August 2, 2017 -- The Lord Loves Us
The Lord loves us. Sometimes we feel like we don't deserve it or we could do more. But our Heavenly Father only asks us to do what we can and trust in him to lead us all the way. This week I am learning to trust God in all things and take everything one little baby step at a time. If all I can do is talk to one person, than at least I talked to one person!
Our recent convert, David Stanford, bore his testimony for the first time ever this past Sunday. The joy that we felt as he testified of Christ was almost tangible, and I am so incredibly grateful to have been there to see it. He is going to receive the priesthood this Sunday, and we are so excited for him we can barely wait!
We continue to see miracles in the work everyday, and the Lord truly is helping us to move forward and to find joy. Each day that goes by is another opportunity to commit ourselves to our Savior, and to remember that this truly is His work. What a blessing it is to be a representative of the Savior here in Madison Florida. There is no other feeling like it. Sometimes we are discouraged and we feel like we just can't go on, and then we remember our calling and just how great the work that we are doing truly is. I am so blessed to be a missionary. I am so blessed to serve my Heavenly King.
Thank you all for all of your prayers. There is nothing like the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It changes lives. It changes souls. It changes me.
Love you all and miss you dearly. My three month mark is this week, so I will see you all in 15 short months of hard work and service!
