Wow, what a week. This week
was SUPER awesome!!! Definitely one of the most spiritual weeks of my mission.
What I am going to share is just a portion of what has happened. We had Leadership
counsel this week. We all went in fasting and prepared ourselves to be fed
spiritually. Oh boy, did that happen. It was AWESOME!!! We talked about the
atonement. How and why the Savior did what He did for us. It is amazing because
he has done so much for us and asked so little in return. It is a huge comfort
to know that I have someone like that cheering me on. It was super powerful
and we were reading scriptures and we were feeling the spirit and watched a
video of Pres. Eyring and Elder Holland talking with a video presentation of
scenes from the atonement from the church's bible videos. Boom, the spirit is
palpable. And then we end by singing I know that my Redeemer lives. There was
not a dry eye in the room folks, let me tell ya. Very few time have I felt the
spirit that strong on my mission. It is something that I will never forget. Also
when we got home we found 2 families just super chosen and super awesome!
Then
with Conference, it just topped off the week. I loved the talks and the counsel
from our living prophets on the earth. I know that those men and women with
their messages were inspired just as I know that I am sitting here writing.
Man, good stuff!!!
