I'm working towards a Bachelors in Computer Science. I was recently married to my wonderful wife. I enjoy spending time with friends and family and admiring the great outdoors. I also have a job as a web developer.
Inside of all of us is a desire for something higher and better than ourselves. I have felt that strongly since I was a child. In the beginning of my teenage years I was going the way of many rebellious youth, but it never once brought me happiness. One day, riding home on my bicycle, I began to cry because I was not happy and felt like I had nothing to look forward to. Though I was attending church every week with my family, my ears, heart, and mind were closed to the Spirit of God. That is until I began a serious search for peace, happiness, and meaning in my life. My Sunday School teachers led to sincere prayer and a study of the scriptures, especially the Book of Mormon. My eyes were opened and I began to hear the Spirit of God whispering to me in many ways. The three hours of Church transformed from three hours of suffering into three hours of divine learning. The Lord began to guide me and shape me. He helped me conquer pride and selfishness and discover hidden talents. I am happy. I am at peace. My life has meaning. I have hope of returning to live with God and my family after this life.
Making right choices brings blessings into our life. We invite the Spirit of God to be our companion which strengthens us and allows us to see what is right and wrong more clearly.
Hope is the assurance that something will come in the future. It is knowing that through Christ you can be saved and be reunited with your loved ones. It is knowing that since Christ overcame everything, he can help you do the same. It is knowing that even when life is dark and unbearable, Christ can bring you light.
Currently I am the financial clerk in my ward. I make sure that an accurate record is kept of all donations. I also serve weekly in a temple, assisting people in sacred ordinances such as a baptisms for the dead. I am also assigned to watch over two families who live nearby. Mostly, I live the commandments and strive to love all around my as Christ would. I try to have compassion on the weary and suffering and do what I can to list them up. We are taught that unto whom much is given, much is required. Well, I have been given much, and so I try to give much in return. I know that all I can give to God is my time and talents in helping bring happiness and salvation to his children.
