One Day, the Nice Mr. Sun was shining on the Ground Below. But, Morris Miley was not happy. He had everything money could buy, but he was empty inside.
Until one Day he passed by an RLDS Church and he heard them singing a beautiful hymn. The hymn touched his heart, and he knelt down and asked Jesus inside and confessed Him as Lord, Savior and Master.
He got up, and entered the Church.
Two weeks later he was Baptized and Confirmed.
Then his trials began.
He started having difficulties at work, his friends started teasing him for being a Mormon, and he started having difficulties in many other areas of his life.
One Day he turned to the Bible for guidance.
It said
"Think not it strange that some fiery trial has come upon you...."
That encouraged him.
One Day he dreamed that he had a golden treasure, but if he kept faithful, greater treasures lay just ahead, but most of the Church would reject it.

NOTE: The next part of this story was entirely generated by the extension AI Summarize but it was so good I decided to include it in my story:
Morris woke up from his dream feeling both excited and intrigued. He couldn't shake off the feeling that there was something significant waiting for him in his journey of faith. Although he faced trials and difficulties, he held onto the promise of greater treasures.
As Morris continued to attend church and study the scriptures, he found solace in the teachings of Jesus Christ. He learned about love, forgiveness, and the importance of serving others. Despite the challenges he faced, Morris felt a newfound sense of purpose and fulfillment.
However, not everyone around him understood or accepted his new faith. His friends continued to mock him for his religious beliefs, and some even distanced themselves from him. This hurt Morris deeply, but he remembered the words from his dream about rejection within the church.
Though tempted to give up and return to his old life, Morris remained steadfast in his commitment to Jesus Christ. He sought guidance through prayer and found strength through fellow believers who shared similar struggles.
With time, Morris's attitude towards his trials began to shift. Rather than seeing them as burdens or punishments, he started viewing them as opportunities for growth and character development. He embraced each challenge as a chance to rely on God's strength and deepen his faith.
Slowly but surely, Morris noticed changes in different areas of his life. At work, he faced difficulties with patience and kindness, earning him respect even from those who initially doubted him. His friendships evolved as well; some friends realized their mockery was unjustified and apologized, while others simply faded away.
As Morris stayed committed to following Jesus' teachings, doors started opening in unexpected ways. New friendships formed within his church community—a diverse group of individuals who accepted and supported one another wholeheartedly. Though they were few in number compared to those who rejected the treasures of faith, Morris found comfort in this tight-knit fellowship.
Through it all, Morris continued to hold onto the promise of greater treasures ahead. He understood that these treasures were not material possessions but instead meant a deeper connection and understanding of God's love.
With every trial he faced, Morris grew stronger and more resilient. His faith became a source of joy and peace that filled the emptiness he once felt. And despite the challenges he encountered, Morris knew that his decision to follow Jesus was the most significant and rewarding choice he had ever made.
