One word- impressed,
Our family is changing for the better and progressing! That is what the
gospel is all about! If i have learned one thing on the mission it is that we
must always change and improve. We taught a lady yesterday who, rather
sarcastically, asked me: "Do you really think that we need this book of mormon?
isn't the bible enough? For me i am satisfied with the bible." ... Do we 'need'
the book of mormon? what a funny question. I responded that it is not a question
of need, but want. I WANT more words from my father. Imagine if Dad raised me
until i turned 18, wrote me a big long letter, and said "well bryce, i love you
so much that i wrote this letter for you. so when you need me you can read this
letter and you will find the answers you need. i won't write more, i won't talk
to you, but you'll know what to do. Good luck!" haha. God is MY heavenly father.
He wants me to be happy and successful.
Our lesson on Sunday was about the spirit and following the promptings of
the spirit. We are studying the life of lorenzo snow and i really am liking the
manual this year. I liked the story of the two friends that saved his life by
performing CPR in the 1860's... almost 100 years before CPR was developed by
doctors and adopted by the medical community... Interesting huh? The Spirit
teaches, reminds, and He guides.
I will be giving a training in our district meeting tomorrow about the
importance of asking questions and i remembered a tuesday tip that dad sent me a
little while ago. we have to ask brave questions that go beyond the surface. I
am so greatful for you guys going above and beyond with quotes, scriptures,
pictures... you guys don't have to send extra stuff but you do! i love you so
much and hope that i can do the same for my investigators. Pray for Fabíola
(Fa-bew-la) and Higor (Ee-gor) they will be baptized on Saturday! :)
The church is true!!!
Amo vocês,
