Wow! I heard Christmas music in Walmart for the first time today, so that just started the day off right!
These last few weeks have flown by! We've had four of five days of Zone Conference and about eight or more exchanges within that time frame as well. Things are incredibly busy, but it's been so good to stay focused and motivated. Building relationships with the missionaries is still just one of the highlights of my service, being able to interact and work alongside one another.
Lately I've been refocusing my studies into the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Those studies have placed me primarily in the New Testament Gospels as well as in 3rd Nephi in the Book of Mormon. It's been stunning to learn more about, and see His characteristics in action. It seems to me that we all too often talk about following Christ's example and replicating His attributes, yet we don't fully comprehend how He Himself exemplifies those characteristics. Because of those thoughts I'd been having, my study has been simply following His actions and looking for ways that I can replicate them.
Simply put, I think it's time we all study and learn a little more about Christ, as He is the center of all we do. Join with me! Study the 2200 references for Cjrist in the Topical Guide, or find something that works for you, but develop some way that you can come to know your Savior better!
John 17:3
"And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent."
