Color to the World

A couple weeks ago I went to see "The Giver". I really liked the book, so I was kinda nervous to go see the movie. On the way home after watching it I was thinking of how life was for Jonas before he got the memories. Dark, gray, colorless. He also seemed to have a lot less worries. After his world changed he seemed to change. He had a lot more responsibilities, worries, thoughts and he seemed to become more independent.

This reminded me of my mission, to bring color to the world. Right now the world seems pretty gray. Everyone is getting rid of the worries and just playing. It definitely feels nice, everyone seems to be happy. Everything is under control and innocent right? When Jonas gets the memories he sees a bigger picture, a unique picture and a picture full of color. He wonders why everyone doesn't have this knowledge. Why can't they see the bigger picture?

Adding color to your world is pretty amazing, but its not all fun and games. It takes some work and adds some stress. After Joseph Smith had the first vision no one believed him and a lot of stress was added. However when color was added light was shown and questions were answered. 

I think that part of my mission is part of Jonas' mission. Helping the world accept the color, even when its hard. Help people to accept the light and to understand the importance of understanding more and seeing things more clearly. Isn't that what missionaries are doing? Spreading light, color, and truth. :) That's what I want to do too.

Its time to show the world our color!
