Search, Ponder, Pray, Share

Drenched on Exchanges with a Member

 "Happiness Moments"


--Eating hamburgers and fries at a little stand outside of the university that is in front of our house.

--Going to the Devotional in the Visitor's Center at the temple.

--Inviting everybody in every bus we get on to learn more about Jesus Christ.

--Getting DRENCHED with rain in divisions with members.
(Haha the good news is that the member still wants to go to appointments with us. :) )

--The fact that the Bishop always calls us "Elderas"



Tomorrow we will have Zone Conference, and we have been studying a lot about the importance of the Book of Mormon, and focusing always on the Atonement of Christ.
My President asked my companion and I to share a couple of thoughts about one of the talks that we read to prepare, and I want to share a little of what we will share tomorrow!(https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/2019/04/45callister?lang=eng) 

Because of the fall of Adam and Eve, we live in a fallen state where we are subject to physical death, spiritual death, affliction and sickness, and weaknesses and imperfections. And thanks to the enabling and redeeming power of the Atonement of Christ, we are able to overcome them all.

1- physical death (Alma 11: 42-45)
2- spiritual death (Mosiah 5: 7-8)
3- afflictions/sicknesses (3 Nephi 17:7)
4- weaknesses/imperfections (Moroni 7: 48)

I am so grateful for the Atonement of Christ in my life. For the knowledge that with His help, I can always come home.

Brightness of Noonday Sun

“If there are some of you who have been tricked into the conviction that you have gone too far, … that you have had the poison of sin which makes it impossible ever again to be what you could have been—then hear me.

"I bear testimony that you cannot sink farther than the light and sweeping intelligence of Jesus Christ can reach. I bear testimony that as long as there is one spark of the will to repent and to reach, he is there. He did not just descend toyour condition; he descended below it, ‘that he might be in all and through all things, the light of truth.’"

-Truman G. Madsen

I also love knowing that as I feel the witness of the Spirit in my life, I can have the assurance that I am on the right path.

“If you have felt the influence of the Holy Ghost … , you may take it as evidence that the Atonement is working in your life.”  -Henry B. Eyring

I love learning more and more about the Gospel of Jesus Christ every day. I love living it and finding joy amidst the struggles. I love sharing the knowledge and hope of Christ's Atonement with all those I encounter.

My invitation for you is to search the scriptures, ponder about the life of Christ, pray for a spiritual confirmation, and share something that you learn every single day this week.

Keep sharing the light that Christ has given you!
