Abinadi was a great example, Prophet and leader. He not only testified of Christ but also asked the people to repent and become a better people which is what our leaders do today. When we heed the counsel of the leaders of the church we will be blessed and come to recognize the Lord in our lives more often.
Sometimes missionaries don't have many "converts" to the Gospel on their mission or any at all but it's more important to realize that God will make things happen. Alma became a great example of following the Prophets counsel.
D&C 18:15, "And if it so be that you should labor all your days in crying repentance unto this people, and bring, save it be one soul unto me, how great shall be your joy with him in the kingdom of my Father."
This is such an amazing missionary scriptures. We need to remember this promise and work towards these things instead of getting discouraged when we might not succeed or see what kind of effect we have on others around us. It's hard but I know that by the work we do nothing goes unseen by the Lord.
Blessing- I have a strong enough testimony that even when life gets hard I know who to turn to and how to make the trial a little easier to get through.
