HEY WHATS UP EVERYONE!!!! AHHHH THESE PAST 2 WEEKS HAVE BEEN LITERALLY SO AMAZING!! IM SO GRATEFUL FOR MY AMAZING COMPANIONS AND THE FUN THAT WE HAVE!
So many miracles that happened this week! Some hard times too but honestly those helped me grow and understand more about how things happen for a reason.
EBOW IS AMAZING!! crazy thing! His date was for September 25th! But wanted to move it up to yesterday so we did and got everything set! His baptism ended up not happening. BUT. I know it happened for a specific reason now knowing more about him and his family! Ebow will be baptized in the coming weeks which is still spectacular!! He has such a deep desire to learn and a huge testimony in many things especially Christ!
Chelsea is someone I found on the KSU campus about 2 weeks ago! She is the sweetest thing. She is catholic and goes to that church but when I talked about the Book of Mormon it just hit her, especially about Christ visiting people in the America's! Chelsea asks such great questions and understands what we teach her. We talked about baptism and she loved it and wants to be baptized soon :)
Blake and Omkumar! Such studs! We play basketball with them throughout the week and meet on Saturday morning and teach them! They are super nice and were a member referral. Blake has gained such a strong testimony in what we teach and Omkumar is building it everytime. We talked about baptism and they talked about the things they believed and politely rejected our invitation for baptism. But they did so because they want a deeper understanding and we were able to tesify how that will come, by the book of Mormon and prayer and they accepted to study more and to follow our invite. They are doing it :)))))) we promised that as they are baptized and receive the Holy Ghost they will come to know the truth of all things and will gain a deeper knowledge of God's plan and His Gospel!!
We had an AMAZING ZONE CONFERENCE!! we were able to give a good hour training on DIVINE POWER LETSSS GOOOOO!! THROUGH THE ENABLING POWER OF THE ATONEMENT!!
what an amazing topic!! It applies to us so much, that as we're Obedient and follow these guidelines from God we will be blessed and we will access this divine power he has ready for us!! We talked alot about Gratitude and also about going FULL NEPHI!! Nephi in 1st nephi is able to handle a lot of things even when hard ship comes because of his obedience and divine power that he carries through Christ and through the Spirit that led him! Even when things didnt work he tried and tried again
1 nephi 3:7
"And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said unto my father: I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them."
☆ he provides a way for us to accomplish the things he has asked us to do!! I know this and have seen this throughout my mission and my life!! The Spirit leads and guides as we put forth the effort and GO AND DO!! he will strengthen us and show us the path!!
We had the face to face broadcast that WAS AMAZING WITH ELDER BEDNAR!!
1 line I loved!
☆ "Testimony is something we know to be true and Conversion is being true to something you know!! "
☆ They talked alot about Small and Simple things and I think that applies to our conversion! We need the small and simple things in our life to be truly converted to God!
If you have been struggling with praying and studying! PLEASE GET BACK ON TRACK!! it's too important! The Book of Mormon is the biggest instrument in conversion!!
I also gave a talk on sunday!! About Unity, Righteousness, and Love
My topic was:
How do we knit our hearts in unity and love to build up Zion or The Lord's Kingdom? How does this apply to missionary work?
* Mosiah 18:21 *
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
" I also love this quote I used!!
While we strive to be diligent in building up Zion, including our part in the gathering of the Lord’s elect and the redemption of the dead, we should pause to remember that it is the Lord’s work and He is doing it. He is the Lord of the vineyard, and we are His servants. He bids us labor in the vineyard with our might this “last time,” and He labors with us."
I'm so grateful I had the chance to testify of my Savior Jesus Christ!! This is His work and we are the instruments in His hands to help all our friends come to him and to partake of Exaltation to be able to live with our Loving Heavenly Father for all time and eternity and to live with our Families forever!! I'm so grateful to know this truth! One thing my grandparents came up with is that there should be no empty seats in our Heavenly Home! I'm grateful for this chance I will have to be with all of my family!! I love you all and invite yall to do Christ work that he asks us to do throughout the scriptures specifically (John 21) here are 2 good talks to get you started!!
• "Preparing for the Lord's return" (Elder Christofferson)
• " Hearts Knit in Righteousness and Unity" (Elder Cook)
I love yall!! Remember the work you have been lovingly asked to do!! Go out and *LOVE*, go out and *SHARE* your time, talents, heart, etc. With everyone. Go out and *INVITE* everyone to come and see!
CHRIST LOVES YOU!!
Love,
Elder Wold
