Anyway, this week with me
transferring into my new area and all, we were out doing a lot of finding as we
are not teaching anyone as yet but we will. The place gets cold at night here
so I cherish the sunshine every chance I get because I know more cold is
coming. I am trying to get prepared. For
the past few days we have met quite a lot of people and have done alot of
talking which is okay in my book as I love talking about the gospel. There is one member here who served his
mission in Guyana and he has a super huge flag from Guyana so we are best friends
now! It really is all about the gospel
and the joy it brings to our lives.

But,
as we strive to help others have the same joy, the adversary often likes to
jump in when he is not welcomed. Then we
have to kick him out and, hey, give him a good kick, too because we do not want
him back! We met some pretty cool people
and, of course, the not-so-cool. That’s
OK because its all part of missionary work. I am here to work and if it means
hours upon hours of walking the streets then I will gladly do it for there is
no greater joy. As missionaries, we know there will be challenges but we can
all overcome them, for after all, we have the Atonement of Jesus Christ. As we remember and keep pressing forward
we will find joy and happiness for that is the promise given to us as we follow
the example Our Savior set for us. As we give up our desires and our will
to take upon ourselves His will and His desires we truly will see what He
sees and hear what He hears and feel what He feels for all of our brothers
and sisters who are members or not. (See
Ether 12:27)
