Elder Mease Week 69
well what a week :) I thank my heavenly father for the miracles that both me and my companion were able to witness throughout the week, especially the exchange that we had just this friday! throughout the exchange I went with an elder named elder king and everything that day just seemed to work out for the both of us, as i had prepared prior to the exchange for a spiritual uplifting experience, that is exactly what my father in heaven had blessed me with.
The area that we are working with is doing great! but there is always much room for improvement and greater efforts on our part to find those who are desperately in need of the message we have to share. This sunday, the majority of the people that we are teaching were unable to make it to church and it really gave us much sorrow but we counted the blessings that we had received that very day:)
A lady whom elder king and I had met with had come to church on sunday for just a limited amount of time but we were able to teach her in the evening and answer some of the questions that she had. It turned into a powerful lesson on the restoration where we were able to give her a copy of the book of mormon... her name is cynthia, she is a school teacher in a place far away from where we are but she comes back on the weekends.
With that miracle that we were able to experience, it led to an opportunity for us to meet with her family and introduce ourselves, but everything else for both my companion and I have been the same! we are seeking for greater opportunities to find more people to share this gospel with and it has been a blessing for us with just the people that we have found within this past week.
I love each of you, and pray that you all are seeking for opportunities to serve those around you. In the cape coast mission, our mission president has invited us to memorize scripture passages on the savior jesus christ, and i have taken this opportunity for myself to develop a greater foundation in the savior jesus christ. Within the last transfer I have seen the blessings that come just by simply memorizing a verse about him. the scripture in which i have chosen to learn this transfer is one from 2 nephi 25:12-13:
"but behold, they shall have wars, and rumors of wars; and when the day cometh that the only begotten of the father, yeah, even the Father of heaven and of earth, shall manifest himself unto them in the flesh, behold, they will reject him, because of their iniquities, and the hardness of their hearts, and the stiffness of their necks.
behold, they will crucify him; and after he is laid in a sepulchre for the space of three days he shall rise from the dead, with healing in his wings; and all those whos shall believe on his name shall be saved in the kingdom of God. wherefore, my soul delighteth to prophesy concerning him, for i have seen his day, and my heart doth magnify his holy name".
love you and wish you all a great week:)
