Hey guys!
I don´t have too much time, but It was a
great week! We´ve been teaching a lady named Dora who is fighting with
depression. She´s good one day, and another day is bad, and she´s tried
everything to get rid of her depression. As we´ve taught her, and she´s
put the gospel in practice, she´s started to change! Now she´s always
happy, and she LOVES the ward- They have all reached out to her, and
it´s really cool to see. She´s getting baptized this saturday! We´re
pretty stoked. We have a pretty good pool of investigators, and we´re
trying to help them to progress! (a lot of them have to get married
first!)
But yeah, Sorry I don´t have too much
time. I was thinking this week about leadership, and why it´s so
important. I always thought that leader´s were leader´s because they
wanted to be, or because they were good at it. For many people, that´s
the case! But I was thinking about these last days, and the kingdom that
the Lord is building on the earth. In these last days, and as things
get more and more complicated, I realized that the Lord NEEDS Servants,
He NEEDS leaders. In the Church, in the stakes, in the wards, in the
missions, and even in the Local, state, and national level. He needs
men, and women, who are willing to make WHEREVER they are better, and
more perfect. I´m really coming to understand that None of this is about
me! It´s not about us at all, it´s about our Heavenly Father, His plan,
and how we as His children can participate in it. It makes me want to
get home, and just waste and wear out my life to serve and make things
better wherever I am.
I love you guys! Keep
sharing the gospel, and be BEST FRIENDS with the missionaries so that
you can invite your firends to listen to them! They know what´s up!
