I'm
still here in Portales, with Elder Clyde, but we got new compaions! I
won't lie, I was pretty ready for that. haha To my suprise, my new
companion has only four months in the misson, my first thought was, "Uh
oh.. Does that mean I have to know all the scriptures?!" In one short
week I have been deeply reminded, that I do not know anything, the Holy
Ghost, is the teacher. All I do is talk.
My
momma sent me a package, which included my Pat. Blessing, which I
somehow forgot to bring with me. I got it when I was 14, I'm bearly
starting to understand it nearly 6 years later. I won't get into detail,
but it talks about being blessed with desire. I have never thought
"Desire" To be a blessing, but I sure do now. As I woke up every morning
with such excitement to hurry through my FREEZING shower and study,
then talk to EVERY last human thing. Including dogs.
I
see miracles every day, and it's hard to pick what exact ones I want to
share with all of you. Nonetheless, here ya go. It was 11:30 am.
I'm walking in the mountains, me, being me, I said, outloud... haha
"Alright holy ghost I'm ready for you to tell me where to go!" five
minutes later we waked past this house, the door was cracked open, I saw
a few key things. FIRST. he's a man, I can teach him right now. SECOND.
that couch is nice, and I'm sick of walking. THIRD. He's just watching
TV, so I turned around, knocked. Alfredo, and Doris Brown were a little
more than excited to let us in. They're married, she prayed like a week
ago and said the words every missionary dreams to hear. "God Help me, I
don't know what to do."
Being a missionary, is
awesome. Living the gospel is better. Having the desire to share this
message of joy. I thank god every single night for the privlage I have
to do it all day, everyday.
Have a good week, teach the gospel is all you do, and if necessary, use words.
Pictures!
