It is the teaching of the word that converts people. I will never forget the feelings I had as I worked at HAFB and the people there who took it as their responsibility to rescue me. I was taught by Seventies, bishops and return missionaries and it was a beautiful thing. My testimony grew and I knew that the Lord had a plan for me. I was not where I could fulfill that plan and made serious corrections to my life - none of which I regret. It has been a beautiful experience and although hard at times, it has been the biggest blessing of my life.
I know Heavenly Father loves all his children and there is someone waiting to rescue all who have strayed. Agency is an important part of this process, and we have to accept the Savior as our personal Savior and Redeemer, then make the corrections necessary to be blessed to pursue the plan the Lord has for us.
So how does this apply to me today? I have made these changes. It is my duty to pass it forward - to seek out those whom I can help as well. It is my daily duty to try to be an influence for good on someone.
