Well next week are changes so we shall see what happens!!! I'm not sure, I have heard that there might be big changes here but we still aren't sure. We will find out for sure on Sunday or Monday So I will be sure to let you know :)
This week we have been working to find new people to teach because lately it has been pretty hard to find people that want to listen to us or even want to go to church. Sometimes it's really hard to deal with all the pressure that comes from our leaders and the other missionaries that are around us. But if we rely on the Lord and do the things that He has asked us to do, everything comes out to be that way that He wants it to be. But that's the key. We need to be submissive to His will. A lot of times here, we think that we know what is the best way to teach and we stick to that same plan and it doesn't seem to wok after awhile. Then we start to wonder why we aren't seeing the same results that we saw before. That is when we need to realize that we don't always know what's best. The Lord does. And He is just waiting for us to come looking for the direction that He wants to give to us. If we are not willing to submit to His will, then there is no way that we will see the things that He wants us to see or partake of the blessings that He has waiting for us.
It's a lot like life. We need to know that if we aren't willing to change some of the habits that we have, we won't change... it's that simple. Easy to say but hard to do right?! That's why the Lord has blessed with the manual on how to do it. Whenever we don't know how to do something, where do we go? To the instruction manual or to someone that knows. Well we have the scriptures right in front of us and more than enough leaders in the church that are more than willing to help us. The Lord is always at hand to help us every step of the way. He promises that in D&C 82:10. He says, I, the Lord, am bound when ye do what I say; but when ye do not what I say, ye have no promise. He has told us that if we do OUR part, He is obligated to do HIS part. BUT that is the key!!! We have to do OUR PART!!! Sometimes the people think that they can go about doing whatever they want and that the Lord will just bless them for everything but it doesn't work like that!! If we think like that, we need to stop and reconsider what the Lord has promised us. We need to change to open up the path for all the blessings to come to us.
I love all of you!!! Hope everything is good at home!!!
"It is never too late to strengthen the foundation of faith. There is always time. With faith in the Savior, you can repent and plead for forgiveness. There is someone you can forgive. There is someone you can thank. There is someone you can serve and lift. You can do it wherever you are and however alone and deserted you may feel.
"I cannot promise an end to your adversity in this life. I cannot assure you that your trials will seem to you to be only for a moment. One of the characteristics of trials in life is that they seem to make clocks slow down and then appear almost to stop.
"There are reasons for that. Knowing those reasons may not give much comfort, but it can give you a feeling of patience."
President Henry B. Eyring
