This week has been great and it is hard to remember it all because all I can think about is general conference. Which by the way these are a few of my favorite moments and I am sure you are familiar with them as well:
- President Uchtdorf in the Priesthood session: Even if you were to find the perfect woman, do you really think she would be interested in you? Seek and you shall find. Seek for flaws and you will surely find them, we all have them, no one is perfect. Pride is a characteristic of sin. Charity and love MUST exist in all relationships.
- Elder Oaks: Opposition in all things brings about the plan of happiness, therefore Satan must be there to tempt us or there wouldn't be decisions to make.
- Elder Holland: God blesses the faithful and righteous but, also the willing and seeking saints. We can take solace in the fact that if God were to reward only the perfect he wouldn't have much of a distribution. Only Satan wants us to think that we can not improve. Keep trying. Keep trusting. Keep believing. Keep growing. Heaven will be cheering you on today,tomorrow, and forever.
The highlight definitely would have been Thursday. On Thursday we taught 5 people, and for the first time reached not only our daily goals but, the weekly goals. Which is crazy and amazing for this area. Elder Robinson says that this area has be pretty slow and no too successful. Right now we have 4 people on date for baptism! And it's all because we fasted for the area and we have been trying are hardest. Even then it doesn't feel like we do any work. It feels like we have the opportunity to walk around with a loving heart and experience miracles in our lives and the lives of others. Seriously this work would go nowhere without Godly aid and guidance. I love you all, you are my family. Family is life and happiness. Also, thank you for all the letters and packages. :)
