Highs and Lows

Mission Photo from Conference with Elder Bednar

Let's start with the lows:

-An investigator decided he didn't want to be involved with the church.

-One of our investigators couldn't come to church because of work and so we had to move back his baptismal date.

-We couldn't find anybody selling tamales this morning.

Now for the HIGHS:

-Another investigator is progressing wonderfully, reading her Book of Mormon every day.

-We found an awesome nuevo who is so excited to learn more.

-We have a big 15 Septiembre celebration this Friday with the whole Stake.

-We found a cool mountain path shortcut from one area to the other.

-The Lord's hand is in our lives on the DAILY, really on the hourly.

-The church is SO TRUE.

There are highs and lows every week, pretty much every day, and often every hour of our lives. But what I have realized is that the weight of the highs is much greater than the lows. I am so grateful for the opposition that allows me to see and feel the immense joy that comes from the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I encourage you all to find ways to be grateful now, no matter how low or high you may feel. And I promise you the highs will always outweigh the lows, because we have a loving Heavenly Father, and this gospel is JOY.

The church is true. I know it, I live it, I love it.

Have a joyful week!
