ITS MY BEAUTIFUL MOTHERS BIRTHDAY TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!! SHES TURNING 29!! LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART! MA!
THIS IS MY COMPS BLOGSPOT hes better at explainig things than me:)
This week was a good one. It was good because I have felt change and change is good. I have learned so much about humility and what it really means to submit to the will of the Father. We felt like we made some really good contacts last week in the street but when we tried to go to their house a. there was nobody or b. It was the wrong house ha. It´s been kinda a bummer because we haven´t found any really positive new investigators and sometimes when you don´t find positive inv. you get down as a missionary. And what happened with Evelyn and Emelina kinda just threw us off and we´re trying to find people for April. We honestly think Gustavo could be baptized in April but we put some good goals as an office to find new inv. and be more consecrated here in the office. Because to be honest it is so hard in the office to be with 4 diff elders with 4 diff personalities and thoughts and habits and trying to work with one another and putting goals together so we can become better. Each one of us have to get out of our comfort zones and agree with one another and this week I also was reminded I am not perfect and neither are the people closest to you and people learn, progress, and do things differently than you do. The trick is to accommodate to others and help one another become better and sometimes that means you change what you want and focus on the needs of others so EVERYONE can grow and progress and be happy. :.) Not just one person.
I have such a deep love for the Atonement of Jesus Christ. I´m really trying to apply it more by the way I react, think, and feel to situations and people. Sure am thankful for the Spirit and how it teaches me in so many different ways about the Atonement.
In 2 nefi 32:1-5 I was reading and I had the question in my mind how I can feel the spirit more and how can I keep progressing? I am trying to be obedient and better and I just really wanted an answer and I was reading and it was such a machete haha. In verse 1 the Lord asks ME why I am asking this if I already know the answer. And in vs 2-5 I was reminded to really put my whole heart into reading the scriptures. And then to stop worrying about yourself and move on. Be better. Elder Duncan and I talked for a long time about some stuff and he sure has been a huge help on my mission, especially in these last couple weeks and he said a quote that his trainers friend told him and it´s “Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what is to be” Good stuff.
And then in Jacob chapter 5 I love that allegory. And what caught me this time is how obedient the servants were to the master in the very last verses. Reminds me of the early saints and how strictly obedient they were to share the Gospel.
In other news we saw 2 kids hop on a normal car while it was driving to get a ride and while we were talking about that we didn´t realize the kids in the back of our truck that were also hitching a ride!
ANDDDD guess what I found out being secretary is really stressful haha.
ALSO JEANCARLO GOT BAPTIZED!! AND FANI FROM THE OTHER ELDERS! YAYY! I WILL SEND PICS NEXT WEEK!
Gustavo also is such a stud! LOVE FAM OSORTO! HE HAS NO PROBLEMS WITH THE WORD OF WISDOM!
