I am no Superhero

Whatever life holds in store for me, I will never forget these words: "With great power comes great responsibility." This is my gift, my curse. Who am I? I'm Spider-man. --One of my favorite movie lines. 



I am no spiderman, I am no superhero. But I believe in that particular saying as I have experienced that first hand. However. I do not think or consider my responsibilities as both a gift and curse as I know that such accountability is a blessing given by my Heavenly Father. 

I know that He entrusted me those works and tasks in order for me to mature and grow. I know that I will benefit from all these in the future by gaining enough knowledge and wisdom from these experiences. 

I was called and sustained as the new ward  primary president and although there are a lot of people who are questioning my ability to lead and teach the young and naive minds of the primary children, I still believe in what my bishop told me:"You are given this kind of responsibility simply because God knows that you are capable of magnifying your calling.. You can do it." 

I do not care as to whether or not people or church members still look at me with raised eyebrows because of my past mistakes in life. I believe in the power of repentance and atonement and I know that Heavenly Father had already forgiven me. 

I will do whatever it takes to keep my covenant with the Lord and to serve with a happy heart in magnifying my church calling. I love being in the primary! :)
