4 The diseased have ye not strengthened, neither have ye healed that which was asick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with bcruelty have ye ruled them.
5 And they were scattered, because there is no shepherd: and they became meat to all the beasts of the field, when they were scattered.
The training given by our leaders were both bold and direct. It got the point across to each of the missionaries in the room. I remember back when I was a new missionary, I had different priorities that I focused all of my attention on, but now, my perspective and list of priorities have changes drastically. The other day we also had a meeting with a member from the ward. He taught us the importance of leadership and stated that the weaknesses of the zone are a result of the weaknesses of its leaders, and the weaknesses of the leader are the weaknesses of the missionaries.
One word that I have tried to understand is the word "success." If you asked me what success was at the start of my mission, it would be completely different from my answer today. I feel everything falls back to the scripture in Ezekiel. "Shepard's and flocks"
Love,
Elder Resolme
