Day 7.

"He is the light and the life of the world; yea, a light that is endless, that can never be darkened; yea, and also a life which is endless, that there can be no more death."

What does the verse mean to you? 
One thing that comes to my mind is baptism. Having almost read to the end of Mosiah, one chapter that stood out to me was Chapter 18. Baptism is a convenant with the Father. Through this covenant you take upon the name of Jesus Christ and promise to keep his commandments and serve him. Baptism is also a huge blessing! Concerning myself, I was converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in August of 2010. After I had met with the missionaries for my first time I knew there was something pulling at my heart. I had a desire to learn, a curious mind, and I wanted to know more about this church. When I was baptised, I could feel a change within myself. I loved easier, I helped people more and I desired to know God more. Learning doesn't stop after baptism. Learning begins at baptism, at least for me. If it weren't for the church, in the past year and a half I have been a member, I couldn't have gotten through some of the things I have. In my last blog I talked about friendship and how Heavenly Father brings people to us that we need. I was brought to this church for a reason. The people of the church are amazing and Heavenly Father works so much through them! In the Book of Mormon, Mosiah 18:9 says, "Yea, and are willing to mourn with those that mourn; yea, and comfort those that stand in need of comfort, and to stand as witnesses of God at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye may be in, even until death, that ye may be redeemed of God, and be numbered with those of the first resurrection, that ye may have eternal life—".
Truly I have been blessed by this church. While I am on my mission, I am excited to be able to tell people about Christ and to bring people to the church! I love this church, I love the people of this church. I love Heavenly Father and I love His plan for me! I know He has a plan for me and I am truly excited to find out what that is!
I say all these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
