07/22/2013 

            This Week has been pretty good, It passed way too fast, that could mean two things, We didn’t do much...or we did so much that we never really noticed the time. I hope for the latter! The work is hard here, we are told this every week by our Church leaders, they tell us that we do a great job and to not be discouraged. It helps me a lot when I let the natural man out Inside of me sometimes and let myself get discouraged! I see why the natural man is an enemy to God, he doubts too much, is too negative, rarely smiles, judges too easily, is too easily persuaded and so on and so forth. He's definitely an enemy of mine and I pray often for forgiveness and strength in order to get rid of this side of me! God in his endless love and Mercy always lifts my spirits though personal revelation in the scriptures and the comfort I feel when I pray to him. I Love this plan that he prepared for us, along with our free agency.

            Happiness is always on the other side of sadness. It stinks that there are times when we make the wrong choice and have to go through sadness in order to realize the mistake we made and then choose to make the right choice in order to be happy. There are still a lot of things in this life that I don’t fully understand, like, why did God make mosquitos?! No idea, but He’s perfect, so I wont question his creations. Being the weak beings that we are, there are times when we question the many plans of our Heavenly father. I for one do not see this as something bad, it’s an occasion for us to search diligently for the answer through prayer, fasting and the scriptures. God will help us find the answers with the help of his Holy Spirit and eventually we will find the answer, and if it needs be, repent for doubting or questioning Our Father’s perfect Plan. Of course I speak only for myself, based off of the experiences I’ve had thus far, I’ve learned so much about God’s perfect plan, through the many trials and mistakes I’ve made and lived through.

            I love this gospel and the ability that we all have to find and have a true conversion within ourselves through the many experiences in our life that we choose to live through. I hope that you are all choosing to stay safe spiritually and physically! I love you all so much! 

            As for the pictures, Just a doodle, a puppy that we found sleeping halfway Under a gate because his tushy was cold and Elder Tumarae being interviewed by an investigator named Ernest!
