Become/Serve

The talk you read said this, 

"Have you ever had that searching feeling, wondering if Heavenly Father knows who you are and if He needs you? My dear youth, and to all, I testify the answer is yes! The Lord has a plan for you. He has prepared you for this day, right now, to be a strength and force for good in His mighty work. We need you! It simply will not be as grand without you!

What a glorious time to be engaged in the cause of Christ!

Yes, you are here for something grand. I join with President Nelson, who said: 'The Lord needs you to change the world. As you accept and follow His will for you, you will find yourself accomplishing the impossible!'”

Do you think the men and women involved in the Age of Enlightenment, Age of Scientific Discovery, Age of Exploration, Reformation and Industrial Revolution ever thought that what they were doing was for the benefit of all mankind throughout the ages, or do you think they were just doing the best they

could every day to follow their conscience and the things God asked them to do?

Do you ever feel that the things you are doing each day to follow your conscience and do the things God is asking you to do will benefit all mankind throughout the ages?  These men and women of the past were preparing the world for the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ.  What are we preparing the world for now?  How important is that in the big scheme of things?  Do you feel like you are a "major player" in these end times?  

What part does God want you to play in this amazing Age of the Dispensation of the Fullness of Times?  Pray and ask Him and then write down your answer in your journal and set a goal to begin right away.
