Busca lo Bueno

So this week was hot... and 7 months being here in the Poza Rica heat I guess should be teaching me some sort of life lesson or principle.

I think it is that when I recieve my paycheck in the future, I should first put aside my tithing and then put aside money to pay for the air conditioning, because man do I miss it.  

But as President Greer and I talked about in my quarterly interview, we always need to be searching for the good, in best of siduations and especially in the baddest.

So I have been doing that a lot, and it has helped me to be a better person.

Well we had a baptism fall through, and you know I was kindof frustrated, during Gospel principles class the other elders and I were looking for a lesson we can learn from this, because hey had a baptismal canidate not show up too, so it was a weird deal.  

What I learned from that is we need to THINK ABOUT people from the point of view of our Heavenly Father, and not just LOOK AT THEM with his eyes.  

What I learned was my feelings on a lost or postponed baptism dont and or shouldnt really matter, but that our Father in heaven, who wants the best for EACH and EVERY one of us, is heartbroken that they rejected that opprotunity to come unto him and their savior.  And on the other side, the joy that he has knowing that they will be with him, when they do accept him.  

Instead of just thinking about how we can better help them understand the gospel.

So yeah always learning and always sweating, and a lot of walking.  

Sorry if the email isnt very good we are listening to hymns and writing at the same time so it might be a little messy.

Anyway, I love you all thanks for all the pictures and emails.

Till next week.
