Hi Everybody!
I'm short on time, so this one will be a bit brief!
This
week I had to say goodbye to Elder Warner, which was hard because he's
such a stud. Now he gets to enjoy Utah again. :) My new comp's name is
Elder Swainson. He's from Alberta, so I have a native Canadian companion
again!
We've
been doing a lot of knocking this past week, and we'll be doing more of
the same this week, so hopefully we can start seeing some success. Some
lady let us in this week, and we were pretty excited, but all she
wanted to do was bash and argue with us so we left.
Today in studies I read a scripture in Alma 26:22 that says:
Yea, he that repenteth and exerciseth faith, and bringeth forth good works, and prayeth continually without ceasing—unto such it is given to know the mysteries of God; yea, unto such it shall be given to reveal things which never have been revealed; yea, and it shall be given unto such to bring thousands of souls to repentance, even as it has been given unto us to bring these our brethren to repentance.
I
read that and I thought that this scripture is a formula for how we can
share the Gospel with everyone. As we live the doctrine of Christ and
use the tool of prayer to obtain God's will, we will be able to bring
happiness into the lives of others.
Hope you all have a great week!
-- Elder Haslam
