So last week our mission
president sent us an excerpt of a talk by Russell M Nelson called How
to Become a True Generation of the Millenium and I just want to share a
little bit about it with you.
So
it talks about how we hope to achieve the impossible but then we have
to prepare to do so. It talks about how the Lord has always asked his
covenant children to do las cosas difíciles (the hard things). We are
the Lord's covenant people and he askes us to do some seemingly
impossible things sometimes but He knows we can do them. As missionaries
sometimes we feel like we are asked to do really hard things but we
have to remember that we have been called by God through a Prophet to go
out and preach to these people and that with His help, we can do
anything. We have the privilege of seeing miracles every day but it's
not until after we have dedicated all our time, labor, ireas, boldest
efforts, and most fervent prayers. We can and should accept these
seemingly impossible tasks and assignments because as we do, we will be
made into instruments in His hands. I know this is true. We don't grow
until we have passed through something that has tested our faith and we
have had to put our trust completely in Him. At the end of the talk is
asks: How do we achieve the impossible? The answer is doing everything
possible to strengthen our faith in Jesus Christ and increase our
comprehension of the doctrinve of the restored church and looking for
the truth without resting. I know that as we increase our faith that we
will be able to do anything the Lord asks us to do. This transfer was
kind of a surprise and it was looking like something that was going to
be really hard and so when I read this talk las monday, it really hit
home. I'm so grateful for inspired leaders. I know we can do hard
things! Keep you head up! Keep working hard and obeying Him and He will
bless you in ways you can't even imagine!
