Fam,
This week has been killer again. We have done so much and there has
been so much change, which has helped me stay in my groove. We had a new
elder come up into our area and met a bunch of RM's who are selling
pest control for Alterra. We are able to have splits
with members (young men in the ward). All these
Spanish speaking RM's that are in our apartment complex and are even
comnig to our ward now. We are able to get so much work done with all
these willing members. I love it.
The other thing that I have noticed this week goes along with
everything we have been able to accomplish this week. I have tried to
strive for a new life goal: "Do More." This has always kind of been active
in my life and I have said it before but this week
it has just been on my mind always. I want to live my life in a way
where I accomplish so much in all areas in my life. I want to do it with
my family, my career and of course my mission where I am right now. I
want to do more than others think I can do; I
want to do more than I think I can do; and most especially on my
mission I want to do what God knows I can do, through him. Dad has said
now a couple times "Look to God and Live." I have gained a new
understanding and new appreciation for this through this
past week. When we do all we can for what we are pursuing whether it be
a new investigator, a new career, a new song, or a new goal. If it is
good for us and for others and then turn to God when we can do no more
due to exhaustion or the efforts of others
against us, God can shake and bake where we cannot. In the mission this
is God's work not ours so he is extra sensitive and willing, I think, to
lend a helping hand to bring others to Christ and to Him.
I don't have much time again, I will try to write again as well!
Love you so much!
Elder Jonny Bigelow
