Hey Family!
golly this week was a triel..... we did alot, it was justalot of wierd stuff, and deffintaly patint testing! but it is all over and i amliving so it is okay. my comp got sick. saturday we went to a wedding, and wegot to open the door, then lock up! it just took 6 hours.. and a bunch of otherwierd stuff. i think i know why! i feel as if i have been oped up to a wholenew world in a way. overload of information it seems like! ive read 2 nephi 31and re read it many of times this week! Do you know that God only speaks a fewtimes in the scriptures maybe 5-10 times at the most! and one of the times isin 2 nephi 31! it talks about the Lords purpose and Gods purpose, and the HolyGhosts purpose, and there all one purpose! then it talks about what we must do!and it is the same thing! and now you might be thinking i am 18 months into mymission and now i am thinking about this? like i knew it, but it never reallyhit like it has in the last weeks or so! i always thinking of the restorationis the church being restored, Joseph smith, the preisthodd power, temples, andsoo much more! do you whant to really know what the restoration is? it is theGospel, the Doctrine of christ! the only and true doctrine!!!! the restorationis, Faith, Reptantance, Baptism, Reciving the Holy Ghost, enduring to the end!that has been restored! all that other stuff is really neat and fun to talkabout, but not what a missionaries purpose is! i have learned more about those5 topics in the last 3 weeks then my whole mission! it has been amazing, but ican feel satin really trying to make things pop up so we cant go out side, eventhough wiered things have peoped up, i feel like i have been more successfullin the last 3 weeks then my whole misson! my testimony has really grown and mydrive has gone up as well! foristance why would i tell some one about authortycoming back to earth if they dont yet have faith in Christ? another example ishelping people stop smoking, if you teach people to have faith it will lead torepentance, repentance will lead people to stop smoking! it works way better!we were talking to a brother nammed tray! we tracted the whole street and ofcoarse he was the last door! he was a bit slow to talk, told us we wereworshiping false Gods, and a bunch of false things. we talked for about 45 minsand he really like it! we talked about faith and how it brings us peace! as wewere talking he possed... and said i need to repent dont I? it was amazing! hewas sooo real and wanted to know more about God! one last story, we tracted aHUGE neigborhood! and everyone and there dog was stamming doors at us ( lame )and of coarse the Last door we knock was this family who has a strng testimonyabout God! and of Christ! and we talked abuot the blessing about faith! it wasgreat she had met with missionaries and had them over to dinner when they livedin another state! she was excitted to meet more missionaries! we went inside ofher house for a few minutes and it just felt like a mormon house! it was reallycool! well miricals hppan everyday! it is great! love yall and thank you soomuch for the support! i hope yall have a great halloween! dad thanks for theletter!
