 The restoration of the gospel is important because it shows how much God loves us. From the beginning of the time to up until now, God has always called prophets to help us so that we can be able to return to His presence and have His guidance every day in our lives. Because people gradually rejected the prophets and their teachings, there became an apostasy where there wasn't truth on the earth, where we weren't able to know the true gospel that Jesus Christ had taught us. In 1820, Joseph Smith, he was a young boy, but he wanted to know which church was true. So he asked God, and through his divine power, the gospel is restored, and we were able to have the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the earth again. Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon through the power of God, which helps us to be able to understand perfectly what God's gospel is. The Book of Mormon and the Bible support each other and really help us to know who God is and why we're here. I do have a testimony of this gospel, and I think my favorite thing about it is just how much it strengthens my relationship with the Savior. I know that regardless of how weak I am or how much I messed up, there's always hope that can be found in that He can give me strength every single day. I have peace in my life because I know that I'll be able to live with my family for eternity, and that God's always here with me.
