When someone has a car, you get in the car no questions. |
This morning I studied a talk from the Priesthood session of general conference and really loved this quote from President George Albert Smith in the talk, The Price of the Priesthood by Russell M. Nelson:
“We are not here to while away the hours of this life and then pass to a sphere of exaltation; but we are here to qualify ourselves day by day for the positions that our Father expects us to fill hereafter.”
It sort of goes with that one quote they always put on the Jesus posters but no one actually knows where it's from: "I never told you it was going to be easy, only that it was going to be worth it."
A mission is hard work and I am growing so much from it. One thing I have grown to love, although sometimes it's still hard--is to always have something to do. There's always something we can do to serve and bring God's children closer to Him.
This week was really good, right now we are working on finding some new investigators and helping many of our other investigators put forward a little more faith into helping their families learn as well. Without earnest prayer, working with investigators seems like a lot of effort on my part and not the results I was looking for, but overtime as I've learned to pray more sincerely and earnestly I've learned that this is truly His work--a divine process--and God's plan is always best. I love it.
Well today we are traveling somewhere not super sure where but hopefully it ends up being a cave and a waterfall.
Love you all so much. 😂
