Self-Reliance

.
Self-Reliance
by Gil Camporazo

When I was born
Weak, infirm was I
Dependent from parents
Until I grow up.

When I grew up
Educated, having a job
And a family to support
Including my parents who are old.

As I live in years
Depending from the Lord I inclined
Till spiritually assured of my salvation
Clung to faithful obedience to
God's commandments.

Thus, me and my family
Are spiritually self-reliant
After we're sealed for time
And eternity to the Lord's temple.

This poem is written while I am attending a coordinating council meeting of the two stakes and a district. It's the Philippines Atea representative of our Church who conducted the said gathering of various bisgops, presidents, counselors of those mentioned Church units. Self-reliance is if the three major factors for the expansion of the Church units as per instructions from the higher authority of the Church.
