One might say that returning to a zone in which they have
previously served would be hard, as for me I give thanks for the blessings in
which I have to go back and make Quilpue even better then before! And I feel
like that the Lord has something for me to do in Quilpue! My companion is
amazing and I feel like we are seriously so blessed! We are working so hard and
trying to find the people who are chosen! And believe me when we put our work in
we will find those who are searching for us! I believe this with all my heart
and I know its hot, then cold and hard but the blessings are so worth it! How
can I deny this great work! We have received miracles and we have an investigator
that will be baptized the 30 of May! That’s like just around the corner!
ahhhhh! There is no time in the world to do everything! But hey that’s life
right? Time goes so fast!
Funny experience of the week is that I of course made pancakes
in the morning and they turned out super horrible! I can’t believe that my
cooking skills have been gradually getting worse but the food seems to be
getting better and better ha-ha or maybe I’m just starving! But my companion
just about died from laughing and said that he will show me how to make pancakes...huh
are we going to have a cook off? Game on! He makes some killer top ramen with
eggs in it so I don’t know if my talents can live up to that but we will
see!
Another laugh your head off moment is just right before this I
went to cut my hair, I still hate cutting my hair but hey it’s apart of the
mission! So I went into the store and she helped me into the chair and took out
a razor and shaved part of my head! Then she asked " so do you like that
length?" after looking at my have shaven head I figured I had to just go
with it and she butchered me! I have never looked so bad before in my life! As
my companion was crying of laughter and I will never go get another cheap
haircut again! But my companion said that maybe the people with have pity on me
and take us in hahahaha I sure hope so! As long as I can move my legs and open
my mouth I will always be teaching the gospel! The only other time I have been
cut so bad was when Elder Osuna and I entered and the ladies were Jehovah
witnesses and Elder Osuna got into a bible bash with them while they where
cutting our hair.....yeah we lost physically but spiritually we won! haha
What I have learned from my life in the field as of now is that
to be a carrier of the truth we need to clean ourselves from the inside as well
as the outside! That means that the we should always be "self
evaluating" and figuring out how and why we need to become better, it was
always hard for me to really kick out bad habits, but then I thought about why
we must fight the natural man, the reason is that we must do it in order to be
clean and worthy to stand before god, how can we not change? We must better
ourselves and live the life of Christ, obviously we probably wont ever walk the
same path physically but spiritually we must always follow that path to be
brought back to happiness! Of course I will change for that!
I
love Christ more than anything in this world, he is my Savior and my light, I
defend him and try to walk with him, I want to be just like him, of course I’m
not perfect and never will be but I can try, and that’s what counts! So I will
do my best! I love you all so much and wish you all the best of luck on your
personal journey to Christ!
