A childs love

   It is amazing that how a little child can love so much. The first couple months and years they love so much. They show the love of Christ through their love.   They were with Heavenly Father before they came to earth and you can feel the love of Christ.  I teach primary children.  I feel the love of heavenly from my sunbeams. They are easy to love and you feel their wonderful spirit.  You learn so much through them.   I love working with little kids.   They have an amazing love for everyone and everything.     We need to learn more from children about loving with an open mind.   Kids don't care or look at color, or religion preference or sexual orientation.  They love because Heavenly Father taught them to love everyone.  They have the sweetest testimonies out there.  I love listening to lids give testimonies during fast and testimony meetings.

An introduction to... Elder Logan Hill!

Hi there! I'm Elder Logan Hill from the Utah Salt Lake City West Mission. I'm from Kinston, North Carolina but I'm moving back out to Utah when I'm done. I've been serving for 18 months and I love it! 

I keep my mission blog updated pretty regularly. It's WakeUpAndDoSomethingMore.blogspot.com. It was inspired by Alex Boye's music video "Have I Done Any Good Today?" I've been running it since late September, and I try to post something at least once a week or more. My blog has been featured on the LDS Missionaries, Sugardoodle, and LDS Living Facebook pages.

Some of my favorite posts to write have been:

Their Mothers Knew It

Do What Is Right

The Most Correct Of Any Book On Earth

A Lifetime Commitment

It Came Upon The Midnight Clear

The Brass Serpent

Needs-Causing Me Dysfunction

I hesitated to even put that much up (private, personal people shouldn't have blogs hahaha).  But since then I have been pondering what was making me so unhappy.

NEEDS.

Not actual needs like food, sleep, air and social interaction.

But the
Perfect Job...satisfying and rewarding.  Good paying too
Incredible Friendships....the kind where you never fight, share clothes, finish each others sentences
Poem Worthy Romance...right out of the most recent Chick Flick
Pinterest Inspired Apartment/Home
Glamorous Social Life...free of Awkward Uncomfortable Encounters
Beautiful Children...who are both Well-Behaved AND Adorable



Kinda a hefty list right??
Not only is the list long and full of big stuff.
But the requirements of sheer impossibility added in?
I was setting myself up for complete failure and disaster

I was completely and 100% focused on those needs.
I said they were goals I was working towards.  I had a dream...and in my dream it all was possible.
But I let them become more than that.
I began to base the happiness...no contentment I felt on whether or not I was achieving these goals..aka whether or not my needs were being satisfied.

And so I acted.  But my futile attempts to force my impossible needs into fruition created
unhealthy and dysfunctional situations throughout all areas of my life.

How on earth can I be happy when my happiness is focused on the external?
I was setting myself up for failure.  And then the lack of happiness from not having my needs was only compounded on by the fact that I wasn't happy and couldn't figure out why.

this man is the best man ever, he is the one that has been investigating the church for four years,he is so so so special and is always looking out for others, he picks up our investigators for church every week, takes us to all firesides and temple trips and he is so sweet and respectful, as I've told you before he is our grandpa!

  

this is a donut breakfast for Stake Correlation Meeting :) so this is a pictures of most of our zone. I LOVE them so much they are literally my family

ok my week : we went to Camelback Mountain this morning two elders kept encouraging me because i was dying, but they didnt let me rest ans i had to keep the pace of the first group, it was hard but i made it to the top with the winning team!

this elder looks like Jim Carey 

here am I doing the Titanic. 

ok really my week was wonderful: first i need to share a really cool testimony my recent convert Jenny bore.

she was talking to her neighbor about Joseph Smith and her neighbor responded very colorfully and said "how can you believe in that, where does it say that in the bible?!"

she didn't say anything, but she did pray to ask God if he truly was a Prophet. The next day, we apparently came over ans mentioned something about him and in her words she said "I felt in my heart that he helped God to bring his true church back on the earth"

the next day her neighbor asked her if she still believed that asn with confidence she said " i know it is true because i asked Him and I felt it in my heart"

My companion ans i were so incredibly happy when she told us that, especially because she exercised her faith and asked if something was true, that means because she has done this she will keep relying in God to help her with her challenges, doubts, fears and will always trust that if she lives worthy of the spirit she can always have that peace and joy and guide in her life. What a blessing it is to hear that sweet lovely testimony!

we went to the temple with Catalina, the mother of Blanca!!

at first she hated us, never said a word to us and after the baptism of her whole household ans after we went to the temple in Gilbert, the kids couldn't stop talking about it and showed Gramma pictures of it and said how much they loved it, then she had a desire to go and also was nicer to us, she even came out during our lesson one day and told us of the profanity the girls use and how they shouldn't be speaking that way when they are learning about the gospel and she was really concerned about it. We all helped her understand that we start to change little by little and as they study more and especially the pamphlet of  For the Strength of Youth, they will example of the believers in word, in charity, in purity, in love at all times.

"You know what great things i witnessed last sunday?" by Camille Ramos

• Well, i was not able to attend church at my home branch so i decided to attend church at the ward i used to go to since its near the place where my dorm is. So when i was sitting at the end corner of the sacrament hall, i noticed one youngman, in his proselyte clothing, with his bag pack, and with down syndrome.
• I thought, who's the parents of that youngman. After a while, a woman approached him and asked him to sit down cause sacrament meeting will start after 5 mins. The mother was the pianist in their ward. So the young man......
• Went at the last row and the two missionaries sitting there asked him to sit in between them. I realized how missionaries develop christ like characteristics and how well they teach or preach Through example

  A man can learn best through someones good example even if it starts from a simple things to great things. Cause in life it is written in the scriptures that, "from small and simple things are where great things comes"

  By simple act of kindness and love of those around us, we can be like them. We can be like Christ.
• We can be like Christ, not necessarily as perfect as him, but as charitable as he is
