I live in the eastern United States.  Got sealed for eternity in the Salt Lake Temple in 2002 to my lovely bride.  Right now I am studying to be a computer technician.

My conversion to the Lord started when I was around eight years old.  I would read a child's version of the Book of Mormon and feel the Holy Ghost tell me what I was reading was good and true.

I attended a good ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and had many good examples of men and women who loved Heavenly Father.  My parents also taught me the gospel of Jesus Christ.  I can't recall when the desire to serve a full time mission began in my life, but by the time I turned nineteen years old, I really had a desire to go.  Before I left to serve a mission, I read the entire Book of Mormon again and had a few very powerful spiritual witnesses that I was doing what was pleasing to the Lord.

It was serving a full time mission that I really began to start understanding the teachings of Jesus Christ. You really learn by doing. “If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.” (John 7:17) After having the blessed opportunity of serving a mission, I came home to California.

When I was around twenty-four years in age, I went to a sacrament meeting I will never forget. During that sacrament meeting I had a vision. The vision the Lord gave me has helped me thru the doubts Satan pushes at me.

I can testify if you ask for a witness of the truth of the Lord, He will give it to you. As it reads in the scriptures:

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." Matthew 7:7-8

The Lord will answer in His own due time if you are sincere in heart.
