| Sister Douglas doing inspections, we passed!! |
So it´s transfers already. You know what it´s like, work work work, stress, stuff to do. But I think we´re already ahead on certain things so I feel pretty prepared. I don´t have much to say this week. Angela got baptized on Saturday! It was truly a spiritual baptism. I felt the love our father and Jesus Christ has for us. She gave a great testimony.
President was just teasing me a minute ago, that he´s pretty sure he knows where I´m going when I leave the office. He said I don´t want to get you exited, but where you´re going is an amazing place. And he didn´t say anything else... It´s killing me! The righteous desire of my heart is to go to Nasca, which logically is possible (looking at who would be my comp and the time they have there, and all the factors) so I´m hoping.
I truly wonder why the Lord blesses me so much sometimes. I dont even think I deserve all the things he gives me, and has given me, and yet he still does it. I think he put me in this office, to learn alot about who I am when faced with a problem. I have been fronted by very tricky situations and solutions are demanded from me, and I have learned so much about what makes me tick, and what I can be good at. I testify that Our father in heaven knows exactly which character traits are our strengths and weaknesses. He puts in situations that will refine and polish our talents, and literally hammer us where it hurts, jabbing right at the weaknesses, proving to us that if we look to the arm of the flesh, we will fall miserably, but at the same time showing us the miracles that our God will work through humble men. He proves to us that it may be your absolute achilles heel, and if you are humble, and broken´hearted and humble spirited, he will take you in his hands and literally turn those weaknesses into strengths. (Ether 12:27) It is incredible.
May we all be humble this Christmas season, and remember that he loaded 100 percent of fear, folly, and failure onto his perfect shoulders, and beat them. He can guide us through anything. He has the capacity. He has the Love.
I bear witness that Jesus Christ is the long-awaited Messiah. He came to redeem his children from their weaknesses, if they but believe on Him. He will come again for us to give out reports, and he will judge us, worthy or insufficient. May we all humble ourselves, so that he can make things strong unto us. We will become perfected in him.
