Hey, hey, hey..


So we walk out the door yesterday.. We had one planned lesson and within one hour we had three new investigators.. Soo the lesson here is put your faith first, open your mouth, and the Lord does the rest. It is really amazing. Yesterday Anziano Ballard and Bednar came to the Europe area and they had a womans conference. I cannot say how much i love conferences. To walk away just feeling full. Full of love and a desire to do so much more to push the kingdom of God forward. And that is my ultimate goal.. How do i live in a way to always push that. A thought came to me that even when i come home, i will never stop being a missionary. Even when this tag comes off, there is no reason to stop. There are callings that will need to be fullfilled. Temple work that will always need to be done.. There will always be more. In this past zone conference i about died.. First because i got to see Vanny and Jones, and secondly, they gave us pulled pork! Tender mercies of the Lord i tell you.. Other than all those great things, Pres said something that just stuck. The Lord is hastening His work... are we going to keep up with Him? Am i going to fulfill my responsibility here as well as afterwards. The work never stops. We are surrounded by others who need us, our love, and our testimony. They really do need what we have. SO i told you all about the goal.. Ten people ever day.. When i do that, i will have talked to at least 1,680 people here in my last four transfers.. Immagine if everyone, every member would just open their mouth, be a little more bold, and share the gosple.. That would be millions of people who would have the knowledge we have. The knowledge that God leads  us today through a Prophet... that we can be together forever. That my brothers and sisters, and their kids, and my kids, and the kids of my kids... We can all be together.. Sealed by the power of God for the rest of eternites.. It is amazing. It is mind blowing! And it is our job as members of this church.. as people who have taken upon us Christs name to share what we have.. To emulate our Savior, and His ministry. To prepare this world for when He comes again. I never want to stop.. i dont think i can. There is too much joy, too much happiness that comes when i see anothers eyes open to the knowledge that we have. The world doesnt understand who we are.. Something came out of my mouth before i realized it in a lesson yesterday.. WE are more.. We are more than this body that we are in.. It is the Spirit inside of us..The part of God that is in us.. Anziano Ballard said last night take 100 people on the street and ask them who God is.. What number of responses would come... many, and how many would be right?.. not many. Then take a hundred 12 year olds from the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and ask them who God is. The answer cento per cento would be we are children of a Heavenly Father. We know who we are.. God has given us every single thing that we need, including the knowledge that we need to preseverare sino alla fine.
Love you all un sacccoooo
