I
had an expirience with angels the other day though! I had been super tired in
the morning on tuesday and i had some good study and good lessons but
i was just feeling down. after gym on tuedays we have service and so while we
were doing servive (which was cleaning dorms of people who had just left the
CCM) i found a 5 peso coin! its those little things like finding coins or
feathers that let you know angels are around, it was a comfort to me here :)
All
the suden it feals like my mission is about to really start! in a devo by
president holland he said "your mission is real life, in fact its probobly
the realest thing you will ever do!" I was really impressed by that
because theres a lot of important things in life, but theres is little that is
more important then bringing people unto christ! its the most important thing
we can do. and if we do it we will receive endless amounts of blessings! the
scriptures every time i read just take on new life! Its like the words jump out
of the page at you! and every thing you read you feel could help someone grow
and become happier! i did a little thing personally a couple days ago, i tried
to write down as many things as i could find about being a good leader. Most
everything i found was about king mosiah and benjamin! because they led by
service! mosiah is such a powerful seccion of scripture! the whole book of mormon
is just an amazing book! it truly is the greatest treasure i poses!
As
far as your questions, MY violin playing was last night and it just went
amazing! the oppertunity to play with a talented choir and pianist was just
awesome! I felt the spirit so amazingly strong in that devotional after having
used my talents to benefit the lord! The talk was on Zion and how we are
helping to create a new zion here on earth just like in the bible! Also how by
being of one heart and of one mind with your companion allows you to work
together in faith and gain the companionship of god (the holy ghost) who will
truly convert others :) That leads me to my companion, he and i are doing much
better, we still have differences and sometimes anoy eachoether, but we have
begun to work so well together, our lessens are taught in unison and i feel so
much better! exspessially about spanish, i have a long long way to go, but i
can understand so much so well now and it is really comming along!! You last
question, about food... Well one of the best things here is probobly like a
pork chop thing with mashed potatos, its super super good! the worst thing here
though is harder, cuz most every thing is good, and you usually have 2 options
so if something doesnt look good you dont eat it. The one thing that was bad
was they had this awful fish with weird sauce on it. I dont even mind most the
fish they had, but man that one was no good! But i still mostly have been
eating a lot of fruit because its yummy :)
Unfortunatelly
i dont have much more time, but i really miss you guys and i love you all! its
weird and hard being away from you guys but its going so fast! ill be with you
before you know it :) just remember that the lord loves all of us and he is
there looking out for us :) the angels are always around us too, and thats
definitelly true, ¨"Trust is the lord with all thy heart and lean not unto
thine own understanding, he will dirrect thy paths" and i know that if we
trust in the lord these 2 years will be the easyest and best of my life :) heck
im already over 1/24th of the way! thats still significant!
Love
everyone!
