Alma 38:5

It was a really good and really long week of work. The best part was yesterday. We found so many people just ready to hear the message of the restoration. 

I´m sure many of you already know but this week I was faced with a pretty big trial learning that my Dad has some pretty serious problems with his health. It was really hard for me to focus, especially Saturday morning but my comp read to me the scripture I needed to hear. Alma 38:5. You should all read it but basically it talks about trusting God and receiving His help. I decided to do that and just got over my own worries and focused on the work. That day we did splits with the Priests in our ward and had an incredible experience. All three of the kids said they have so much more desire to serve a mission now. We really did see miracles together and I was really happy to be able to work with the youth. 

We will each choose whether trials break us or make us stronger in Christ. I encourage each of you in your own situations to turn to God more and trust Him more. That is how we will be able to come to Christ and be perfected in Him. Choose to be awesome :)

I love you all,
