Purebreds

Hey :)

A quote from a talk given a couple of weeks ago in Stake Conference:

The process to become of certified pure bred horse is not just researching the bloodlines.  The horses are put through a long and serious training process.  They are taught to always come to the trainer when a bell is rung.  Are significant preparation, the final test happens.  They`re put in a corral without food or water for 3 days.  The first, they kick and whinnie.  The second they try to break down the stable.  The third they lay down in desperation and weakness.  At the end of the third day, they`re let out with water and food laid out for their consumption.  Of course out of need they head straight for the water, but then the bell rings and they must come.

There are several ways to apply this story to our lives.  The second coming of the Savior, enduring to the end, living up to our potential and preordination, repentence, and many more.  I hope this small spiritual thought illuminates your mind.  The challenge for the next week is to find a small, short spiritual parable or story and send it to me :)

Daniel passed his baptisimal interview, so we`re excited that he`ll be ready for next Sunday.  We had stake conference yesterday.  It was highly spiritual and focused on real growth, and personal progression.  Something that the stake president said that I like was, "With faith and action promeses are fullfilled".  Today we did a deep clean of the apartment.  It was very enjoyable.  Also, I had the chance to have an exchange with the assistent for a couple of days.  He helped me in my leadership and my vision of the mission.  Great missionary, Elder Giñazù.

Sorry for the short letter, next week should be better...

Mucho Amor
