My Mormon Friend Pretended

My Mormon friend pretended to me that she was just a Christian for 8 months!? (I am Christian) She never told me the truth because she thought I would not like her any more. She thought that I would not execpt her religeon. She was wrong! I have to admit that her Mormon preaching was over whelming if not a little intimidating to me… I was pondering back and forth about how I would react to it. How I would possibly talk to her about “God” from now on???

I always was a bit scared of her preaching to me about the Book of Mormon. Even weeks later she still worried me when she spoke of the Book of Mormon, that is until one day she sent me an email which had a very, very long page of mormon scripture on it and underneath that she said; “I hope I haven’t over whelmed you. It’s just that I have never felt so much freedom before… As I believed that I could never speak to you about this… Talking to you is like walking on fresh snow. I am going to leave foot prints that will last forever!”

This email that she sent me nearly had me in tears. As I read it I felt an over powering energy that caused all my issues and grudges towards the Mormon faith just to dissapear. I then realised that she was just telling me about the one thing that made her so happy in life – she was trying to share with me her salvation! How sweet is that? I really apreciate her now. Even though I will never be a Mormon I will always be true to her and other Mormons too. She knew that I had recently left my Christian Methodist church because of a fued with the “contradictive” ministers.

She was trying to give me a boost of faith because she cared about me. Even the ministers told me to forget about her being a friend because she was Mormon… But in the end who was there for me? She was… I will never forget that. God spoke to me through her. He taught me that humans are loving beings. We love because God designed us too! Those who do not know love, do not know God, because God is love.

What more can I say? I hope that wasn’t too much. I hope too that you will understand what I did that day she emailed me… God talks to us through everyone regardless of beliefs. I learned to hear God rather than human words. He talks through human words. As he did through Jesus Christ. I hope all that read this will understand the message.

I think it says in the Book of Mormon; if there are faults they are of men, not God.

We should all stop hearing the human voice and listen closer and you will hear Gods message speaking to you.

Gods blessings to you all.
