Hello, beautiful people!
I can't believe another week has come and gone. Our trio is
back to two and we are looking for work. We are beginning a 40-day fast which
has been a huge help just in unifying the ward.
I just want to bear a quick testimony of the power of the Atonement.
This week was a little slow - full of lots of hard work with
little results. But as I sat in our first sacrament meeting I was
engulfed with the love of my Father and felt completely cleansed by the
redeeming grace of my Savior. I was overcome with emotion as I thought about
the sacrifice our Savior made so that we don't have to make any real sacrifices.
Yes, He asks us to keep the commandments, and He asks of our time, and He asks
of our heart, but we see that as we give Him those things, He gives us more
than we lost. There are no sacrifices in the Gospel. Only exchanges for
something better. I know there is true joy when we serve the Lord with all our
heart, might , mind , and strength. I have never been happier in my life.
