Querido Familia,
This past Tuesday I
had the opportunity to go to the temple for the 2nd time here in the mission
and it was beautiful and amazing as always. Our mission President always
stresses the importance of going to the temple with a question in mind, because
when we´re in the temple we are more open to receive personal revelation. My
question this week was... How can I fully give myself over to the Lord? Right
now I’m trying so hard to lose myself in this work, but sometimes it´s hard
with the daily distractions that we have every day. As I was sitting and
pondering after the session I got my answer. If I really, truly have a desire
to lose myself in this work I have to love the people, and if I want to truly
love the people I have to think of them and treat them as if they were my own
family. And that shouldn´t be so hard seeing that we literally are brothers and
sisters here on the earth. So, I made a goal that from here on out I´m going to
teach every person as if they were my brother or sister or my aunt or uncle. I
know if we have that kind of mindset it will be nearly impossible to not have
deep love for each person that we teach. But, with everything there is
opposition. In this week we lost two investigators... they told us that they
couldn´t meet with us anymore because of one thing or another or just that they
weren´t interested. It was heart breaking for me and my trainee, but we´re
moving forward with our chins up and with faith that there are other people out
there just waiting to hear about the gospel. Remember that nothing is
impossible with God and that we can overcome any obstacle with his help. I love
you all so much!
Sigan Adelante!
Much Love
