  1. rengh, I know exactly how you feel! You, logically know it's true, I mean, it's so simple, right? But you don't feel it...inside. You should feel something right? It's the absense of the HG. I have gone through a similar thing and unfortunately you cannot have him as a companion and comforter when you are not living you life in accordance with the Gospel. I know it's hard, but think about it this way....you know it's true right?, and when we find the truth we are asked to act, so act. Pray that you will have the courage to act, and the desire to act, and the will to act. HF knows your heart and will see your sincere efforts. I have been where you are, and trust me, inactivity is no fun at all. Whatever you think you feel right now is nothing compare to how you will feel if you fall away. And it is so much harder to come back than it is to work through it. You can do this, because you wouldn't be going through it if you couldn't. Trust in what you know to be true and then act. Talk to your Bishop, I promise you will feel the sweet peace of relief and you will be glad you did. Good luck!
  2. Hello everyone! My name is Janet, I am a convert to the church. I was baptized with my family when I was eleven. Unfortunately, I have been inactive for about a year. Last week I was having a really hard day and felt so alone, I couldn't take it anymore. I prayed for help and guidance, next day two missionaries were at my work. Coincidence?? I think not. I have never doubted the truth of this church, I know it's true, no question. I have seen the evidence of it many times. I know my HF loves me and I love that He is so willing to answer my prayers when He knows I truely need Him. I have had a pretty rough life and have a really hard time feeling like a child of God sometimes. I have been in contact with the missionaries for about a week now and I went to church on Sunday. I am counting down the days till Sunday comes again. I feel like if I just make it a few more days I will be ok. Like I will be able to breath again once I am on the other side of those chapel doors. I would really like to meet people who share my beliefs, I never want to be inactive again!!! And I am soooooo grateful for the missionaries and the work that they do!
