So this week I added 25 more reps to my 525 jump ropes and 150 push ups and longer wrestling stance drills. We also got to sing with the Nashville Tribute Band, I highly recommend listening to them! We practiced for weeks for this performance and it was absolutely beautiful! A lot of people were crying, but not me, I'm a wrestler, ha! We also started playing a game called Mr. Bufont, you have to get people to laugh and break all these little rules then if you lose, you have to chug a water bottle. One guy lost 3 of 4 games so he was up all night. Then when I have time at night, I make things so I made a hacky-sack and we have a blast playing it. We also taught a district lesson on Sunday about enduring to the end. It's how we repent, obey the commandments (kautusan), have faith in Christ, and make/keep/renew covenants. Then keep doing this process always. Anyways, I found that at times this week, I was pretty irritated, but I thought about how each time I'm irritated or frustrated it's a great time to practice patience and I remember something someone once told me in wrestling season, that you choose between being frustrated or using that time to learn (Thanks Coach D). I have a spiritual thought that is awesome. Read the hymn 29 A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief and Doctrine & Covenants 42:38. It's great to think that in serving God's(Diyos) children you are serving him. So just a small challenge this week, serve someone/ more specifically help someone out, even if it's small like opening a door for somebody or cleaning up a mess you didn't make or helping someone do a project. You will feel good and you will be blessed for serving mga anak(children) ng(of) diyos(God). Alan ko po naglilingkod mga iba biyaya nagdadala. Sa pangalan si Jesucrito amen.
P.S. Practice patience this week too!
