This week was awesome!!! This week Lynn made the choice to be baptized on Feb,14th. Elder Bagley and i were so happy. We have been seeing Lynn for 2 transfers. She has been progressing great. She is reading the Book Of Mormon everyday. She prays and comes to church. She is one of the best investigators that i have ever had. Most importantly is that she can feel the love Heavenly Father has for her. I hope that i will be in the area long enough to be at her Baptism. I hope to stay in this area at least 2 more transfers. I can finish my sons 12 weeks.
Oh yeah i'm getting a boy! I find out this Wednesday who i'm training. He will hopefully becoming in with 4 baptismal dates. We have Cheryl,Nick,and Lynn and we hope to set a date with our new investigator Pablo. CHeryl and Nick are the ones with Elder Bagley and I. Pablo is this half Brazilian half Japanese 17 year old genius. He is fluent in Japenese , Portuguese , and English. He goes around helping entrepreneur with their projects. As of right now we can only teach him at Dunkin Doughnuts for like 20 minutes. Because he is so busy helping entrepreneurs . We came outside and he was driving a nice Audi. But he is so solid and wants to learn. Besides that we didn't do much. We did a lot of service.
But this week i wanted to bare my testimony on The Book Of Mormon. I have realized that the Book Of Mormon is really the keystone to our religion. I know that the Book Of Mormon is the most correct book then any book on earth. As a missionary i have the gift of the spirit. I can testify and bring the spirit to those i teach. But without them reading The Book Of Mormon it won't mean as much. People don't have a problem with tithing or fasting. What they really have an issue with is whether or not the Book Of Mormon is the real word of God. Is Joseph Smith a Prophet of God and did he restore the priesthood and that great plan that was given to us by a loving Heavenly Father. That is the real question that my investigators, members, and less actives face.
I can promise you that The Book Of Mormon is the word of god and by abiding in its precepts that we will have peace , joy, and Happiness. This also comes with faith and your willingness to give up your will to the lord. Put your trust in him.Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. Job 13:15. I love you all have a great week.
