Today I taught a
guy from California that was NOT ready to hear the gospel! All he did
was fight us about how the Book of Mormon contradicts Mormon Doctrince
and crap like that! it was funny;) I was like, "Have you prayed?" he
said "I have read" and I said, "OK! Listen to me, Do you really think
that God would give us ALL of the things that we needed to know and
write them down is just a couple of books?!" That's why we have PRAYER!
we can know the truth of ALL things through prayer!" Elder Vorwaller
then said, "We don't have time to teach people that just want to argue
with us. we are here to strengthen our faith and the faith of others,
the spirit isn't here, we have to go now." and we got up and left!! There
are some people that are so lost and need to hear the truth.
I
found a quote by Boyd K. Packer that i loved about faith! it says, "We
Begin With Faith- Not With a Perfect Knowledge of Things.." KaDi told
me that God Calls people to serve missions to learn and progress, not
those who are fully ready. I love that! We are here to learn, we just
need to learn the TRUTH! People dont know that God has a Body, and that
he isn't some great spirit flying around in space! hes a man! with a body
and that has been tried and tested just like us! I hope that you are
ALL reading the Book of Mormon! EVERYDAY!! Even if its just 1 verse, it
fulfilling Gods Commandment! I love you all, I hope you had and have a
great week!
Mom, thank you for your advice and help! I love you so much! (by the way nice haircut!!)
Dad, I know you work a lot, but I love you so much! i tell my investigators about you and mom all the time!:)
Beau, I hope your reading the Book of Mormon man! I love ya, and good luck at UVU!!
Emmalie, Who knew that you could sing;) I love ya OMM!!
Rhett, Let me know how messi is doing! everyonce in a while I see him play!:) Love ya buddy!!
Ya I'm great! happier now today!! SO my skin itches after I get wet, like
when its drying. For about 15 minutes itches then stops! I have
antihistamine pills, but they don't do much. I love you mommy!!! Tell dad
that I
am thinking about him all the time! I know he has to work a lot,
but I love him! I can't wait to hear from him again! Tell him thanks for
his help!!
