The title of this post might be a little misleading. The Lord always gives a 100% or more back but it is all in the name of my story! Two Saturdays ago I had this great desire to go and help the Payson Singles Ward with their BYU booth. I don't know why I felt so inclined but I really like doing the booth. My only problem is that it takes a lot of time. This same Saturday I was suppose to be taking a math test. But I sacrificed my time and went with Scott and his friend. We asked if we could leave early and the ward said that it was fine to leave. But when we got there, they were short handed. So we stayed the whole time and worked fast and furiously. We spent a total of 5 hours there and because of that I didn't get to take my math test when I wanted to. The Bishop of that ward is amazing! I love him so much! He told me that if I would serve the Lord, the Lord would help me on my math test!
I ended up taking the math test last Monday because of the booth. The only problem was that I wasn't feeling well. I had a really sore throat and my body ached. I missed class to go take the test. I knew I probably wouldn't do that well because I hadn't studied like I had wanted to. But I went on faith in the bishops promise.
Well, yesterday we got our tests back. I did extremely well, better than I think I have done on any test that I have ever taken at BYU! Because I gave 5 hours of my time to serve the Lord, which is 3% of my time for a whole week, I got a 90% on my math test! I pray that the Lord gives me more opportunities to serve!
