Hey Family!
This week has been a
good week.
Sunday I had to
give the Gospel Principals lesson, and it was about the gathering of Israel. I
was so nervous and we just started to read a little bit, but we started talking
a little bit and then it got better. I also have a testimony that Heavenly Father
prepares us for certain things. I had just passed through a scripture that I
liked in 3rd Nephi that talks about the gathering of Israel when Jesus was in
the Americas.3rd Nephi 17:4 talks about how Jesus Christ will also help in this
Gathering, But for now what we learned in the class is that mission work is the
biggest thing we can do to help the gathering of Israel.
This Sunday we left in
the morning to look for a lot of people to come to church with us, but nobody
wanted to. It was something concerning us, and the whole morning I was just
praying in my heart that we could have at least 1 person in the church. We sat
down and sacrament started. We saw a family that is partial members. They came
but at first we didn’t see our investigator. We kept on hoping that they would
be come. Then about 5 minutes after they came in 3 of our investigators, and
another one came a little later. We were really happy and we felt so grateful
for what we could see that God did for us.
It was the same with
the example of the blocks last week. I think there were blocks that we felt we
couldn’t lift and we felt a little bit sad, but we did what we could and I know
that it’s because we practiced the faith that we had to ask for what we were
worried about in this time.
Talking about the same
theme, I also really liked a scripture in 3rd Nephi when Jesus was ministering
to the people. In 3rd Nephi 14:7-12, it talks about how we just need to ask God
if we are in need of something. It’s really that simple, and the example that
he uses is that if someone has a child and if this child asks for bread would
they give him a rock? If they had a heart, of course not. Haha. And that our
Heavenly Father is the same with us. He wants to bless us with what we need and
He’s not just going to give us a rock. I loved this example, and I know that
all it takes is a little bit of faith.
That’s about all for
this week! Love you all!
Here are some pictures of us today, when we went to San
Bernardo.
