Today is Chris's Farewell and he did awesome, naturally! I just wanted to share my favorite part of his talk. Enjoy!
"When most people think about what ‘being patient’ is, they probably think about it in terms of patience towards other people , but what about being patient with ourselves? Joseph B. Wirthlin, in the May 1987 Ensign said “We should learn to be patient with ourselves. Recognizing our strengths and our weaknesses, we should strive to use good judgment in all of our choices and decisions, make good use of every opportunity, and do our best in every task we undertake. We should not be unduly discouraged nor in despair at any time when we are doing the best we can. Rather, we should be satisfied with our progress even though it may come slowly at times.” Most of our weaknesses aren’t fixed overnight; we really need to be patient with ourselves and we need to ask the Lord for help. But in order to ask Him for help we need to be humble."
Chris leaves in 3 days :D :D
