Moving on...



so i haven't written here for a very long time. I have been very busy with life. I have decided to write about my transition. From the singles ward to the family ward. When i was released i was a little bit confused. I was wondering if i should just move on right away? Move after the summer time? Move till the end of the year? so i did what i do best. PRAY! and i got my response. I moved my date from after the summer to right NOW! i was a bit scared. I was leaving all of my friends and my ward. What was i going to do with so many old people! ahahah yea, well my answer was right. Yes, i was stuck with families but i felt right at home. I got a calling right away. 2ND week there i was called to be the CTR7 and they are amazing. I have the cutest kids ever. So smart. they have taught me so much already. I get laughs and amazed at how much they already know. I decided to pay a visit to my old ward (singles). Not very good. I had heard that many have left because they do not feel like they fit in. I got it first hand. There are clicks there now. People don't come up to you to say HI! it was surreal. Is this a place of learning and love? or is this a place to mingle and seclude? i was very sadden by the way my fellow members acted towards each other. It was just like High School. The cool (or think they are) kids here, the smart kids here, the im not into this but am here kids. I remember when everyone came up to you to say HI! Hey sit by me. Yes, these are my friends but i talk to everyone. nope, that no longer excists. so sad, for those that have a testimony it matters not. But what about the ones who do not have a testimony? those that are coming back to church? those that are investigating church? i personally do not what to loose anyone nor do i want to be back in High School. Just to know that you will be held responsible for any sheep that are lost. When you could have smiled. when you could have said hi. when you could have invited them to sit by you. I can name so many people that i got to know when i started going to the singles ward that went out of their way to make me feel welcome. Just to make it clear. i am not upset i am sad for those that have no accountability for their personal actions.
Now solution: you are a representative of our Heavenly Father. Act like one. be kind, be nice, be a friend. You are Christian not a rock star. Be friends with everyone since everyone should be as one.
