Proud member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day saints — convert to the church of joy💫26💫daughter of God

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

I am a convert and reluctant to speak on my faith and what i believe in for fear of being ridiculed and rejected by people who don't share my beliefs. But recent events have opened my eyes and given me courage to take the sword of laban like nephi did. I am proud to be a member❤️

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

My best friend has been dealing with infertility for 8 years and today she was met with news that thr chances of them havih kids naturally are close to none. My heart goes out to her and i don’t know what to tell her or how to be there for her

@MarkWillcoxon @jmbrim3 @olgringoHancock I can’t deny that but Utah has the most beautiful winters so I can’t complain about the heat

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

Went to the temple earlier today and I have to admit, this is one of the most beautiful temples I have been to!

The church is true!!

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

@jmbrim3 @olgringoHancock I loved it!!! But I don’t love the Arizona heat

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

@RykerJackson97 I’ve only ever been to the Nairobi Kenya temple and the Mesa Temple blew me away!! You should definitely plan to go someday!

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

@tattered_bible @merrynick13 “I’m the victim”🙄

I got emotional over the silliest thing
————————————————
(Apologies in advance if you have no idea what I am about to explain)

My boys wanted to watch the last fight sequence in Avengers: Endgame. When Captain America didn’t come back to the present from returning the Infinity Stones to the past, my oldest (5) was confused. He said, “Why did he not come back? Now he’s old!”

I said: He found his love and wanted to grow old with her.

Him: Why wouldn’t he want to be Captain America anymore?!

Me: Because the greatest thing you can do in this life is find someone to love and build a family with.
———————————————————

I realized when saying this that I was currently living my past self’s prayer. A beautiful, faithful, and devoted wife with beautiful, smart, and caring kids. Sometimes life is moving so fast and you’re always looking for “the next best thing” that you forget to take a moment to thank God for the prayers he’s has answered for you. You’re likely living yours right now. Take a second to soak it in.

@Grownded I give it 5months, someone will make a video saying this is what we do

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

At a wedding today:

Officiant: Many here aren't members of our faith, but to briefly elaborate for their understanding, after the reception the bride and groom will be going to the Temple to consummate their marriage!

Bishop stands and whispers in his ear: it’s consecrate

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

@ThinkingJack67 I wish😢😂

[firstblacksmith @SmithWangari]

@JerseyGeneral34 😂😂it didn’t help that he didn’t correct himself
