Called to Serve

Monday, March 2, 2015

These months are just flying by! I've been out for 5 months already what the... like almost a quarter of the way done which isn't that long of a time... but it feels like i've been out for like 3 weeks.. if that. Yeah district leader trainer. Not super unusual my trainer did that when I was here, but it's not super common either.  It is a lot of work. it's kind of like I was just getting used to being a missionary and the Lord said, "uhhh don't get to comfortable" and then just like added 100 new things to do. My district is 8 people. Responsibilities would be like calling every companionship every night and checking what they did and talking about the area and giving them things to do the next day. Doing interviews with the sisters and exchanges with the elders. accounting to the zone leaders every night and doing the weekly numbers. and then also conducting District meeting on tuesdays and give a training on that (which is kinda wierd becuase I'm the youngest misisonary in the district besides my comp and I'm like training which is a little strange but its all good) and doing the baptism interview for all the people getting baptized in my district. and that's pretty much it! Its actually really fun and everyone in my district is AWESOME. so it's pretty easy. I still like my comp. he's not really anything like me and still awkward but he's trying hard and I've already seen so much change from him so it's all good! 

Obedience is my favorite topic to teach! Elder Holland says "Obedience is the first law of EVERYTHING." and more of a missionary sense but it would work well with life "Tell me how your obedience is and I'll tell you how your mission is going to be" which could probably be changed to how your life is going to be. Missionaries have to be EXACTLY obedient. Like thats something that is really stressed. and the best part about it is that when we are obedient to a commandment God blesses us and when God blesses us we want to be even more obedient and then he blesses us more and then it's like a never ending cycle of blessings and obedience! WAY AWESOME. also Mosiah 2:41 is a pretty good scripture on obedience!
