Testimony of Christ

I have an unshakable testimony of Christ. I know that this gospel can make anyone happier no matter where they are in life. I wish people could just see how amazing it is and actually use it because then their lives would be so much better and they could have so much happiness. Being a missionary is different than I thought it would be. I thought I would put on the badge and transform into another person but I'm definitely still me. It's just as a missionary it's a lot easier to see the gifts I've been given the biggest one being the gift of the Holy Ghost. It's something I've always had but hardly ever used. I'm learning how to listen to the Holy Ghost and trust in Christ more then ever. I know that if I'm keeping the commandments and do what I should be doing i don't have to doubt whether or not i should be doing something or talking to someone. The spirit is my guide. It's such a powerful gift that all baptised people have. We just need to exercise the faith to follow what He's saying. I'm am eternally converted to Christ and His gospel. He is my strength and the reason I feel like the happiest person alive. 

A scripture I love that helps me through trials is  D&C 121:7-9

7 My son, peace be unto thy soul; thine adversity and thine afflictions shall be but a small moment;
8 And then, if thou endure it well, God shall exalt thee on high; thou shalt triumph over all thy foes.
9 Thy friends do stand by thee, and they shall hail thee again with warm hearts and friendly hands.

"Thine afflictions shall be but a small moment." They may seem overwhelming now but they are going to make you into someone you never thought you could be, someone more like Christ.
