안녕하십니까?
We had a good last week! The weather is getting warmer, and spring is arriving! I love the warm weather. This week the temperature jumped back and forth a bit though, but it is on an upward trend!
This week we were able to meet a few people! We met an older man up in a exercise park on the mountainside that he goes to every morning. We have met him several times before. He is a kind man! But I don't know if he really has gospel interest. His name is M_L_
We also met KW again this week! We met at the church, and just did a Gospel discussion. Before we met, we asked him to read 2nd Nephi 4:15-35. He did it! Then we had a great discussion. We talked about our role as missionaries, why we share the Gospel, and how it has blessed our lives. KW is curious about the Gospel, but still not quite to the level where he really wants to know if it is true or not. Please pray for him to continue to meet with us and have a desire to learn more! He is a great guy, really fun to spend time with! And needs the Gospel :)
We had a miracle the other night! We are making a video of some of the missionaries in our mission saying what the Book of Mormon means to them. Me and Elder Y didn't make our clips yet, and we had been held inside all day with some things we had to get done... It was about 8:40, and we decided to run out and talk to people, share the Book of Mormon, and take our videos if we found a cool place to do it.
Well we got the videos taken, and met a couple of cool people along the way! Especially at the end Elder Y had a feeling to go a certain direction, then we met this 20 year old kid who was awesome! He has no religion, but he read the Bible when we was bored before. We gave him a Book of Mormon, and he was willing to help me with my portion of the Book of Mormon video! We will put in on facebook in the next couple of days :) Anyway his name is JH. He agreed to meet us again tomorrow! Pray that things will go well please!
Well I love you all so much! In closing, I want to share the verses that KW liked from the Book of Mormon reading:
2nd Nephi 4: 20, 26
"20 My God hath been my support; he hath led me through mine afflictions in the wilderness; and he hath preserved me upon the waters of the great deep.
29 Do not anger again because of mine enemies. Do not slacken my strength because of mine afflictions."
Let's choose the path to focus on the things we have control over, and not give up hope our let our heads hang because of things that we cannot choose. Everyone has afflictions. Everyone has pain. Some seem to have a whole lot more than others. But God leads us on the path He knows we need to go, if we are willing to follow Him. He will be our support, when we choose Him.
Love,
Elder Beckett
PS Next week is zone conferences. Please pray that we can get through well! And share the messages we need to :)
