I am so happy. I don't understand why i am.. Well actually i do, haha and i'll tell you why. The Gospel of Jesus Christ will change your life. Studying the scriptures, and praying and gaining that relationship with our Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ really and truly will change your life!
We have been teaching a lot!! There are days when we can't even stop in for lunch because we are traveling around and teaching! I love it so much because it strengthens my testimony each and every time. For some stupid reason, we have been teaching so much about the dang God Head. People just don't get it. We always bring it back to the Book of Mormon, but they won't read it. It is the most frustrating thing ever! Jennifer, (Believes in the trinity hard core) said that she hasn't been told by God to read it. Rob Losher reads Doctrine & Covenants... Gosh dangit... and wants to know about Joseph Smith, and we tell him it starts with The Book of Mormon! But that is always what it comes back to! The Book of Mormon. It has power! It's the other witness that Jesus is the Christ, that he lives and still loves us! He loves us enough to allow us to have Prophets, and know that we can receive revelation in these latter days. But, if nobody reads it, they will never know. Moroni 10 tells us that if we read it with real intent having faith in christ, the truth will be manifest to us by the power of the Holy Ghost, and by the power of the Holy Ghost we will know the truth of all things! I invite everybody to take that challenge. If you know for a fact it's true, do it again. If you don't know for sure if it is or not, take the challenge! If you don't want to read it and never will, do it, because the windows of heaven will open up and pour out blessings that are so amazing that you will not have room to receive it! I invite this to all because i love you and i know it will bless you :)
The Sowards didn't come to church again... They play sports on sundays and it is hard for them to change. Sister Sowards (Sam and Sydney's mom, less active) wants to come so so bad, but we think that she is scared because she knows that she will not be able to turn her back again. But we only know of the blessings she will receive and the love the ward has for them, will help them so much. They are praying and we are praying for them to gain the strength the make it to church and to feel of the wonderful spirit that is always felt there!
This Sunday we taught in the Priests Quorum. We showed them all of our awesome object lessons so when they go on a mission they will be able to use them. Elder Rose and i have found that object lessons are the best! Everybody loves them, it gets them involved, and it shows them and lets them experience instead of us just telling them. I love it!
I feel i have shared my peace, it was a long one today, i'm sorry! Hope i didn't bore you too bad!
I love you all so very much and wish blessing to be upon all of you! :)
Godspeed!!!!
