Something I've been thinking of and trying to do these last couple weeks is to be more bold in my testimony. Bold in my teaching. Bold in everything.
In the first part of my mission, I was nervous to teach and share testimony, but I've tried to pray for courage and follow the counsel of Alma when he said:
"And now, my son, I have told you this that ye may learn wisdom, that ye may learn of me that there is no other way or means whereby man can be saved, only in and through Christ. Behold, he is the life and the light of the world. Behold, he is the word of truth and righteousness. Use boldness, but not overbearance; and also see that ye bridle all your passions, that ye may be filled with love; see that ye refrain from idleness." (Alma 38:9,12)
As I've tried to apply this knowledge I've been able to see the power that comes from bearing testimony with boldness. I know that as we are bold with love, we can enjoy the blessings of being proud of what we know.
