I´ve learned a lot this week. I love that each week I feel like a better missionary, like the Lord is refining me more and more. As I learn more about how to teach and how to follow the Spirit I can be a greater blessing in the lives of those that I am serving.
Earlier this week I was reading an old conference talk (I don´t remember which) about the Spirit. The Spirit is so crucial to all that we do, not only as missionaries, but as Children of God with a goal to live with our Heavenly Father for eternity. I was thinking that if we have a goal to live in the sacred presence of God for the eternities, we better take advantage of the small pieces of divinity that we receive here on the earth. We have to become accustomed to having the Spirit with us at all times. We should always strive to have it with us and become comfortable with it because if we are not used to the Spirit I imagine that we will extremely uncomfortable in the sacred presence of a Deity. The Spirit is such a beautiful gift! I like to think of it as a piece of our true divine home that we get to have with us during our temporary existence on the earth. That´s why we feel so comfortable when we have the Spirit - it´s home :)
I believe I´ve already mentioned our investigator named Artie before. He is so good! He truly is just a good man, with a faith that I´ve never seen before. He has a 100% trust in God, he simply doesn´t doubt. He really has taught me a lot and inspires me to be better. Earlier this week, after a lesson, he looked up to the sky and said, ´´Heavenly Father, thank you for putting these angels in my path, I don´t know how to thank you´´ Moments like that are what make every minute of this mission worthwhile :)
I love this gospel with every ounce of my being, and I know without a doubt that it is true. I know my Savior, and I love Him.
I love and miss you all!
Go Forward with Faith!
