Your Spiritual Journey: You Know Enough

Our spiritual journey is the process of a lifetime. We do not know everything in the beginning or even along the way. Our conversion comes step-by-step, line upon line. We then remain steady and patient as we progress through mortality. At times, the Lords answer will be, You dont know everything, but you know enough—enough to keep the commandments and to do what is right.

I've been doing a lot of soul searching as of late. I don't know that I can ever place faith beyond what I can see and touch. But I will say, I have nothing but absolute respect for the LDS church. What is it to truly be bold in your faith? I think it is more that just standing for what you believe in. I think it is also responding with patience, understanding, and forbearance to others when they seek to tear down your faith. If God spoke once, why not twice? Why not a thousand times?

"Vital religion cannot be maintained on the theory that... the Bible is the only evidence that our God is a living, revealing, communicating God. If God ever spoke, He is still speaking. He is the great I am, not the great He was." -Rufus Jones

He does speak today, sirnathan. Even a thousand times. You say you don't know that you can ever place faith beyond what you can see and touch. You ask what it is to be truly bold in your faith...you can know if you want. I think you do.

I totally understand where you are coming from and I am lds ... Its tough at times for me to really place my trust in unseen things as well... I think it is part of life for all of us to go through this, some go through it more then others. The one thing I know what it has done for me is become more compassionate for others and more caring and willing to serve others ! :) If that has changed me then I like to think god is shaping us.

What a blessing to have these Mormon Messages. I just happened to find this web sight by accident, but the messages were not a accident, but a gift. Thank you.

@66frankjames how are the promises or offers any sign of the truthfulness of the existence of god?

[66frankjames]

I do testify to anyone reading this that if you belive that god guides your life then there is a reason why you are reading this now. I explored every religion out there in my 45yrs and none other offers what this one does nor promises what this one does. God be with you.

Can a Mormon tell what it takes to have peace with the heavenly father and enter into heaven?

We may not be able to see or touch what we believe in, but we can feel it through the power of the Holy Ghost. That's how we know! And I know that you can receive the same witness. :)

@sirnathan You described everything I've been trying to explain for 3 years as I've tried to join the church. I finally did (with my parents there) and they've finally seen what you just said. Why NOT?! This is a good thing. A beautiful thing. Keep soul searching and I hope you find what you deserve :)

[mrshapson]

why not believe? there are so many reason TO believe but why not believe? do we all need to be drug through terrible times and then have a miracle happen for us to believe? I do not need to have a miraculous miracle to believe in the church of Jesus Christ of later day saints. Just test it. it will show you that it is true....
