This week went by rather quickly. Me and Simon did lots of splits in other areas in the zone to help out. Unfortunately lots of people fell through on us and we weren´t able to have the results that we wanted. However, it looks like this week will be quite promissable. We have one baptism already lined up for this saturday. We have another kid that we are preparing to be baptized as well this saturday as well. My area is proving to be quite difficult but we are finding sucess baptizing the kids of less actives. It is a great experience because the parents and other siblings get excited again about the church and end up wanting to come back and end up staying firm. It is a win win. Baptisms for the missionaries, and reactivations for the ward.
I am really enjoying my new companion Elder Simon. Without a doubt this transfer was done through the means of revelation. We seem to read each other´s minds. We are always cracking jokes, and we teach with the spirit. Normally when it is like this in the mission it doesn´t last more than a transfer, but I am hoping that he will be my last companion. It is possible after all. I only have this transfer, the next, and a half of the other one. Who knows. If God wills it, it will be done. But if not I will understand completely.
Well, I hope you guys enjoy these last few weeks of summer break. I love and miss you guys!
P.S. I got your package in the mail. THANKS!!!!
Belief is the reason we go on a mission. It is the motive for preaching about Christ and sharing/Proclaiming his love. Faith is understanding we are children of God and our Heavenly Father. May this defined and explained and Meaning of faith bless you in your life. Faith is defined again and because faith has an inherent joy it gives us a solid foundation that we finally have the peace we have been searching For.
ReplyDelete"Many believer's feed themselves on what God hasn't done. When I dwell on what hasn't happened, I create the atmosphere for the spirit of offense to arise and to thrive. When I dwell on what hasn't happened, I legitimize unbelief. I live with a sense of justification, for not believing God.
Faith in the purest sense is the ceasing of resistance. even when there's no physical evidence, when the other evidence is present. Not feeding ourselves on what God hasn't done Faith in it's purest form is the absence of resistance
Heaven is a place where everyone is celebrated, some are more honored but everyone is celebrated. All men and all women shall be judged on the light which they have received. Heaven is a permissible culture. God's nature is eternally permissible. These statements protect us from credit.
Faith in the purest sense is the ceasing of resistance, even when there's no physical evidence, when the other evidence is present. Not feeding ourselves on what God hasn't done. Faith in it's purest form is the absence of resistance. Faith doesn't deny a problems existence, it denies it's influence. He or she was someone whom aridity and desolation never disturbed for he or she had a deeply rooted, and a vigorous faith.
Now we can act as we have always dreamed. Now we can act as we have always been. Now we can step into the light and gather the sunlight instead of blocking out our possibilities. Instead of blocking out our joy. Variety will bloom in/under the sun. We can show off our best, we can enjoy other people's gifts. We can blossom where we stand upon the joy that faith provides us. Upon the joy that faith inherently has, which blossoms the entire field of flowers"
