I finally got to play a guitar. It was so relaxing and made my whole mission
better. It was great! Also our p days are great! We get to play basketball
every week so I guess that life here isn't too much different than what it was
before. One thing that was way awesome that happened this week was that we had a
huge storm! The road looked just like a river! It was the coolest thing and the
water was at least a foot deep! The Lightning here is also amazing! It stays up
in the clouds most of the time and looks like a firework show! I love it
haha.
So yesterday in church we had a great meeting. A member in
elders quorums talked about how we should hunger for the gospel. You don't
realize how good it really tastes until everything you do is about the gospel.
Talking about Lehi's vision of the tree of life and how we can make it to the
end. Elder Kevin W. Pearson said, "Unless we are “continually holding fast”
to the word of God and living it, we will become spiritually blinded rather
than spiritually minded. Search the Book of Mormon and the words of the
living prophets every day, every day, every day! It’s the key to spiritual
survival and avoiding deception. Without it, we are spiritually
lost." I feel like I have been taking my knowledge of the gospel for
granted all of my life. Until I fully learned to love living the gospel all of
the time, I did not realize the feast I was missing out on. "Don't miss
out on your spiritual feast."
Well this mission is great! Love you all.
