Larry 1:1 - 1st Article of Faith - Godhead
1. I believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
This to me is the God, Elohim, and His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, Jehovah, and the Holy Ghost, Holy Spirit of Light and Truth, the Comforter.
The image that comes to my mind as I ponder Him, and Them is this one. We have been taught that They were very similar in appearance and that in this particular instance Jesus Christ was introduced to the Prophet Joseph Smith in what we commonly refer to as 'The First Vision' as He stood on the right hand of God the Father.
Believing in Them as I do, I try my humble and failing best to keep Him first in my life and to pray to Him daily with love and gratitude for all of my blessings. I am so thankful to Him and the Savior that together they have implemented fully and perfectly this great Plan of Happiness for all of us if we but choose to accept it and follow His guidance and obey His commandments which will lead us along a safe path to return to Their presence along with our family members to partake of eternal life with them!
I know He loves me and is mindful of me and has blessed me with those people and experiences in my life that will work together for my best good in the long run.
The Savior's atoning sacrifice is such an amazing accomplishment to bless my life. I know I can scarcely comprehend it but to the point of knowing it was infinite and eternal and covers me and all others somehow if we will just accept Him and follow Him.
I have felt the supreme blessing of the gift of the Holy Ghost in my life on many occasions when I have felt promptings, peace, and strength to move forward and onward in spite of my weaknesses.
I love them all and anxiously anticipate learning at the appropriate time how all of it works so perfectly, both the mortal and the spiritual ministries which they move forward by and through other devoted followers and believers.
