My heart is full!

The lord answers prayers I Know this without a doubt.  This morning I went to the temple to do baptisms for the dead and with a prayer in my heart was searching for an answer and answer in which I knew when I received no matter the outcome would bring me peace. As I walked into the temple I was greeted by wonderful temple workers who had the biggest and brightest smiles on there faces. After getting ready I was sitting in the conformation room pondering my question and one of the temple workers says I have a thought I would like to share. Of course I love thoughts and in my head I was hoping it had to do with  my question and of course it was. Although it wasn't a straight up do this or that it was an thought that was connected with my question and together it became my answer. Of course that's not were it ended. Afterwards I was sitting on the chapel benches when I opened the scriptures to a random page to find a verse that was conformation of my answer.
I love this gospel and I am so grateful for the opportunity the lord given me to grow up in the church. The Happiness I have because of the gospel is good enough to be apart of it but all that happiness comes because I know what I can and do have because of it. I just wish everyone knew about the gospel and the happiness they can have from it. Whenever I go do baptism I think of those on the other side waiting for there chance to be baptized and accept the gospel and probably how they wish they would have known or accepted it before they passed away. But what great joy it is to me to know that although they are gone I can still help them progress on the other side.
I would just like to bear my testimony I know this church is true. I know the lord answers prayers and that he loves each and everyone of us. I know the book of Mormon is true and so many answers can come from reading it. I know that Joesph Smith was a true prophet and through heavenly father and Jesus Christ he restored the church back on the earth O how grateful I am for him and his wiliness to take the persecution and never deny or back down. I love my family and I am so grateful to know I have them for eternity. I am so grateful for temples and the peace and happiness that I can feel when inside them and for all the work that is possible for  the living and dead because of them. I am so grateful for my trials although at the time of them I am not but after looking back they have and do help me grow and learn. I know the lord will give me nothing that I can't handle. I love this gospel and I am so grateful for it and cant wait for the day I get to serve the lord as a full time sister missionary. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
