Kumusta!
This week was really great! We had a great streak of trying of building our
teaching pool and in the process met some really great people. We had several
investigators open with us and share with us of their concerns and their
troubles...and it wasn't a burden to hear them...but it was more of a privilege
because these people could see that we were sent from the Lord to be a guide and
to find answers to their prayers. I felt so touched to see the power that we
have as missionaries. It is so important for us to live up to our privilege as
missionaries and to stand as a light and a beacon to those around us. So many
missionaries are so willing to reap the blessings and the success that comes
from a mission....but they are not willing to meet the requirements that are
needed in order to receive this success. I have felt so sad to be placed in a
leadership position and see the case of this so many times. We are called to
stand apart from the people of the world....it is a simple thing....yet it has
become the most difficult to accomplish.
I have loved being able to work and forget about the days. The mission is
such a wonderful place to really develop yourself and understand what the Lord
has in store for you. I feel like that I have forgotten what day it is...and all
I need to do is work. i am learning that the mission is really the place where
the Lord is shaping you into what you need to be....so that we can be of use
later, in His kingdom.
