Hey hey hey!!! Hope everyone is well and loving life. This week had a few hiccups but we back in the game, ready to leave the past behind and get moving on to the future.
“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.” (Alma 36:24)
Sometimes we mess up, (by sometimes I mean every day) and we all wish we could take some of those mistakes back. There’s pain, hurt feelings, stress, and experiences that could’ve been avoided if we had just been a little wiser up front. But the good news is, God won’t hold those moments of weakness or failure against us. Those experiences helped us to learn so we could be a little wiser the next time around.
Instead of regretting or beating ourselves up over things that we did or people that we were, let’s focus on the positive changes we’ve already made and the ones we are working on. Like Alma, we can decide from this point on that we are going to “labor” with and for the Lord. Will we be perfect? Absolutely not, but that’s ok. God’s plan is perfect and for now, that’s enough.
Week-in-Review:
- House Hunting! It’s impossible to sleep in our current apartment so we are looking for a new one. Unsuccessful so far but that’s ok.
- No Green Dots! Green dots are people we are actively teaching and we unfortunately cut them all this week.
- Sick Days! My comp got sick so we stayed home Friday and Saturday. It made Sunday pretty hard with no one at church but I got to binge-watch “The Chosen” so it’s kinda a win.
- Marked a Baptism! Everybody pray and fast for Graça, she needs to stay strong.
If you’re currently on a mission, keep being awesome. If you’re not, send me a message during the week, they brighten my day.
Tchau Tchauuu
