When you wre called to work in this [missionary] capacity, you were not required to pass any tests or furnish ant proof that you were qualified. No one quizzed you to find out how much you knew about the Gospel, or inquired about your previous experience or training. The only requirement was that you be willing to accept the responsibility of the position you were being asked to fill.

Your Father in Heaven accepted you “as you are” when He called you. He was aware of your weaknesses, your problems, and your knowledge of the Gospel. He knew of your capacity to learn and your potential ability. He knew that with His help, you would be able to fill the position if you sincerely try. You may have weaknesses, lack of knowledge, lack of experience, and problems, but you have our Father in Heaven to help you.
