I am doing so well and feel so much love and peace for the
good things that are happening.
I just met a lady who moved into the ward who joined the
church because something she heard at General Conference while sitting in the Conference
Center . The Spirit is so strong
there and we will remember the feeling that is there forever.
I have been struggling this week with just "feeling the
music" of the gospel. I have been so diligent and have seen miracles daily
but I just haven't been feeling as much as I normally do. I know that is one of
tools Satan tries to use. In my scripture study this morning I was able to see
that the way we "always retain in remembrance the greatness of God"
is by looking at our blessings. I know I have been so blessed in my life because
of your and mom’s diligence in teaching me and leading me the right way. Thank
you for your constant example.
Our vision in our VGP this month is virtue and in my
patriarchal blessing it talks about that quality is something I need to
constantly strive for. It says you and mom are to school me in virtue. I have
gained a deeper understanding of what virtue is. It is the prerequisite to
receiving all the Lord has. When I think of virtue I think of purity and purity
makes me think of consecration. Giving 100% to the Lord because of our pure
love. What do you think of when you think of virtue and how has that helped you
achieve goals in your life?
A quick miracle is Austin .
We felt inspired to knock on his door. He is our neighbor and a couple of weeks
ago the door had a for sale sign so we thought we would just introduce ourselves
to him as a neighbor. He just moved her from Texas
so he new nothing about the Church. That never happens! It was so fun, I felt
like I was in a different mission! haha. So, we told him about the Book of
Mormon and asked him to read 3 Nephi 11 and set a return appointment. Since he
is single and we needed another sister to go with us. The day of his appointment
happened to be the day that Sister Kent was visiting Green River
so she came and taught with us! He read the chapter we gave him twice and had
lots of good questions! The lesson was so filled with the spirit and he is
excited to keep meeting with us. He says he will be baptized if he feels the
truth of our message. He is going to pray about the Book of Mormon before we
return.
We have found another new investigator, Tiffany, who is so
like me. She is kind of hippie-like and loves Jesus Christ. She said she wants
to do whatever makes her heart sing. She loves sun flowers and creating things
and I have so much love for her. She has 3 kids and she is our next door
neighbor! ah love her.
The Clarks are being baptized on Saturday so things are going really great. Charlotte
is preparing for her baptism on the 19th but her husband, Allen, is going to
wait. I am exciting she is leading the way because she is so solid! I know
that the Lord is blessing me and the people in Green River .
He knows all of his children so well. I know it.
Elder Berry
knows Elder Webb but he knew him first as the guy with the car dealership in Farmington .
haha He is a convert so people told him Elder Webb was a 70 and he didn't know
what that meant. He was baptized when he was 20.
Love, love you!
