We have a couple of missionaries returning home this month. They shared some final thoughts from their missions:
I love my Savior! I know He lives. I know He lives because I have seen Him work in the lives of my friends and my own life as He helps me to do His work every minute of every day. I know He loves all of us so much because He has allowed me to feel some of that love for the people I have served! I know He cares about the details of our lives! I better understand that it’s all about love: His love for us, shown through the gift of His atoning sacrifice, and our love for Him, shown through our application of His atoning sacrifice.
Here's a list of some lessons I've learned on my mission: Jesus is the Christ. God has a plan for each one of us. Choose to be a peacemaker, treat people kindly, you will never know what they are going through. God exists and loves us. Because of Jesus Christ there is always hope.
I have spent a lot of time learning these for myself. I have seen the "salvation" and "arm" of God on my mission. I can testify of miracles. I have seen lives changed.
Congratulations and welcome home!
