This week was pretty busy. We knocked doors all week and found 10 new
people to teach. This is the blessing for cleaning out our books.
Found a lot of really cool people, now I just have to learn to love
them. That Is a legitimate challenge I have. But, faith in the lord
will sure help me do that.
This week I came to know what it truly means to be at spiritual war.
It's interesting how hard the enemy of our souls works to beat us.
Coming to the knowledge of his game plan, because the truth is, he's
all around us, his angels constantly tempt us, they are screaming
impressions and suggestions, and thoughts at us. Acknowledging this is
only one step closer to defeating him. I don't think any soldier goes
to war without having a background of the enemies tactics. When you
know the tactic, you can know how to beat it. As a missionary, my job
is to guide people, and help them beat the enemy, as they come closer
to Christ, they will feel his strength defend them from the fiery
darts of the adversary, and open the door to light. The savior is
anxious to stand as a shield, if we diligently seek his help, and pray
with faith that he will protect us, he will step in, and he will guard
us. Knowing this it gives me comfort.
I'm doing just fine, I'm learning to enjoy my mission. Sometimes I get
into robot mode, and I lose the joy in the journey. This is why I'm
trying to work on loving those I serve. Often times, I look at a task,
and do it because it needs to be done. But I forget that it needs to be
done, because that person is struggling, and that I love them, and
God. It's a hard concept for me to grasp. But I am determined to
practice it. One day i will learn;)
I found this odd baby shower invitation in the relief society room
during district meeting on Wednesday. What has relief society come
to?;) haha weirdos...
Apparently, in Jared's Ward, everyone in the RS is invited to the baby shower (look at my handsome guy!)
Look At Jared being all tough!
