Romans 8:16-17
17 And if children, then heirs; aheirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we bsuffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
This week was a good
week! We taught alot of lessons and had great experiences. We have a new
investigator named XXXX. He met us just earlier this past week and came to
church for the first time on Sunday. In our Priesthood meeting the teacher
mentioned that if anyone ever wanted to teach the class to just let him know
and he could set it up. So today our new investigator texts us and tells us
that he was studying the manual this morning and then asks if anyone had
anything planned for the lesson next week! He wants to teach the class! haha.
He's so awesome! That’s just a taste of what’s going on in this area. A lot of
miracles are happening. We're teaching a couple families that are really solid
and sincere. They are progressing well.
This week in our
mission as a whole did really well. Several records were broken in our mission
this week. The Rogers zone taught 536 lessons. The previous record for our
mission was somewhere in the high 300's. It was ridiculous. Then records were
set this week for progressing investigators, new investigators etc. I'm not
sure who set them or exactly what the new records are. It was just a great
week. Miracles are happening. The work is hastening. And the church is
true.
The scripture I chose
to put in the subject line is one of my favorites. I may have put it there
previously but that's ok. It's awesome. Revelation from God comes in the form
of Spirit speaking to spirit. Often times we think the answers to our prayers
should be dramatic, loud and clear, etc. But they are not. They are soft,
subtle, quiet. The Spirit, speaking to our spirit. We are God's Children. He is
our Father. There is no more fundamental truth that that. And He intends to
make us into the glorious beings that we can become. That’s how he sees us. In
an eternal perspective. Not with the limited mortal eyes that we have. I pray
that we can all learn and remember our true identity as sons and daughters of
God. Those are my thoughts for today :) I love you all so much!
Love,
Elder Sherwood
