not know where one of our boys was and I felt so bad about it and I prayed to God to lead and guide him too. And he was the first one to come of all our children that was not here so I surely know that prayer was answered. When he told when he came he was first to board a train going in opposite direction from here but felt like someone told him he had to go to South Gate, as he was wanted there. So he came to try to give me comfort in my sorrow and I am so thankful to God that he gave me strength to carry on and once again I will bear my testimony. I know that God lives and will hear our prayers if we pray in earnest and with a humble heart. But one thing we must not forget to ask God if it is His will to let us have what we ask for. For my dear Brothers and Sisters, sometimes we pray for things not good for us so let us always remember that. And last, I pray to God that I may live so I can be worthy to meet my dear husband and be with him forever in the Celestial Kingdom and that I hope and pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
