Elder Robbins Comes to Visit

Elder and Sister Robbins came for a mission tour in January. They taught us so many things that helped our missionaries move forward with greater confidence and faith. He taught us how important it is to act and not be acted upon. He taught us that we always have a choice either to be proactive and choose wisely in the first place or when the situation is truly out of our control we can choose how we will handle the circumstances by asking ourselves what would the Savior do. He taught us that the Savior always used his agency in a positive way and he was successful. We learned that loosers make excuses and give their power to someone else. Another wonderful thing that Elder Robbins taught us was what he talked about in conference in regards to the Being side of the gospel, what is happening in our heart, and the Doing side of the Gospel , the actions we must take so our hearts can be changed. Our missionaries had a lot to ponder when he left. Sister Robbins taught us about music in the church and about the rescue.
