I was in the registrar this afternoon. I was helping in the preparation for the coming ball. Ate Jo was printing something (I don't know what it is called actually. Hahaha!) for the graduation. It was graduating students' profile, I think. At the bottom of it is the line that they were asked to finish. And it goes something like this:
Now I was pondering on what the institute is for me and what blessing it gave me for the past year.
Well, for me Institute is the place where I have gained a better testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the church where I belong. It is is the place where I have been inspired for a countless times: by the teacher, by the lesson, and by the examples of the students there. It is also the place where I felt peace all the time. I don't know why but it became my refuge whenever I feel sad or something. Maybe the fact that I know that people who are there share the same faith me already gave me that feeling of peace.
There are a lot of things that Institute gave me. But the best thing that Institute gave me is the motivation and the hope that I can better person. That through Christ I can change.
It has been a year since I've been in the MPIR (I've been to Institute classes before in the Ward before though.) but it already gave me so much blessings. Blessings that I did not expect that I will receive.
You, that is reading this post, yeah. YOU! I invite you to come to the institute. Wherever may it be, I promise you that many blessings will come in your life. No matter how busy you can be in your school, make institute a priority and see how easier school will be for you. :)
