"Behold his mission is given unto him, and it shall not be given again." // D+C58:16
"Verily this is a mission for a season, which I give unto you." // D+C71:3
Today a man came into the Joseph Smith Farm. He was so excited to see how the homes were doing, because he had been a part of the creation process. Might sound like a boring story, BUT STAY WITH ME PEOPLE IT KIND OF CHANGED MY LIFE.
ok.. sorry about that... anywaayyyysss
After he left, our friend told us that he had actually done only a small fraction of the homes here. He built some buckets and some barrels, tried to help make the home but actually ruined it a little bit. He had only participated a FRACTION.
We are only here for a fraction. 18 MONTHS, to two years, to be exact. Our role is so small, really. But, it will forever be engrained in us. We will always be happy with our work, even if it's small and even if we messed up a time or two. I know the Lord is happy with our work, even if it amounts to one soul being converted; you.
Never let negativity, self doubt, or our enemy ever tell you any different.
Whether you baptized 70 or 1, if you had to go home early, made mistakes, I know that the Lord is happy with you if you gave all because that's all He asks.
