REVELATION!!! July 1, 2015
Alright... Soooo this has been a pretty dificult week. I hit a point of what in the world do we do now... Because we have a very little part of the members in our area. And we have asked every single one of the for references. multiple times. And the rich people don´t react very well to just contacting. So it was like... we need some revelation. And so we have been thinking what we could do. and BOOM an idea came. We are going to talk to the President of every single privada. Or the gated areas with guards. And see if we can teach english in the park. For service. And after the class, we are going to see who will accept us in their home to recieve the message of the Restoration. And in this way we can work in the privadas... Which is more than half of the area. SOOOO I AM EXCITED!!! haha Hopefully we will see some fruits of our labors! :)
Also, something that I would like to share is something important that I learned this week. So in these last couple of weeks I have had the opportunity to talk to a lot more people, because a lot less accepted us into their houses. And as you know, being rejected a ton is a little bit frustrating. I found myself getting irritated a little more, and a lot easier. And I guess you could say, that I was fed up with the rude people. And I was finding myself not as receptive to the spirit. And I couldn´t tell why. This is before I recognized the reason. Why was I feeling more anxious than calm? And I brought it up with another missionary. And he just asked me. Elder? how is your love for the people. And it hit me. That maybe my loved had been weakened a little due to my frustration. So I was studying the next day when I found the scripture Mosiah 28:3 this was a good planch for me. This is when the sons of Mosiah wanted to go and preach to the Lamanites. And in this scripture they say, we cannot bear the thought of one soul being lost. i don´t know in english I am sorry. And it hit me. Do i have this love for the people? Unconditional? meaning that no matter what they do, I still have this feeling, of not being able to bear that one of them shall perish? And then I remembered what Moroni says: Pray with all the energy of heart. That you may be filled with his love. Something like that. I have again been filled with this love. And this is my committment to everyone. That we can pray with all the energy of heart to be filled with Charity, and that we can love each other unconditionally. Anyways, this was a great lesson for me. I love you guys! have a great week! :)
