Who am I really?

It is interesting to think back on our pre-earth life. There were a lot of people there. And just like here, some were fighting to convience others to be on Christ's side.  That means we were fighting for moral choice.  We were in training for what we would be doing down here on earth.  Every Priesthood holder was for-ordained to that office in that life. Every missionary was for-ordained to that call.

So, think about it.  Right now they figure in 2013 there are 7,123,497,504 people on the earth. And when they figured it in January of this year there were 58,000 missionaries.  So up in Heaven, Heavenly Father looked out over his children.  He looked over 122,819 of them and said "I will choose one to teach all of the rest of you about the Gospel on the earth.  One out of 122,819.  And apparently I raised my hand and said "here am I. Send me." And so did each missionary that has served, is serving now, or will serve.

In John 21:15-17 we read where three times, Jesus told Peter to Feed His Sheep. Christ died, was resurected, and came back to teach the apostles.  It was important.  Feed His Sheep.  What does the Lord see in us that we usuallly can't see in ourselves? 

He knows that when we were in the councils in Heaven and were asked who would take the fight down to earth to teach the people there, some raised there hands and said, "Here am I.  Send me."
