Over load and a new car!

This week was overloaded with crazy things. The family that we had on
date dropped us on Friday. It was a pretty heart wrenching experience.
It's interesting how fast they make a decision about this stuff. We
just finished teaching them all of the lessons too. Hopefully one day
they will join.

The other family we are teaching is doing awesome! 12 days without
smoking, and moving forward with the goal of getting married.
Hopefully soon!

We got a new car this week! It's a 2014 Chevy Cruze! I'm not
complaining about that at all! Our old car was going to die
eventually. We did a lot of service and exchanges this week, not too
much teaching. It all just went by way too fast.

I've really hit the Book of Mormon hard this week! I honestly don't
think the Book of Mormon gets enough credit. There are so many things
that have helped me this week just from reading it. I never knew how
much of an impact it was. The lord knows us, he knows our feelings, he
does all things for our benefit and good, I think we are the ones that
miss the mark.


This weeks letter is kinda dull because not much has happened this
week (other than being pulled around the state). But I do know this.
That God lives, that our savior performed the Atonement for each of us
to not only be cleansed, but to be changed. We have been given a path,
and tools (his doctrine) to endure this life, and if we are ever
submissive the Atonement will change our very Natures. President Vest
wrote to me this week and said "Elder Greenburg, the Lord needs you,
and I need you to bless the lives of these missionaries. You are
everything that I and the Lord need to help those struggling. Please
prepare yourself". It was an extremely humbling moment for me. I came
to the realization that I not only need the Lord. But that he needs me
to be his instrument to bring salvation to the lives of those
struggling. He needs me. I can answer that call.

I testify that our Heavenly Father knows our full potential. He sees
what we can be, he sees us at our highest of highs. He is pulling for
us, and he loves us infinitely.

2nd pday in a row that I've had to work on a farm.


Service. I've been throwing hay, and I got peed on by a stupid cow!
