Lets see were to start. I met my soon to be husband(STBH) not knowing he was LDS. And we dated for a while and one day he told me that he was thinking of becoming Mormon. Oh man I had a fit. All I knew of them was that it was some sort of cult. well my STBH prayed for me. Well he asked God why did God have him fall in love with me if I was never to become a member. And he prayed that if I was the women for him, that, to please let me see the light and give the gospel a chance. Because by that time I let my STBH know that I would NEVER become a member. I would support him and come to church with him but I would never become one. At that time I did not want to give up drinking. I wasn't an alcoholic but I did like to drink when I went out. And if I became a member I wouldn't be able to have a drink if I wanted to.
Let me just say my STBH did not let me know he did this. Well that coming Sunday I heard a voice telling me that I had to go to church. So I got ready to go and I was leaving to go to the Methodist church and all of a sudden the voice told me that I had to go to the LDS church. Well I was flabergasted but I have always been very religious and I always try to listen to voices that I thought were just my conscious but now realizing that it was in fact the holy spirit. I go on the internet and try to find a nearby church. I called the number and Sister Clark answered the phone. I said " Please I would like to have some missionaries come by my house to teach me a lesson." She sounded so pleased and happy. And said "of course" She then took my information. And asked if I was going to come to the service. The service was so great I know that god had me go that specific day so I would see how much of a family this church was. It was right after the youth came back from a Treck. And they all came up and gave there testimonies. It was so beautiful I cried most of the time. I stayed afterword for the two classes. And it just seemed like everything was clicking and made sense. After all three services were done I wanted to have a lesson right there, I just couldn't wait. I just felt the spirit and I felt so wonderful and it just felt right.
And I did not let my STBH know right away what happened. I never wanted for him to think that I became interested in the church because of him. I did this for me =). And I never thought that he would believe me when I told him about the voice. but eventually I couldn't keep it for a secret for long. And I was surprised when he told me that he prayed for a sign from god that if I was the right women for him to please let me see the light.
I know that this church is true. And I thank god everyday for choosing me for this lovely man that now I can call my husband. And eventually we will be together for all eternity.Hope you all have a wonderful day and thank you for reading my little true story that happened with me and the holy ghost.
