You gotta love having energy.
You gotta feel good when your all excited and ready to break the limits.
That is how we have been and how the mission is at the moment.
today we just got out of a meeting with all of the ZL, AP´s, and Pres. Agazzani talking about the "how to" of things. it is so amazing how the mission prepares you for the future. everyone has vision things that they want to achieve and goals that they want to reach. We as a zone -it is to have confident, challenging, exited missionaries who plan efficiently with the members to baptize every week. our other goal is also to have 22 baptisms as a zone. while i am one for getting all excited and bringing in a lot of energy and wanting to be positive and happy. you do gotta sit a back and say "ok. that's what we want. so how are we going to get it?" plans, plans, plans. the how to of things. whatever goal one has in life they can reach it. it being the will of God NOTHING is unreachable or unbeatable. what must be done is consult with our Father in Heaven and create those plans to help yourself, family, work, friends, or whatever it may be grow and reach that goal.
the biggest goal is for us to become as God is. that truly is the purpose of the gospel and missionary work. to help God's children become as He is. To reach that our Father has set his goals and plans that we must follow if we are to reach our desired goal. For me that vision that goal is to become as God is. Exaltation. All of this goes through; having faith in Christ, repentance, baptism (by someone holding the authority), receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end (making more covenants like endowments and temple sealings) to reach that final destination.
this last week though was amazing. HUMBERTO WAS BAPTIZED! it was a miracle and so amazing! he has been meeting with the missionaries for over a year. they have visited him then left for for a bit and back again for the last year or so. i know and testify that elder pastul (my current companion) was sent here to baptize humberto. the change in him was truly amazing how he humbled himself to ask God if the Book of Mormon is true and that Joseph Smith was the prophet that was called to restore Gods church on earth again. the day he came was amazing and i had the wonderful blessing to baptize him. i cannot express the joy and the spirit that came into me after the baptism it was just wow. you can't describe the feeling, all you can know is that it is God confirming the truth. Sunday he got sick and went to the hospital and wasn't going to be able to come, but then 20 before the sacrament meeting was gonna start they let him out and he came flying to the church and was confirmed what a miracle. God is calling His sheep to His fold, and what a joy and blessing it is to be apart of it.
well family i love you and pray for you daily. know that i know that this is the true church of Christ on earth. the priesthood authority is real and being a worthy priesthood holder is so important because with out the priesthood we can't live with God again.
i love you all and send my best!!
