This my friends has been an excellent goal for me. One that I might duplicate for a few years. I have to take a hard look at myself and realize what I have done each month to be more like the Savior. So each month I need to think about what I want to do and then do it. This month presented itself with a challenge. My son is living in MN now with my husband's family. He left behind a friend he made who want to go to church with us.
Each time we have the opportunity to serve Alyssa, I feel such great joy. Joy in her willingness to learn new things. Joy in having two young men teaching such great messages that show the love the Savior has for us. Joy in seeing my daughter's testimony grow and her courage in having her own missionary moments has grown this month. Joy in the overwhelming presence of the Holy Ghost. Joy in remembering why I made the decisions to become a member of the church. Joy in the blessing we enjoy because of earlier choices.
Reflecting in this month and allowing myself to be a "fisher of men" I feel joy. July has been good to us.
Missionary work is exciting, isn't it? Especially when we are reaching out to friends.

You're doing really good with this commitment! I think it is fun to share the gospel and be in on discussions with the Missionaries..reminds me why I joined! Ha! Feeling that Spirit is so special. I can't believe July is over already...sheesh!
