This week has been good. Sunday was especially awesome. One of the recent converts in the ward got to bless his new baby. He did really well and it touched a lot of people. Tayla bore a very powerful testimony and she and Dylan brought a friend to church. Things are going really well and I think I finally have this missionary thing down... and it only took twenty-three months to get it.
It is such a strange feeling... Everyone will ask, "How long have you been out?" or "When do you go home?" and it really doesn't feel like it's close. Obviously it is, but I don't feel any different than the first day of my mission. I have changed so much, but the feeling of what I need to do is the same. I don't know if that makes sense, but i just can't imagine not being a missionary. I think about it a lot, but it doesn't seem real to me.
I have been studying a lot this week about humility and meekness. I think that is really the key to success in the gospel. We need to always acknowledge our weakness and fault before the Lord and allow Him to help us. We also need to know that all of us on earth are equals and are equally important in the plan of salvation. If we can understand those relationships, ours with God and with others, then we will have the understanding and hopefully the motivation to do what is right. It makes sense in my head and I hope you can understand it too.
I love the gospel so much and I love my Savior Jesus Christ. I hope that on the day I meet Him again I will be worthy to be called one of His disciples.
I love you all. Never be discouraged. Being sad isn't ever worth it.
