How are you all? Hope this email finds you healthy and
happy! I am still here in Texas! I don’t think I’m ever gonna leave!;) The work
is progressing, we have two baptisms planned for the next two weeks, I am very
excited for that. Other than that there isn't a whole lot to report on! This
next week is going to be super busy! We have interviews with our new mission
president, and meetings and baptisms! So it should be a solid week for the most
part! I want to share something that I've been studying a lot in the book of Mormon,
specifically in Alma, where he refers to a "book of life" and he
talks about how everything we have ever done, said, thought, thought of doing,
or desired will be in said book. And then a talk by Elder Arnold said that
there will come a day when this book will be read to us at the judgment seat. Kind
of a scary thought huh? But the wonderful truth that i have taken out of it is
that through the atonement of Christ, anything that we want, can and will be
taken out of the book through using the atonement of our savior. It doesn't
matter if we want a word deleted, a paragraph, or 3/4 of the book, the
atonement will take care of it and we will have a perfect book! I love the
sacrifice Christ has made for us, and i can testify of its power.
The Spanish is coming slowly but surely. I’m getting a lot
of help from the people here. It is crazy how lost you get in the needs of the
people, I find myself "wrestling with god in mighty prayer" asking
what I need to do to be better for them. I’m just trying to be the best
missionary I can be! Thank you all for your love and support, my thoughts and
prayers are with you always!!
