"a loser for a few minutes..."

Have you ever sat in a dark chapel all by yourself listening to the words of an apostle of the Lord? I have. Tonight I was the only young adult from the two wards that meet in our building to attend the young adult broadcast. I must admit I felt like a loser for a few minutes. No one else was at the church, not even the bishop or a priesthood leader. It was just me. I'm glad I went though, and I'm glad I talked myself into staying there even though it meant I would feel like a dork. It was worth it. I was privileged to hear an apostle of the Lord speak.

He told me I was beautiful. He told me I was important and had a role here on earth. He told me next time I feel unhappy or discouraged I should remember where I came from and where I am going. He made me smile and laugh. I like him. I like him a lot.
