One of the most fundamental principles of being a member of the Church of JESUS CHRIST if latter-day saints is a belief in a modern day prophet, truly as Christ taught “by their fruits ye shall know them” (matthew 7:20) I know that Thomas s monson is a prophet of God by witnessing and tasting of the fruits that he has brought forth. I gained a witness of his divine calling when i sustained him in the solemn assembly, the spirit testified to me that the man i was sustaining was a true prophet, seer and revelator. The only way to know is the spirit.

As a new convert, I had a lot of questions about “fitting in”. Although I felt that the Spirit had led me to join the Church and I loved being united with my husband, I have been an active Christian since I was 11 and am now 77.
As a new member, I loved the folks at my first two wards and now at my Senior Citizens Branch. I have always had dear LDS friends throughout my life. However, even after joining, I felt like I was not a REAL member until I read the life story of President Monson in the Ensign. Something about his life story of service and outreach reaffirmed my ideals of what a true follower of Christ should do.
It is my prayer that I never lose the spirit of love and outreach to others that he so aptly demonstrated throughout his life.
