The power of God

God does have his power here on the earth. That power is the Priesthood and it is held by worthy male members of his church. The priesthood can work many miracles and do many things if the person holding it has the faith and is worthy for example here is a talk given by Elder Holland of the Seventy...

Enjoy and see how the priesthood was used and the faith that was required. I know it works and the priesthood is the power and authority to act in Gods name.

Diligence

In the manual we have as missionaries one of the chapters is titled Christlike Attributes. One of the Christlike Attributes is Diligence. It helps us improve ourselves to be more diligent. One of the lines in there says continue until all you have done, even when you are tired. This can help a lot. As a missionary you go go go all the time in the Lord's errand. Sometimes you get in and you are so tired you don't want to do anything. However you come in and do what else is needed. Being diligent has helped me because it helps me with the work I do as a missionary and when I get to the point of when you are tired I keep going because I know when I do the Lord is proud and happy of me. So next time when you have had a long day remember that as you keep going the Lord will be proud of you and happy for the effort you put in to do the best you can.
