It was extremely cold this week! It seems like winter has finally come
out of hiding!
Other than the bitter cold paired with 30mph wind, the week was great!
We worked really hard!
We have had a lot of member meals this week which was good. We were
able to spread the word a little more about the "mission vision" which
is where each member will set a date to have the missionaries each
someone in their home in 2016! We are working really hard to help all
the members be better missionaries themselves, by just being the great
examples they are. I know that they are way more effective
missionaries, because they're walking talking proof that the gospel
can help you in every day life and bring you joy! So we have
challenged a lot of members, and a lot of them are stepping up! One
family already has someone they want us to teach! MIRACLE
Bill and Jill are still going strong! We actually gave Jill a large
print Book of Mormon, and she was so excited! She was so happy that
she would be able to read it a lot easier! It definitely reminded me
not to take the little things for granted! The scriptures are so
wonderful, and I am grateful for their guidance and comfort.
There is a poem I read this morning that really hit me:
"Good timber does not grow with ease,
The stronger wind, the stronger trees
The further sky, the greater length
The more the storm, the more the strength
By sun and cold, by rain and snow
In trees and men, good timbers grow"
President Monson shared this when he was talking about how the Savior
never leaves us alone in trials. However, often the trials we have in
our lives are for our benefit. As we learn to overcome the seemingly
endless sorrows of the world, we learn we must turn tot he Savior to
find the strength we need to endure. Only in His arms can we find
unchangeable safety. I know it, and I have felt it so much more as i
have come to accept this gospel. It isn't easy being out here, but the
strength the Lord gives me each and every day is another testimony of
the truth of this gospel I teach. I love the Lord, and I know He
lives.
Have a great week you wonderful humans!
