Growing up it's strange to think that goals will shape you into who you become. It's also strange to step back and look at the sacrifice that a parent will make to help their child achieve their goals. Growing up with parents who weren't a part of this Church when I made the decision to serve this mission I was scared that they were going to have issues with it but, oh was I wrong. Love and comfort was all I recieved from them no anger no questioning they understood that it was a goal I had set for myself to become a better man and they helped me as much as they could.
I thought of all of this because this video. His parents helped him achieve his goal that put in the time and they helped him remember the goal. The Scriptures show us this so often. 2 Corinthians 12: 14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I aseek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
Parents sacrifice so much to ensure the joy and happiness of their children. Time + Sacrifice + Love = Parents I'm sorry to say that I only learned this not long ago.
