Kristina: Mormon.

Hi, I'm Kristina

I'm a friend. I'm a writer. I'm a Mormon.

About Me

Well, to tell you the truth I'm still growing and learning who I am. I think I have my self figured out, then I learn something new. Such is life, isn't it? What I do know is I love my family, I believe in treating all people with respect, and learning is my biggest hobby. Most importantly I know that God is my heavenly father and Jesus Christ is my savior.

Why I am a Mormon

My parents were both born into a member family, and so was I. I am grateful to my parents for raising me right. Still though, at some point, every one of us must decide which path we want to take. I have chosen this path beacuse I know it is the only way to return to God. He designed it. God is watching over us taking care of us. I know that many times I have felt the tender mercies of the Lord. I know that he is guiding my every step and, as long as I listen to him, I will forever be safe despite life's chaos.

I love this church because of the correct and clear understanding it gives me of the Savior's atonement. I have faith in a Savior who loves me and has the desire to see me home again. Through the atonement of Jesus Christ, I know I can return to live with God again. I say this because I know that this is God's one chruch on the earth with his power and authority. It is the same church Jesus Christ established when he was here 2000 years ago. It teaches Christ's teachings-- not those of men.

I know all this because the Holy Ghost has touched my heart and confirmed that this is way to eternal life-- a joyful life that never ends. This understanding has brought security to my life and by living it I stay hopeful and optimistic despite the uphill, windy, rainy days.

Personal Stories

Please explain the part prayer plays in your life?

I try to have a very close relationship with God. I believe that He is the father of my spirit and just like my father here He loves me and wants me safe and sound at home.

But, at the same time, he wants me to learn and grow. That is why he has sent us here. There are a lot of ways to know what to do, but prayer has a personal meaning in my life.

I tend to be very private and closed when I have a problem. Instead of talking to all my friends and asking for advice I pray. When I pray, I talk as if he were there in the room listening to me. I know he is listening to me. And if I listen, if I pay attention to what I feel, I can know what he's saying back. The Holy Ghost communicates with me the direction from God with feelings in my heart and ideas in my mind.

You may think I'm crazy, that God would speak to me, but I believe that he loves each and every one of us. He is there waiting to help us. Just try praying with purpose and a strong desire to know, and I know that you'll feel his love. It will envelop you in a warmth that you cannot accurately describe.

How I live my faith

Wouldn't it be nice to say, "How don't I live my faith?" But, I recognize how imperfect I am! Still though, I hope that people can come to know Jesus Christ and his teachings by how I live.

I live my faith by being active in my countries politics. I treat everyone respectfuly. I share what I have because I know it's only sharing the gifts I have already been given. I keep a smile on my face; life isn't that bad. I also collect uplifiting quotes and take lots of pictures in order to constantly remind me of what life is really about-- finding joy in the journey.
