"Blessed art thou, Nephi, for those things which thou hast done; for I have beheld how thou hast with unwearyingness declared the word which I have given unto thee, unto this people. And thou hast not feared them, and hast not sought thine own life, but hast sought my will, and to keep my commandments."
This scripture is from Helaman 10:4. And I absolutely love it. I love it so much because when I read this scripture I think of the kind of missionary I want to be. And how I want to be the best I can possibly be.
While I am on my mission I hope to preach the gospel with much vigor and excitement. I love going to my mission prep class because I always get so excited to some day preach the gospel of happiness to the people that need it. I also hope that I will teach and not get weary. I hope to convey the message of joy that this gospel is and even on the 18th month of my mission never grow tired of it. I also hope to never grow tired of teaching the same lesson. Because I know each time I teach I will learn something just as the investigators will.
I hope that even after my mission I will still want to share the gospel with others. I wish that from now on and forever I will not fear the people and what they may think but fear God instead. Instead of fearing people, I hope I can learn to love them and want to make them happy just as I am as I live this gospel.
I hope to forever serve the Lord and have the courage to accept His will, to always listen and obey.
