Bryce's Last Missionary Daily Planner


Bryce's Missionary Daily Planner: 13 Oct. 2008

Notes/To Do List
Home talk: make sure they hear my testimony
* You grow from doing what you learned from your calling after you're released.
*As long as you can get up and put on your socks you are expected to go to work.
*Make a list of what the Lord is not pleased with.
*Repentance is a good positive thing
*don't go back to how you were
*No longer a child, can't act like a child
*"Remember Lot's wife" Luke if we are constantly looking back it blocks us from moving forward from seeing the wisdom of what the Lord wants for us."
If there's things you wish you had done differently, let go so you can move forward.
*Justification is making things right.
*Sanctification is becoming whole
*Ask is it I? Mosiah 2:36 And now, I say unto you, my brethren, that after ye have known and have been taught all these things, if ye should transgress and go contrary to that which has been spoken, that ye do withdraw yourselves from the Spirit of the Lord, that it may have no place in you to guide you in wisdom's paths that ye may be blessed, prospered, and preserved--
*If you go home and try to live the life you lived before, your life will be miserable.
Only look for girls that are capable of your highest spiritual level.
* If you can marry above you--do it.
*If they are not willing to rise to your level don't deal with them
*Marry someone who makes you want to do better
*Don't do anything you don't plan to do forever--don't be a phony
*Stand when sisters come in
*It's easier for 2 to make it than one
*You usually marry the people you date
*Don't let others push you back to where you started. Always look to improve.
Learn to swallow your pride

*Think first, understand first then you can be understood.
*Don't ever give advice before it's asked for. When they ask for advice, they will appreciate it--when you give advice that is not asked for it is a lecture.

  1. This is great, thanks for posting. I think Bryce really was progressing more at the point of his death than any other time in his life. It's comforting to know that he can accomplish all his goals on the other side.
