A Missionary's Work: Love

4/30/2018

Hey guys how's life in the U.S. of A? Here we're doing not so great... just ... Awesome!! This week we found a lot of people to teach and it was great! We got to go to this far part of our area and it was great, just straight bukid (farm land) and it was peaceful, full of even Nicer people (didn't know that was possible), and just overall a great time. I really love it here and I love being with these people. 

Well with this short time here's my spiritual thought.    I think since i've been here i've really learned about charity or love for others. But i've got to say looking back it all started when I was a kid in being a recipient of much love. Looking at key role-models of mine and their example I sense a ton of love. My Mom is probably one of those bigger examples for sure! I remember when I was kinda rebellious and even though I was I knew I was still welcomed by her and that kn matter what I did or do, she will. Then its always good to think of an even bigger example, the savior.  Though he served many people all his days and loved them and did everything he could for others, in the end, after suffering for the sins of a fallen people, he was then taken. Mocked, beaten, and suffering he took it all and then died on a cross for those same people. Thats a great amount of love. Maybe its one of those traits that make life more worth living or just me, but I know if we can love everyone even your enemies or those kinda annoying people who honk angerly at you though they don't know you still can not control traffic. Anyway the point is if we really want to become better and follow abetter example, this might be where we should start and I know if we truly are trying and seek for help from God, we'll get just that and become a lot better. I love you guys and hope you have a great week. 1st and 2nd commandment huh! take care!!
