I struggled the past few days with going on a mission. Not because I don't want to,
but because I'm just nervous I guess. But last night I went to a fireside in Vernal that helped
clear things up for me.
Elder Brimhall spoke to us about, you guessed it! Missionary work. He and his wife just got back from a mission of their own and had a lot of things to say that I really needed to hear.
He brought up a question, Why are we all here tonight?
The answer.."We are here because we want to be"
I have a testimony that has given me a desire to serve the Lord. He told us that a testimony is made up of 3 basic things; things we know, things we have faith in, and things we hope for. Our experiences become layers through time that add to the measure of our faith and testimony.
He said another thing that was very profound. Faith is as good as knowledge. Because I'm going to do what's right either way.
I just want to close with some more of his words of wisdom
"Go forth with great innocence and faith"
Thanks for all your help and support, you all mean so much to me and have shaped who I am today.
LOVE YOU!!
