Several Past Opportunities of Good Works in my Life

Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening,

this post should take approximately three minutes to read from start to finish.

This post is roughly short and sweet. Good Works .. How often do you get opportunities to do "Good Works" for a immediate family member? How often do you get opportunities to do "Good Works" for a extended relative? How often do you get opportunities to do "Good Works" for a friend? How often do you get opportunities to do "Good Works" for someone else?

Whenever I thought about "Good Works" in the past, I thought about the following two scripture verses from The Book of Mormon. First scripture verse is from Mosiah 2:17 and it reads; “When ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God.” The other scripture verse is from Alma 37:34 and it reads; “Teach [the people] to never be weary of good works, but to be meek and lowly in heart; for such shall

find rest to their souls.”

While I was living in Australia; I remembered when I had some uplifting and spiritual great experiences with the Full-Time Missionaries. While I was with the Full-Time Missionaries, we were teaching investigators' lessons, we were teaching more lessons to most recent converts, we were doing service projects for the investigators, we went to zone meeting together (at the time and I still don't know if a church member who isn't set apart as a Full-Time Missionary is allowed to go along to zone meetings), we attended Temple sessions together, we spent several preparation days together - especially emailing on library public computers and playing sports, and so forth. 

"We believe in DOING GOOD."

I know for myself that it kinda sucks for me not being able to have the opportunity to serve and set apart as a Full-Time Missionary and serve and set apart as a Part-Time Missionary (Young Church Service Missionary) prior to meeting my husband but that is okay. Heavenly Father obviously had a different plan laid out for me instead. 

While I was living in Australia; I had the opportunity to be set apart as a Temple Ordinance Worker in Brisbane Latter-Day Saint Temple. I missed it so much, I wasn't looking forward to the day when I got honorable released. I remembered duration of my service; I had a several patrons who called me by my first name "Megan" and most of the time, I was called by "Sister Green."

While I was living in Australia; I remembered when I was offering car rides for YSAs to come along with me to YSA events. I also remembered when I was offering car rides for several of my YSA friends to come along with me to Brisbane Latter-Day Temple. I definitely do miss those days mostly because I lived less than forty-five minutes from Brisbane Latter-Day Temple, and I always enjoyed taking friends to go to Brisbane Latter-Day Saint Temple with me and where I live now, I live over two hours drive from Dallas Latter-Day Saint (the nearest one from me) and I rely on someone else to take me to Dallas Latter-Day Temple.

While I was living in Australia; I had the opportunity to do some service projects whilst I was in Young Women's Organization of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints religion. I enjoyed a few of those service projects. I remembered cleaning up from the 2011 and 2013 Floods in Laidley area and Forest Lake area. I didn't like getting mud on my joggers that I had at the time. 

Stay Tuned until next time.
