Buuusy Tuesday

Work was buuusy today. 2 of my students haven't turned in ANYTHING!!! I am VERY annoyed!!!

I love this gospel. I know no one's perfect, I'm certainly not so why do I always get frustrated with people who are just trying to do their best like me and constantly fall short? That is the plan. I guess when people are in the church I want to hold them to a higher standard but at the same time I want people to be lenient with my many imperfections.

Elder Holland's talk comes to mind when he said how Heavenly father must get really frustrated having to work with imperfect people.

3 Nephi 22

aSing unto the Lord; for he hath done excellent things; this is known in all the earth.
This beautiful chapter repeats Isaiah.

Lord, I Believe - Jeffery R. Holland
So be kind regarding human frailty—your own as well as that of those who serve with you in a Church led by volunteer, mortal men and women. Except in the case of His only perfect Begotten Son, imperfect people are all God has ever had to work with. That must be terribly frustrating to Him, but He deals with it. So should we. And when you see imperfection, remember that the limitation is not in the divinity of the work

Just what I needed!!!
