By
the request of my sister Samantha, I will tell yall more about what
happened this last week. We have been striving to have a member present
with us at every lesson. This last week we had 2 lessons with a member
present. One of the cool opportunities we had was to set up another
baptism date for another investigator. It is set up for the 11th of
October. Its so amazing to see the desire they have to make this step in
their life. We also got to go see a recent convert/recent move in. We
have been focusing a lot on less actives and recent converts, using them
as finding opportunities. This one couple we visited, she has been a
member for 3 years, and he has been one for a little less than a year.
They told us their stories and how they have been through so much. They
told us that their faith had been tried. But, they still have that faith
and they recognize that the Lord has a plan for all of us. While they
were telling us this i thought of a quote from President Monson. "If the
way be full of trial, Weary not!........... Jesus never will forsake
us, Weary not!"
I almost started crying when i thought of
this. How great is that love that our Father in Heaven has for us. He
knows us, he knows our struggles, he knows our strengths and weakness. I
know that he puts us through trials so our faith can grow. I know that
if we endure them with patience, we show our love for him in return. I
know He will never forsake us. That night with those members will
forever be with me. What a great example of enduring to the end, what a
great example of being " steadfast and immovable". I know that our
Redeemer lives and that he died for all of us that we may live again
also. I pray for all of you that you too can press forward with faith
and have patience in your trials. I know that Heavenly Father will bless
you. I love you all and pray you are all doing well. Have a great week
and "God be with you till we meet again"
