Learning Curve

You know how the learning curve woks right? A class full of students all take a test and the highest score is 94%. That immediately becomes the 100% for the class and everyone is scored accordingly. I have a hard time with it somedays. This year I have been going to school and as I have done so, I have worked hard to get good grades. I have taken several tests and have not gotten lower than a 98 on any of them. Two of them to be exact. I showed frustration when I missed a question that brought my grade down. One of my teachers kept telling me that missing one question will not hurt my grade. Maybe not, and really only missing one question out of 50 is good. I get it. 

So why does it bug me? I don't know. I have worked hard to get perfect grades and that isn't perfect. So anyway, as I sat there one day, I began to wonder if Salvation was judged on a learning curve. What would happen to me if I was in the judgement seat and I second guessed my answer and missed it!? 

What if I were the only one to miss the question, would I automatically lose my chance at salvation because of the learning curve? I would hope not. 

So I have decided that failing is not an option. I need good grades to make it through my life and gain salvation. My GPA needs work. I know it does. I know I can do better in life. I can read my scriptures and pray daily. I can study the scriptures and prepare for that question about Nephi when he broke his bow or when Ammon was able to fight off the enemies who were scattering and stealing king Lamoni's sheep. How Noah was able to be faithful enough for god to reconsider letting him live instead of dying In the flood. How by faith a savior was given and suffered in Gesthemane and died on the cross just so we could live with god again. 

So what am I to do about this learning curve? Well if it is the case,  and that is how we will be judged, I will have to strive to be the 100% in the class. I have todo,h very best, no second guessing and no giving up. It's time to get working to bring my Heavenly GPA up and be able to walk through the gates of heaven with honors. 

Have a good day
