Comments on: Week 5: Testify of God’s love https://temaghanastake.org/project/week-5-testify-of-gods-love/ The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Thu, 02 Feb 2023 08:13:04 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.6.2 By: Sis Essilfie https://temaghanastake.org/project/week-5-testify-of-gods-love/#comment-20 Thu, 02 Feb 2023 08:13:04 +0000 https://temaghanastake.org/?post_type=project&p=15647#comment-20 I testify that God’s love for us is very deep beyond human comprehension. That through His love He sent His only begotten son to die to save us. Again by this love He grants us the privilege to have increase access to The POWER of Jesus Christ through our baptismal and temple covenants. I know that when we keep our covenants this Power strengthens us to withstand trials, temptations and heartaches better and are enabled to have rest that comes only through Jesus Christ.

I testify that this Power also empowers us to resist sin and grow to love God and His beloved Son Jesus Christ more, lifts us above the pull of this fallen world by blessing us with greater charity, humility, generosity, kindness, self-discipline and peace.

I testify that Jesus Christ loves us and wants the best for us. I also love Him with all my heart. I know that this is His Church and He directs it, that the Temple is His Home on earth. All Commandments, Laws, Ordinances and Covenants are given by Him to prepare us for that glorious blessing of exaltation where we will one day dwell with our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ eternally. Of these l know and testify in the hallowed name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

His love is unfailing. He is always willing and ready to lead us and bless us, if we will allow Him. His love is eternal. That is the key reason why He sent His only Son to atone for us all; “For God so love the world, that He sent His only begotten Son”.

I testify that His love for us is so pure that is why he blesses us, even with challenges; “……Know thou my son that all these shall give thee experience and shall be for thy good”

I testify that Heavenly Father isn’t interested in saving only a few into His Kingdom; but all except ; “…they who are the sons of perdition, of whom I say that it had been better for them never to have been born”

I testify that He will encircle us in the arms of His everlasting love if we shall allow Him to “… gather us under His wings as a hen gathereth her chicken under her wings”. Of these I testify in the name of His Son Jesus Christ.

I testify of His unending love for all mankind. We can find joy in this life if we continue to obey His commandments and show love and compassion to others.

Our desires, faithfulness, and obedience invite and help us to discern His mercies in our lives.

I testify that he lives and loves us for who we are and what we would become if obey his teaching and his commandment. I know that he is our Redeemer and our savior. I have grown to feel his tender mercies in my life. And i testify that He lives and knows each of us by our name and can easily hear us as we pray to invite him in our life. May our hearts always be filled with gratitude for His abundant and tender mercies.

We are all His beloved sons and daughters!

I testify that His love for us is constant, even when we don’t feel it in our lives, when we make bad choices and when we assume that we are unlikely to be loved by Him again because of our mistakes.

I testify that as we make covenants with and obey Him, we will feel more of this love in our hearts and lives.

I also testify that we are able to retain this feeling of God’s love for us because of Jesus Christ and His gift of repentance.

I invite all to covenant with God, obey Him, repent when necessary and always feel God’s love!
