Transfers came again, and I am still in the hottest zone in the mission, whoop!
I
am still zone leader and my companion Elder Hernandez is going to
Papantla a really cool zone about an hour away, but he doesnt want to
stop whining about that. But its ok, Elder Dominguez is coming and this
is gonna be his first time as a zone leader so we will have some fun
learning together.
We didnt baptize this week but we are goingto the next couple of weeks so I am still happy to be here.
ONE THING I AM SO GLAD I HAVE LEARNED.
Is
to be honest, you dont have to be the best in everything, just let the
other person feel good if people are talking good about them, and dont
brag. It gets old... After EVERY. DAY.
With
that said Elder Hernandez was pretty fun to be around, and we got along
well, but that is honestly because I learned to hold my tongue. A. Lot.
He is a prodegy but didnt know humility so he taught me how it looks to be "better than eveyone in everything"
I am sorry I am venting, it just all kinda piled up on me till today and I am just kindof letting out a lot of hot air.
We really did do a lot of good work together.
Another
lesson that I love and that I learned is if the gospel isnt helping you
or you dont feel like it is... STOP and simplify the way you are using
it.
Stop with the extravegance. Pray
sincerely and honestly. Read 1 chapter of the book of mormon once a
day. Go to church, 3 hours once a week. LIVE ALL of the commandments.
Repent to feel good again and especialy to FEEL the effects of the
atonement. And think about Jesus as often as possible.
Those
are pretty broad subjects with short titles but if we stop and simplify
the gospel in our lives... THATS WHEN we feel the real love of the
savior, and from that we can begin to build upon that base. But always
return to that base when necessary and stay there for AS LONG AS YOU
NEED!
I love you all and hope you guys are having a great day
thanks for the emails!
