HEYOO!! ITS BEEN AWHILE SINCE IVE SENT MY OWN PERSONAL EMAIL haha
I'm in Cartersville now! I'm at KSU a college in Kennesaw super amazing area!! I'm over just YSA and I couldn't be happier!! This past week WAS OUTSTANDING!! I'm companions with a great missionary! His name is Elder Lee he and I were in the same zone about 6ish months ago. He is that COOLEST! I LOVE MY GUY!! then he and I are training a new missionary his name is Elder Blake! He is a straight stud and is ready to work hard.
FRIENDS AND FAMILY IM SO EXTREMELY GRATEFUL FOR THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST! These past couple weeks have been the busiest times of my entire life! I absolutely love the chance I have to be able to meet and teach all these people! I've been changed out here! 1 amazing thing I've learned is about The Atonement of Jesus Christ both the reedeming power and the enabling! IT IS THE MOST INCREDIBLE THING EVER! while I've been studying this we had Elder Bednar call our mission for a Devotional. He spoke about Jesus Christ and about The Book of Mormon. He really hit on The enabling Power of The Atonement of Jesus Christ!! He talked about what we can do to allow that into our life and how we can gain that divine power through the Atonement and how we can be strengthened through the Lord!! As you know we finished the BOOK OF MORMON CHALLENGE! It was so incredible to find the doctrine of Christ and to see how the Book of Mormon can apply to me and how it relates to exactly what I need and to my questions!
I know with all my heart that JESUS CHRIST IS OUR SAVIOR AND REDEEMER! He is the one who we can receive divine power through and He is the one who will strengthen us! GUYS! it is ABSOLUTELY SPECTACULAR!!
This past week we taught a guy name Jett who came out by his friends who bashed us at the KSU campus but get this, he came to Church with us by himself and he asked so many profound questions and questions he truly desired to know the answer to! We also taught Ebow and he is so cool he has a stutter but is the sweetest guy. He is from Ghana! We put him on date for September 9th so we are stoked!!
We also taught a super dope lesson with a member in the YSA that is now on a mission and his 2 friends are interested and we taught with him and to his 2 friends. They were so interested! Blake and Omkumar are literal studs! They are actually coming to Family Home Evening tonight with us!! I'm so grateful for the great people I've gotten to meet already here and the amazing friendships!
I have been studying alot about Covenants and covenants (for you that dont know) is a 2 way promise we make with God! It is so powerful and special to me!! I absolutely love Divine Power!! It is so cool how we can be strengthened through the Lord! All in the Book of Mormon we learn how people are strengthened. This is a new challenge where we are searching for being "Strengthened in the Lord" I'm so excited because an Apsotle of God invited us to do this and so much more!! I'm so excited to continue to understand divine power and the enabling power of the Atonement!!
" The key to receiving divine power to overcome opposition and move the Church forward “is the covenant we make in the temple—our promise to obey and sacrifice, to consecrate unto the Father, and His promise to empower us with ‘a great endowment"
Consecration is such a cool and huge thing!! I have a talk I want yall to read! Also a great scripture!!
-
"Reflections on a Consecrated Life"
1 Nephi 7:17
"17 But it came to pass that I prayed unto the Lord, saying: O Lord, according to my faith which is in thee, wilt thou deliver me from the hands of my brethren; yea, even give me strength that I may burst these bands with which I am bound."
I love this! Even in our hardest times and even with Nephi he didn't asked to be saved from the trial or be taken out of that situation. But asked for strength and power to overcome the trial that arises or the affliction or heartache. I know that it is through the Enabling Power of The Atonement of Christ and through His Divine Power that we can be strengthened and that we can overcome anything thrown at us!! Friends and Family! TAP INTO THIS AMAZING POWER! STUDY, APPLY, AND LIVE!! I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!! HAVE A GREAT WEEK!!
LOVE, ELDER WOLD🤍
