This week was fun guys with a good amount of rain and a little bit of wind (I always find myself thinking about the Singing in the rain song haha). I also made a kite out of some plastic bags and bamboo and I can't wait to actually fly it ha! I also found out that ties have like a little bit of room inside that you can store stuff, so being me this is where I catch and hide lizards to freak out my companion and others, hahaha! (ya I don't know why bit they get freaked out by lizards, but I love them ha!).
But this past week was awesome. We got to watch the General conference (where leaders and apostles and a prophet get to speak to the world via satellite broadcast) and it was very revelation-filled and full of great talks. One thing that was said by Stephen W. Owens, then I applied it to faith. Faith is like a bike if we peddle we continue to progress and get to where we're going, but if we stop pedaling we'll eventually fall and stop our progress. When we define faith its belief and works, so its like working on the farm (bukid) if you believe your harvest will be amazing but don't work in the fields you'll maybe get to see a few grains of wheat but not a huge harvest. So if we actually have faith in God and his plan for us it means we'll DO or act on our beliefs. Like the bike we'll progress and get to where God wants us to go. Like the hymn 270 "I'll go where you want me to go." If we act on our faith we'll go where he wants us to go and its for sure a better place than we can think of ha.
Well just a little food for thought and if I were you guys look for the talk its better than my lame words haha! lova ya'll seeya next time !
