Caio Tutti!!
Well this week we had some lessons that were difficult. But I am happy
that I got to testify of Jesus Christ. I feel so blessed to represent
him every day.
Sometimes it's frustrating as a missionary because you want so badly
for these people to feel the love of God and accept the peace that the
savior can bring them. It's frustrating when people want proof of
every detail. BUT...I know that we can come to truths if our hearts
are open. I know that as humans sometimes we are too complicated. If
we could only look around and see how blessed we are every day...maybe
it's easier as a missionary in Pisa Italy to say this.
38 That ye contend no more against the Holy Ghost, but that ye receive
it, and take upon you the name of Christ; that ye humble yourselves
even to the dust, and worship God, in whatsoever place ye may be in,
in spirit and in truth; and that ye live in thanksgiving daily, for
the many mercies and blessings which he doth bestow upon you. (Alma
34)
I am sure that God loves us. He loves us more than I think we will
ever be able to know. He has not left us to wander here on earth...but
gave his son so that whoever follows him can have eternal life!
I know that our thirst can be quenched through following Jesus Christ!
Are you thirsty to be loved? Accepted? Do you want some peaceful yummy
water...come unto Christ!
14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall
never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a
well of water springing up into everlasting life.(John 4)
Yesterday we spent eight hours searching for a referral named June.
And in the end we didn't find her. I joked to my companion saying
maybe we didn't find her because it's January. Haha. I still don't
know exactly why he had us search for eight hours but I know that some
sheep are harder to find then others and that I continue to work hard
because I love the lord and his children.
We did end up finding some other people from Sao Paolo Brazil at the
station. Such a fun story! I don't know how it's possible to love
someone so much after just ten minutes of talking. Lola is her name!
And she says she will find the church at home. But I have her in my
Facebook for after the mission.
I LOVE MY MISSION. I LOVE THE LORD.
all you friends and family at home....be blessed. Realize God loves
you...drink of his water and share it with others.
Love Sorella skinner
