I love my Savior. There is nothing that I could ever love more than I love Him. He changes lives; He saves lives. Think about all of the things that He did for us...I will never truly be able to understand exactly what he went through, or how he could possibly love us so much. It is incredible.

I am so blessed to have Leah as my friend. It is the most amazing thing to be able to see how the gospel is changing her life. She has such great faith and the strongest testimony. I met with her at her house with the missionaries tonight. We talked about the reasons why we are baptized and how to know when we are ready to take that step (D&C 20:37), and of course the Word of Wisdom (D&C 89). She has such a strong desire to be baptized. What she said really hit home for me: that this would be a way for her to finally know that she has found the truth and for her to be completely cleansed from her sins. A new testimony is so pure and honest; it hasn't been revised to sound better, it hasn't been thought out, it's simply a statement of what is true. Testimonies are the most beautiful things in this universe.
She prayed at the end: I have never experienced a prayer like this one. I cried the whole way through it. The spirit in that small, cluttered room was the strongest I have ever felt. The gospel is the most powerful truth on this green earth. It saved my life, and it is saving Leah's.
And all God's people said: AMEN!

Oh, by the by: Elder Palmer is the greatest person I have ever met in my life. He loves Jesus Christ more than anyone I've ever met, and he just wants to tell everyone about it. He is a saint, a Mormon saint. I pray with all my heart that we will be friends after he leaves. He has changed my life. I LOVE MORMONS.
