Yup, I'm still going to be a ranch hand for another 6 weeks!!! I love ranch'n it up!!
This week has been a good week. It was a tremendous week with all of our new investigators. We really have gained their confidence and the love when we visit them. A lot of them are keeping their compromisos (I forgot what this word is in English) and many are improving. It makes me so happy to see these people put their faith in Christ and start living his gospel. I can literally see the change in these people when they follow Christ. Their attitude is different and they literally have a light in there eyes. I just rejoice and give thanks to my God because I am so blessed. I am so blessed to be here and be an instrument in the hand of my Lord. I have a love for this people that is real, I yearn for their well being. I just want them to have what I have. I want them to feel what the gospel can bring into their lives. It just makes me so sad when they reject the gospel because they are missing out on so much joy, happiness and blessings from our Heavenly Father. It's part of the work. I can only do the best I can to be obedient and have the spirit with me and to share all the feelings that I have. If I do this, I will be at peace and I will know that I am doing all that I can do. I will feel the love of the Savior, my Brother, in my life.
Yesterday we were with one of our investigators named Graciela. She couldn't come to church because she went to the hospital because she was feeling really enfermo. (she is pregnant) so we visited her in the afternoon. We didn't know what we were going to teach her but after the prayer, we just started talking. We started talking about the Savior and all of the things he did for us and about his life. The miracles that he preformed and how we (my compa and I) are literally representatives of Jesus Christ. She felt the spirit really strongly and she asked if we could give her a blessing. We said of course. I explained to her that this blessing is going to work on faith, and her own faith. I told her if you really believe and have faith in your Savior Jesus Christ you will be healed. We gave her the blessing. I
felt very .... I don't know how to describe what I felt, but a feeling that was really powerful. When my compa said the words "in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen" I opened my eyes and Graciela was in tears. I asked how she felt? She said "I feel tranquility and peace and all my pains are gone." Then she just smiled really big and thanked us. Family I have never felt the power of the priesthood so strongly. This experience was so special, and there is no other feeling better than feeling the spirit. It's better than a day of blue skies and 4ft of fresh powder. It's a feeling that is not expressible. I love it!!!
I am a missionary of the Lord. My time is short, but oh there is so much work. This is my life and I love it. I would not trade it for anything right now. I am becoming the man that my Heavenly Father wants me to be!!!
