TAN BUENA ESTA SEMANA!!
En serio fue lo maximo!!
We were having a couple of problems finding new people to teach so this week we really got to work with the members and with the people here in our area. It was legit a miracle. We had people come up to us and actually ask us to be baptized. (something that doesn't happen very often here in Peru) It was sweet! This week we actually got references as well and that was super helpful!! My comp and I have been in this area for almost 3 months together and it's going really well!! It's a good time when all day long you crack jokes and preach the gospel, it's a good life.
You might not believe it but I'm actually putting on weight! The lady that makes our food is awesome and she literally gives us so much food hahaha. But it's a good thing. I'm not the same skinny guy I was before hahaha!!
Today i was studying in Mosiah in the Book of Mormon, I was studying about the atonement of Christ and also a little bit about his life. I found a super good scripture...
5 Y así la carne, habiéndose sujetado al Espíritu, o el Hijo al Padre, siendo un Dios, asufre tentaciones, pero no cede a ellas, sino que permite que su pueblo se burle de él, y lo bazote, y lo eche fuera, y lo crepudie.
Pretty much Jesus being a God like submitted himself and suffered temptations. Well we all know that but this week I was thinking about how they all made fun of him and spit on him and all that stuff, and I was thinking about how people kind of have the same mind set and sometimes we get frustrated and lose our patience but I really loved that verse cuz its talks about how even though all that was going on he still was so humble. This week has been a really cool experience.
Also we had a really cool experience with the power of prayer. We found answers to our prayers this week, more than anything we were able to find people who were just waiting for us to talk to them. Thanks to those who supported us in your prayers, they were truly heard. Not much more to say, but your prayers were heard and answered.
This pic is from an interchange that I had with elder Robinson, he's a tank haha!!
LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!
