Changing one World at a Time
A good friend of mine was going to an interview for a job as a armed car driver, when I heard this I warned him that people who do that job get shot and robbed all the time (I'm a worrier) He assured me that wasn't true. Later on in the conversation I mentioned that I ruled the world and everything in it. I was saying as a joke, he reminded me of my comment about armed cars. With out missing a beat I shot back, that I ruled the world, thou I don't control other planets. Well later on as I was thinking about this I realized that it was true, each and every one of us, are in control of our lives. Where we go, what we do. I is our choice to be the way we are. And it is also in our power to change someone's world. Sometimes you will only see someone once it their life time. So you need to always be prepared to '' change someones world'' you have that power, no matter who you are, or what you do. I know that as we go along in our lives, we become consumed with our own problems, and that we are worried about what we have yet to do, But if we but take a moment, and help someone else, or smile at someone, We could help them remember to be happy. Which in turn could change someone else's life. We must always be prepared to stand for our faith, so that in that moment, that one chance we have with someone, we are ready to change that life. All it takes is one smile, one good morning, one hug, to move a mountain in someones life.
I have made it a priority to always try to be happy, after a while I thought that it was pointless, as no one seemed to notice, or at least no one cared. So one day when I was having a so-so day I choose not to smile, I thought ''what the heck is the point. Well while going about my work, one of the people I thought never notice me, called out and asked what was wrong. As I said nothing, they were surprised, and exclaimed how they were glad nothing was wrong, it just seemed strange to them, that I wasn't smiling. At that point, I understood why I needed to be '' Christ like'' at all times, in all places, and in all things. You never know who is watching you. You may be the only member of our church that person will ever meet, so make sure you represent the Lords Church that way he would. Though we are not perfect, we should always be striving to become more like our bother Jesus, for one day when I am standing before the judgment seat of God, I want him to look back at my life and smile, knowing full well that I did everything in my power to do what was right.
I hope that from my thoughts you will be able to change what needs to be changed, live that way Christ would have you live, and love the way Heavenly father loves us all. For I know these things are true, That Thomas S. Monson is our Prophet today, and Joseph Smith restored the true church to the earth. I know that the Book of mormon is scripture translated by the holy spirit as another testament of Jesus Christ. And I say these things in the name of Jesus the Christ. Amen.
