Trust the Lord
Illustration by Katelyn Budge
When the sister missionaries first taught my family about the plan of salvation after my father died, sometimes I worried and didn’t know if I believed it. But my brothers were calm and helped me believe and not overthink everything.
Sometimes I don’t feel very strong in the Church. But if I have something I’m worried about or a problem I’m facing, I always try to think one thing: Trust the Lord. He guides me to where I should be.
That’s why I want to go on a mission—to understand Him more and understand what He wants me to do. When I see the missionaries and the spirit they have with them, I want to be like them. They are good examples of disciples of Jesus Christ. Because of their examples, I’m really excited to go on a mission after I graduate high school. I want to give the happiness and knowledge I have to my friends and others.
