Missionary Work

It is interesting how I think of missionary work in a very negative light. I will be honest that it is hard to get me excited about missionary work.

It is also interesting how many bad things come into our mind once we even start thinking about doing missionary work. Things like "Our friendship will be ruined, everything will be awkward after I talk, I don't know how to do missionary work, I am a hypocrite, and so on."

Instead of imagining all the negative things why don't we instead focus on thinking about and imagining what might happen to a persons life from learning of the gospel and all the blessings that they might be blessed with if they accept.

I think that Satan wants us to focus on the roadblocks, stop signs, etc.

He wants to give us as many detours as he can because by doing so he is defeating Heavenly Fathers' primary goal which is:

39 For behold, this is my work and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.
