I Guess I'm Still An Introvert
This week was full of meetings, we had zone conference which was amazing as usual, but also kinda sad because it was my last zone conference! But my mission President talked us through the whole plan of salvation and my mind was opened to the entirety of eternal progression. It's amazing how even though I've been a member of the Church since I was a child, I am still learning new things that amaze me.
For example this week I learned about what it means to be meek. It's to be receptive to learning from the Holy Ghost and from other people even if they don't seem to be experienced or educated. This Christlike attribute is so important because as we develop it we are able to rely more on the Holy Ghost, and worry less about prominence, position, or wealth. We want to learn from everything, so we will continue to grow and in turn become more Christlike. I considered Matthew 5:5, "blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth", Moroni 8:26, Moroni 7:23, 2 Peter 1:4, and 1 Samuel 10:6. (Sorry I got lazy and didn't want to type the part I was referring to... but you can look them up). I loved 1 Samuel 10:6 and how we will be "turned into a different man." I know that as we follow Jesus Christ that we will become different, we will become better.
To talk a little more about zone conference... we got new PMGs! Yay! President Ord decided that he would just pay to print them all off... so I have an off brand PMG! But I love it! I'm so grateful for paper things!
A down fall of having zone conference and MLC in the same week is that I re-realized that I am indeed an introvert. I felt kinda bad but after the first hour of MLC I didn't want to be around people... so while everyone was talking while we were eating, I just sat down and started reading...
The rest of the week was pretty normal, talking to crazy people, people telling us not to be out at night, learning new things...
My question of the week is: What does eternal progression mean?
