I'm learning!!

For this week's project, I will be discussing how the things I am learning have brought me closer to Christ.

I would like to start off by saying that just being at BYU has brought me closer to Christ!! The spirit is here on campus and you can honestly feel it as you go from class to class or even just walking on to campus!! It is amazing that being at college can help me grow closer to Christ but it has!!
Taking Book of Mormon class at college is an honor for me! I have never really read the scriptures to try and better my life or to better understand them...I did it more because that is what was expected of me! It is such a testimony builder to me to have these great teachers and students share their knowledge and testimonies with me!! I love hearing what others have felt and learned from their own scriptures study! I haven't always been as good at reading my scriptures as I should be and I know that I have felt the void in my life because of that. I have learned so much thus far from being here and from this class that it is mind boggling to me!!
This class has brought me closer to my Heavenly Father and Savior Jesus Christ than I ever thought it could!! I am recognizing more and more the wonderful gifts that I have been given by my Heavenly Father, and I am realizing how much I need Him in my life!! Without Him and the knowledge that I have, I would be lost!!
Being in this class and having this gospel in my life is such a blessing to me and I am honored to have the opportunity to come here for an education and to better my knowledge of this gospel and the Book of Mormon.

I shared this essay with a person at work and it is amazing to me that we all learn and feel similar!! I learned that as members of the church, we are all battling the same trials and conflicts and we are all in need of our Heavenly Father!! It is important to me, now more than ever, to realize that everyone needs help and is going through the same things as I am and that we can help each other through our trials.
