So I have made it through another week!!! This has been great!! I guess we
are almost through week 4!!! Crazy!!! Well this week has been the same as the
other weeks. Study, eat, sleep, class is pretty much my life now. But in
every class the Spirit testifies of my purpose as a missionary and teaches me
what I need to know and do to serve the Lord with everything I have.
This week
we have focused on revelation through pray. We went to the TRC like we always do
on Monday but this week something really cool happened. We walked into our first
lesson and began talking with the girl there. All in spanish of course well as
much as we can anyway. We talked about our prayers and the revelation that has
come about through and because of them. The spirit was so strong it felt like it
was vibrating through the room. The room was too small to contain in I'm sure.
It was amazing. I already have a testimony of prayer but this experience has
really opened up my eyes to its great importance. How amazing is it that a God,
all knowing, all powerful, wants me a small person of billions to talk with Him
daily, multiple times a day. Not only does He want me to pray but He wants you
to pray also. He wants to know you, and He wants you to know Him. We can pray
about anything.
In spanish there is a formal and informal way of addressing
someone. We are taught that we address our father in the informal because we are
to be close to Him. This shows that relationship. I want to have that kind of a
relationship with my Father in Heaven. So I have been working on my prayers.
Talk to Him about everything. The good and the Bad. This has enlightened me both
in the language of the Spirit and the Language of Spanish. Prayer can help. God
listens. He answers. We just need to take the first step by kneeling and pouring
out our soul to him. I love my Father in Heaven and am so grateful for His
Son, Jesus Christ. It is only thorugh Him that we can be saved and return to
live with our Father in Heaven. Please Pray.
On a secular note (is anything really secular when you are a missionary) we
still do not have our visas. I do not know if I told you this before but pretty
much when they appear they will give us like two to three days notice that we
are flying out and then we are gone. I am pretty sure I will be here until at
least Monday and that is only if we get our Visas today (pray pray pray). It is
so nice to here from everybody!! Continue to write. :D
Love you all so much!!
Love,

LOVE YOU ALL!!
