Jake put his testimony on his Instagram and an LDS site asked if they could post it to theirs. He was pretty excited about that. This is what he said;
"I have grown up in a family who loves the church. They have been such a great example to me and how I want to be when I'm older. I love how my parents have taught me to love everyone and everything. Even though I go through daily challenges with school and things like that, I can always look to my Savior to help me get through it. He is my role model in life and I strive to be like Him. I want to go to heaven to see my Heavenly Father and Jesus and that is what motivates me. This church is the best thing in life and I can't imagine my life without it in it. -Jake Isaac Ralph :)
I love that he is learning and developing his testimony that will give him strength later in life. I need to be better about really teaching the stories in the scriptures but I do love discussing real life application of the Gospel and Christ's teachings with my kids!

I read this on lexis Instagram and was blown away. He is one awesome kid! That takes courage and strength! So proud of him!
That is so wonderful! We need courageous parents and youth who are willing to share our beliefs. It can be pretty intimidating. So proud of him!
