This week has been
exciting! Today for p-day me and hermana Maravilla will be going to the SPAM
museum, finally. we will find out all of the background details of why we get
emails that have ads and stuff that we don't want. just kidding! we get to see
the process of canning pigs! sooey! so i will be sending pictures of that next
week (:
We had the opportunity of attending a Pentecostal youth church
service this week as well. One of our investigators we are teaching invited us,
and it is an experience I will never forget! It is very different from the
church services we have and I really got and understanding of why it's so great
that we have the restored gospel on the Earth. Their pastor gave a great sermon
on knowing your identity, which is an amazing topic that I love talking about
as well, knowing who we are and acting on it!
But, I know that it is so important to correctly understand who
our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ really are and through their correct
principles and teachings, we can truly understand who we are. And in that we
know our true identity. We are sons and daughters of our Heavenly Father. And
our identity leads us to be like them. In that is true happiness and peace.
Just being there, listening to what was being said, to really
contemplate what is truth, and feeling gratitude for the knowledge I have in
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
I know that we all search for truth in this life. We seek for
happiness and peace and comfort. We strive for a firm foundation where we can
become steadfast and unshakable. Where what we know and do and say, are
familiar. They are not abstract.
The best thing I've come to realize about the gospel is that it
is not something new, it is just things I had forgotten.
The truth in our true identity is to hear truth, and through
that, remember who we are and it is familiar to us. And when we come to that
truth of who we are, we live it. And we find our foundations are set before the
beginning of the world. We have always been sons and daughters of God.
It is our divine Identity to be like our Heavenly Father. (: and
that is a feeling of comfort and peace and happiness.
That is what the restored gospel of
Jesus Christ can do for us with every correct doctrine and principle we learn
and apply. We can understand who we are!
I hope you all have a great week and an awesome Mothers Day!
LOVE YOU MOM!
Love
