robot

i felt like a robot this week. i started to really struggle in the VC, feeling like we all say the same things over and over again, as if we're reading a script. it was killlling me! so i first talked to elder burnham about it (they're leaving this transfer, back to Logan, and we're all pretty much devastated about it). he gave me a few tips and then i sat on the bench and started searching the book of mormon for answers. i looked up "teach" in the index and started reading all the scriptures. i discovered that i already knew all the answers, i just need to apply them!

i must first be teachable.

rely on the example of my amazing parents (1 nephi 1:1)

rely on the example of Christ (1 nephi 20:17)

drop the bad attitude about being full VC (2 nephi 25:28)

be obedient (mosiah 3:14)

PRAY (2 nephi 32:8)

be patient with myself (2 nephi 33:1)

believe in Christ and study his words (2 nephi 33:10)

i still have many scriptures to go through, and of course i need to actually do the things i learned about, but i'm grateful that i was able to find answers in the book of mormon like that. how blessed are we to have such a powerful book to guide us in closer to the savior.
