Week 100

 Mon, Aug 12

What's up guys, this final transfer of mine has been pretty crazy and that's why I haven't had much time to tell you all, and unfortunately some of these stories can be told only once I've finished my mission but if you ask I'll be sure to let yall know,


Anyways this last week has been pretty crazy as well I've been going on the grind, I lost 14 pounds this week, and I'm going for a couple more, 

We had zone conference and it was incredible makes me wish I could extend my mission but we can only decide that six months ago so oh well, we talked about testimony vs conversion and how we can be converted and also about exact obedience and the difference between transactional and transformational obedience, I more deeply learned that a testimony is knowledge of the truth and conversion is the application of that knowledge into action, whether we really follow what we proclaim and what we know, 

Fun fact every choice we make there is a transfer of power when we do what is right we gain a little more of the light of Christ and our conscience becomes more sensitive to evil, and we gain more power, until eventually Satan has no more "power" over our hearts(desires) or rather we no longer desire evil, 

Power was in "quotation marks" because he only has the power we give him as we choose or desire evil then we transfer to him power, he cant tempt us if we never desired that witch was evil, and we transfer power and become his usually starting with 1 flaxen cord at a time until we are wrapped about by the chains of hell, and 1 thread won't make a rope oftentimes unless we have a more sensitive conscience or a greater amount of the light of Christ we may not notice a single thread about our necks. But the same way revelation and miracles and power from god comes line upon line, ray by Ray until a Pilar of light, thus does satins power over us as we give him line upon thread, he may not have great power to pull us with just a thread but eventually he will surely pull us with chains as we steadily wax in iniquity, some may thus try to stay with just a few thread but the scriptures teach us that no one can serve two masters nor can we procrastinate the day of our repentance, I invite you all to remove the chains that bind you and seek Christ who is powerful to save us, if we are unhappy, if we need a miracle, If we desire joy, if we desire to feel fulfillment in our lives, I testify there is only but one way, and it's the gospel of Jesus Christ, I know this because he has removed the chains that bind me and transformed and changed my nature over these two years 


Anyways yawl this was my second to last pday and Wednesday dia 21 I'll see yall in Utah.

Week 52

  I've reached week 52 witch means I've been counting correctly at least,  This week was cool I think, I don't remember it all so imma just talk about the cool stuff that is mostly spiritual We had our interviews with president Harker which was amazing, I've def never met such a spiritual giant like him, he has the spirit with him, he knows what to say in all moments, well he told me about Lucas 14 what man builds a tower without first counting the costs to see if he has sufficient resources to finish it, (Bremner memory translation) then asks me if I remembered what he talked about from his first talk he gave about building mansions in heaven, and it sufficed me to say that I told him I dreamed about this interview a week before and that I had dreamed about being in an interview with him, and he asked me the same questions he asked me in real life,  He asked me an interesting question, many tell themselves I didn't sign up for this, well what did you sign up for, w...
