here is your favorite missionary during personal study time ;) |
hello this week was wonderful we were able to have the baptism of REy Domingues. His faith has grown so much and i have a good feeling that he is going to be a strong faithful member of the church and he is going to serve with all his heart. WE love them so much he is so cute! he always texts us with all his spiritual experiences. we love them they treat us llike family.
Oh i got to speak on sacrament meeting about my conversion , it was so good, i also talked about my momma and how I am teaching her and how much i LOVE her! we should all love each other as much as i love her because we are all children of God. i shared this scripture alma 36: 24 Yea, and from that time even until now, I have labored without ceasing, that I might bring souls unto repentance; that I might bring them to taste of the exceeding joy of which I did taste; that they might also be born of God, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. ok we taught my mommy on Friday!! it was so special we taught her about faith and repentance, the lesson was great but it got even more spiritual when i shared a personal experience we shared together! this is what i explained to her during the lesson
Joseph Barton, Bishop Pond (now brother Pond;) were over at our house. My mom and i were really angry and frustrated with each other, so my mom decided to invite them over. They came and listened to my mom i admitted to her that i was being very prideful and didn't care of how upset she was at me, i didn't think i needed to change and that i needed to work things out with her. Also she had a hard time forgiving me and we just didn't feel any love in that room. they made us hug but we didn't feel sincere. Brother Barton asked if she would like a priesthood blessing and she did, then i got one as well. Immediately after that we felt the power of God and his Strength come over us, which gave us the ability to forgive one another and to have a mighty change of heart that caused us to want to repent.
The love that came over us was so strong that we knew God loved us and that he has the power to give us the strength to reconcile and to have that peace and joy we cannot get on our own. Humility and Repentance before God and each other is so good, and if you feel like you have the capacity to do it, pray with all the energy of your heart so that you may be filled with his love and strength to overcome. Her and i cried a little bit and i know that she will come around some day. We invited her to check out the church because she will never know if she will like it or not if she doesn't try it out. She smiled and said ok. except she will be going to the watsonville ward, because it is in Spanish. Well love you all and pray that you will all be led to those people that are ready to hear the gospel.
