Something that I
recognized this week was that we have one purpose on the mission. Invite others
to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel. Elder Sorias
conversion story was definitely a huge example to me of someone who fulfilled
his missionary purpose and a mom dedicated to the lord. Elder Sorias brother
passed away on the mission. When a ward member broke the news to his mom she
screamed out of agony and fell to her knees and prayed. She must have prayed
more than an hour when she stood up and said "I know and trust in the
lord. If it was his will to take my son let it be. I have four more children
that need to send on a mission as well." I was blown away by the faith and
trust in god that this woman had. The first thing that she does after hearing
about her sons death is testify of the will of god and promise to send her
other children. Neither she herself or any of her other children at that time
were members. After the news of their sons death the family soria quickly
converted to the church and made a long and hard journey to become sealed in
the temple. Even though their son passed away on his mission he fulfilled his
purpose as a missionary for his own family. I know that the Lord has a plan and
he will never waste our efforts on the mission and we will always receive the
rewards of our efforts, we may not see them but the blessings come and they
last forever.
