Being a returned missionary is AWESOME! The first few weeks were refiner's fire. But what's the difference, mortality is refiner's fire. I am learning everyday. It's okay to get discouraged. It's okay to feel alone sometimes. It's okay to feel confused about what to do. It's okay if you feel like your plans are less perfect that what you've thought. It's okay to feel scared sometime. Because you know what? You are growing. You are becoming the person Heavenly Father wants you to be. He is allowing you to feel all these because he trusts you. He molded you from the very beginning. You can do it. I can do it.
Postmission craziness still not over. But here's what. The Atonement is available. Amidst all the challenges I am facing right now inside the own walls of my home and outside, there is the Atonement. I wake up happy everyday. And as long as I keep on pressing forward feasting upon the words of Christ and becoming like my Savior Jesus Christ, I know it will be okay.
Blessings pour. I can see more opportunities for more education. I started going to workshops and taking counsels from my family and priesthood leaders. Because it is hard, I seek for more and more guidance and confirmations from my Heavenly Father. I said no to my old job even though I didn't know what alternatives are sure. I just knew it's right. I have a new job now and I am excited to see where it will take me. Friends who are busy takes time to check on me to find out if I need some help. I am making changes and it's great.
Real score, I will not have it any other way.
This post is too long for a month's share. :D
