I remember that one time I was feeling very useless, that I couldn't do anything right, especially in doing the things of God. I felt very, very depressed for a short time and I felt many thoughts like what I was doing was not enough and that all my efforts were for nothing and in vain. I remember that I was just leaning, praying, praying a lot and asking God to help me remove these feelings and to stop thinking like that. I felt a feeling of overabundance, of peace. I felt that everything was going to be fine. And I know that this was God. It was evidence that He knows me personally and that He knows that I am His daughter and He knows what I am going through and He wants to help me. And I know that God will always strengthen us if we give Him the opportunity.

I remember one time that my partner and I met someone who was going through a difficult time and we didn't know how to help her, but she always told us what she was thinking, what was difficult for her, and we could only give her hope. So one time we decided that we were going to help her and try to help her. So out of nowhere we went to a park and started praying. And I remember during that prayer I felt so much peace and so much love from God that he had for our friend. And when we finished the prayer I knew that it was going to end well, that everything was going to turn out well. And I felt so much gratitude that I had had that experience and that I could help my friend like that.

My name is Nimrod, and I would like to talk about spiritual experiences. It's something that I personally like, and that's what motivates me to continue getting to know more about God, more about His love. And the only way to do that is by asking Him. So I invite you to kneel down and listen to your heart and say to Him, Father, or God, or whatever you want to say to Him, and say, I want to have a spiritual experience. Now, the other part is that you have to be attentive to be able to understand that this spiritual experience is there. And every day you can find the hand of God in your life. It's something that I love. At the end of my day, it gives me the opportunity to review and see how God helped me.

Well, a spiritual experience that has made me have a testimony of the prophets and the apostles is the General Conference. While I was on the mission, we were invited to go with questions to the General Conference. And well, I made my list of questions, I prayed, I fasted, and I prepared myself to receive revelation. And something very amazing is that each of the questions I had had an answer. And for me it was like, wow, the Heavenly Father really knows me. Perhaps the speakers of the conference did not know my questions exactly, but the Heavenly Father did. And I know that He inspired them to give me my answers and also to the others who have questions for the conference.

Well, for me, one of the most beautiful spiritual experiences I have had in my life has been during the conference for young people today. I think it is a very beautiful opportunity for young people to be more united and to be able to learn together from the Gospel, to be able to meet new people, make friends, and even share the testimony with other young people. It is a beautiful experience that helps us grow spiritually as friends.

Once, I felt very sad, and I asked the Father Jesus Christ to give me a big hug, a hug. And after a few minutes, I felt a great relief, that I stopped crying and I felt good.

I think the most recent spiritual experience I had was in the sacramental meeting, because every time I participated in the Holy Supper, I felt the love of the Savior Jesus Christ. And I can feel the Spirit of God testifying to me that all the ordinances in which we participate are valid, because they are from God. And I am very grateful, because every day we can have small spiritual experiences.

I want to talk about a spiritual experience that I had. At the beginning of my mission, I wanted to read the Mormon book completely and I wanted to pray concerning the truth of it. I really wanted to know if the Mormon book was true. I always believed it and I liked to read in the book, but I wanted to get a powerful experience. So, what I did was read the whole book, from page to page, and as soon as I finished it, I did what Moroni invites us to do at the end of the book. I sat on my knees and I began to pray. As I prayed, I felt my heart change. It was incredible. At that moment, I knew that the Mormon book was true.

Hello, good morning to everyone. I'm going to tell you the story of Joseph Smith and the story of his conversion. I'm reading from a book called Joseph Smith's Story and it says, I saw a column of light brighter than the sun directly above my head, and this light gradually descended until it rested on me. As the light rested on me, I saw in the air above me two characters whose splendor and glory I can't describe. One of them spoke to me, calling my name, and said, pointing to the other, This is my beloved son. Listen to him. I believe that this event, if it really happened, and that Joseph Smith had a very important experience that revealed the love of God to all of us.
