Day 30

November 30.
Thankful to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I don't know where I would be without the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. I know that the church is true. I know God lives, that He loves us, and knows each of us so personally. I know that my life has been so blessed by being a member of this church. I hope and pray that I can be an example of Jesus Christ everyday and have His spirit with me to guide me in everything that I do.
