ONE FOR ALL, ALL FOR ONE

"Now I plead with you, dear brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, let every one of you speak according to the same spirit, so that there would be no divisions among you; and be perfectly joined together in the same mind, and in the same judgment. (1 Corinthians 1:10)"

-UNITY-

Sports team, co-workers, service projects, church activities, family... the list goes on and on.
Are we united in the things we are doing?
Serving a mission has taught me a lot about life and most importantly a lot about myself.
I am a very self motivated and independent person, and it was very interesting and I would say kind of a struggle trying to get used to having a constant companion who also has an opinion.
I quickly learned that as companions we must be united in order to move forward.

Just recently my mission president was released and a new one was called. The first meeting we had with him he explained to us the vision and goals he had for the mission.
President Alba's vision is to be a united mission. With love and obedience we will be able to become more united in the great work of the lord.

Its funny how the things in life that will make us happy all come from the gospel of Jesus Christ, coincidence? I think not! Our loving Heavenly Father knows what he is doing and we can truly trust him.

I encourage all who read this blog to find something in your life that you feel like needs more unity, and strive to change it. Please don't feel like you have to change every aspect of your life to become more united in the area you have chosen. Don't be afraid to take baby steps.
