Magnify

The last month has been the longest in my entire life. We spent the whole month dodging questions or out right lying. Mark Twain said the best part to telling the truth was you didn't have to remember anything. He was a very smart man. I wonder how he learned so much. I'm guessing lots of mistakes unless he was fortunate enough to learn from others mistakes. In which case fortune had nothing what so ever to do with it... it was genius. My sweetheart was called as Bishop of our church congregation. In our church the ministers are lay people. No money or fame or glory. Just good people who are very human trying their best to serve our Savior by serving each other.
“Verily I say, men should be anxiously engaged in a good cause, and do many things of their own free will, and bring to pass much righteousness;
“For the power is in them, wherein they are agents unto themselves. And inasmuch as men do good they shall in nowise lose their reward.” (D&C 58:26–28.)
The problem was I had been guessing with my friends who the nest Bishop would be. It was all in fun or so I thought. It was hard to learn the nest one was Scott. Many sleepless nights followed but it was really hard to just not say anything when everyone was talking about it and I had not kept my big mouth shut. So I would play along and say yeah I wonder who it is? Oh no it isn't Scott we travel far to much. My friends were in shock the day because I had not broken my promise to not tell anyone in our ward except my brother and his wife. I think it is better to not speculate- trust me and learn from my huge mistakes:) Scott on the other hand is a noble man who magnifys his callings and keeps me in line mostly. I'm Thankful for repentance:)
