I am hanging in there. :)
This week in truth was a little difficult, we are searching to have investigators firm and strong and find the elect. We are teaching like crazy, but not having a whole ton of result, but the lord will bless us.
It is interesting that no one likes having tough times, but I sure have learned a lot here throughout this dry time, or time with out baptisms. We learn that truly to trust in the arm of flesh is not what we are to do, we are nothing without the Lord. It is such a pleasure to study the scriptures. I am coming more and more to treasure them. I already had a great love, but my love has grown, and will continue to grow. What a fabulous time in our lives! I am happy to be living, loving and breathing. I know that things will get better, and i just need to look for the solutions and look less at the problems. BUt, indeed we must look at the problem a little to understand how we can make up a solution.
One truth that has stuck in my head this week is something that i learned in the MTC. My companion told me I am pretty sure it was Bruce R. M. that said something like this, that the only way we will be able to have reach the celestial kingdom is when this is what occupies our mind, motivates our actions, and is the greatest desire of our hearts. Anything less than this my dear family just isn´t enough. I am doing some real soul searching out here, and I know that what i am learning here is a treasure I will have for all my life. I am thankful for this opportunity. Pray that the Lord willbless you all!
