Hey
:)
This
week`ll be a little short too. The focus is on the perspective that one
gains in the mission.
I`ve
been in Chile for over a year now. And just now I`m really coming to
understand how this experience is necessary to help teenagers become men and
women ready to take on the world and begin to form a family. This week,
more than ever, I`ve felt like a parent with an erring child. One recent convert
decided to have a full on fight with his mother over something as simple as her
"lying" about not knowing how long the wash had been in.
Then, I had to deal with another recent convert saying he was going to
leave the ward because a couple of members that he had hired had reacted poorly
with his boss in a problem with the pay.
I
learned this week how to have patience. When to not worry about what I
can't control. How to have faith in God and his purposes. How to
trust that people will make correct choices. How to love those that cause
you so much hurt.
Next
week will be a collection of recent talks.
Please
remember to send me at least 2 photos a week, especially during this holiday
season, to keep me up to date, visually, on the going-ons.
