Project Woot Woot!!

For this week's project, I interviewed Julius Fares from my class. I asked him what he learned from class and studying the scriptures. He said the following;

"The biggest thing I have learned from our studies is that God sends us trials so that we learn and grow and to make sure that we remember to go to Him for help. Also, I've learned that when trials come, no matter how hard they may be and how much we do not understand, if we push through will all of our courage, determination, and with humility, the Lord will help and bless us."

This interview has really helped me. I realize these things for myself, and sometimes it is hard to realize that others feel the exact same way!! Also, hearing from Julius how the scriptures have helped him and helped his testimony grow, has helped my testimony grow!! He helped me realize that I need to have God in my life...not only when I am going through a trial...but everyday. He is there to help us everyday and He will bless us the more we come to Him and the more we live His gospel and commandments as best we can. I have noticed that Julius is taking the things he is learning from class into his life...he always has such amazing insight into the lessons and it is so amazing for me to hear how he takes the scriptures into his life.

I must emphasize again how important I think it is to share the gospel with those around us...whether they are members of this church or not, we must share our testimonies!! We can impact the lives of those around us if we forget our fears of rejection and embarrassment and tell them the things we know, believe and love!!
