24 Only fear the Lord, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you. Old Testament and studying the bible this year has truly been such an incredible blessing! Here are the updates for the week: - Zone conference was actually such a spiritual high for me and truly made me appreciate the PRIVLEDGE It is for me to be serving here as a missionary and all that our leadership does for us - created a jepordy training on MEMBER relationships and finding through them (aka being friends with them) for our district meeting - 6am ward council lil rough but worth it - rest home singing yayyy hehe - still teaching our friends Chris / Kelvin - we ate at a buffet and I bought my first cultural clothing the puletasi there which i proceeded to lose and get back - having the FUNNEST GAME NIGHT EVER ..

INVITATION: reflect on the following The Allens (our missison leaders) said the following.. * What did joseph smith do for me? (He did not profit from any of it). What did he give? * * Do you think the lord knows whats best for us and to become like HIM and how to rum a mission? * Am i worried about thingsb that have no revelance to eternal salvation.. where is your focus? WHAT CAN I DO to be a better... "Is it cooo to be cool. What is your Cool? Its 6:30 and i don't have very long and I'm on a mission. You gotta be so focused remmeber how short this is.." * gratitude is simply being aware of the blessings and help we recieve * You have a mjssion. WHO do i want to be by the end? See the vision make thr sacrifice. * the scriptures are gods word you can't make a scripture even 1/10th as much as mosiah 3:19 * no one can fill or dump our light (or testimony) except ourselves LIFE ACRONYM Lifelong disciple Invested in eternal marriage Faithful Eternal perspective LOVE YOU ALL sister talbot xx the hill we bike everymorning :) 3 ladies that want to get rebaptized + our dinner entertainment lol us embarressing ourselves but bringing joy to the residents at the hillcrest care center The fittings...
