How
is the new area? How was your travel there? How is your new companion?
It's too bad
that you had to leave such a great situation so quickly. It must have
been super discouraging. Just remember who is in charge. The Lord knows
what opportunities you need to get the experiences you need so you can
accomplish his work. Looking back you will see the wisdom in all of
this. We are so proud of you and the work you are doing.
We
hope you had the opportunity to watch or listen to conference and hope
you enjoyed it as much as we did. There were a lot of great talks
supporting missionary work. Also, talks guiding us in how to deal with
the many challenges going on in the world today.
We
are all doing well at home. It was a busy week with Parent Teacher
Conferences and keeping up with homework. Megan started working again at
Cross E Ranch for the Fall Festival. It has been super cold and rainy
here. Oh and Bountiful beat Woods
Cross Friday in overtime, 13-10. It was pretty sad, Woods Cross turned
the ball over like
6 times.
Elder Gary B. Sabin of the Seventy talk, April 2017: Stand Up Inside and Be All In
"Gratefully,
we know how it ends for the faithful. When we are “all in,” we have the
all-encompassing assurance that “all things work together for good to
them that love God.”
As Elder Neal A. Maxwell said, “Don’t fear, just live right.”So
it is with us. As we are faithful, we can have equal certainty that
things will work out well for us in the end. The Lord’s promises are
sure. This does not mean this mortal university will be easy or without
many tears, but as Paul wrote, “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard,
neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath
prepared for them that love him.”
"May
we recalculate our route if need be and look forward with great hope
and faith. May we “stand up inside” by being valiant and “all in.” May
we be pure and courageous in defending our Heavenly Father’s plan and
the mission of His Son, our Savior."
Also, some thoughts from Henry B. Eyring from October 2017 conference:
"When we stand with faith upon the Lord's rock, doubt and fear are diminished; the desire to do good increases."
"Sometimes you will be the Angel the Lord sends to bear others up. Sometimes you will be the one surrounded by Angels."
"That desire to bless is the fruit of people gaining a testimony of Jesus Christ."
We pray for you
and love you a ton! Continue to work hard, "Be All In", and bless the people of Mexico.
Love,
Your Family
