March?

Hey everyone,

This week started off with going to Lubbock on exchanges with Elder Taylor. It is always super weird going back to Lubbock because my brain is always just flooded with memories. Exchanges were good. It's always a good time going on Texas Tech campus and trying to contact people and give em the Restored gospel. While we were there I got into a really good conversation with 2 guys about God and life. They definitely felt the spirit but unfortunately they started talking bad about everything they knew about the church. They'd asked me if we believed in miracles by the laying on of hands and asked me a story with it. I gave them the low down about all the concussions in my life and tied that in with priesthood blessings. After that they asked if they could give me a blessing and if I never had a headache again than to rethink Christianity and leave the church🤔 sooo before I could say no the both had there hands on me and commanding me in the name of Jesus to never have a headache again in my life.....funny thing I had an extremely bad headache a little while after that😅 

This week my testimony has truly been strengthened of this gospel and the love that God has for us. The first thing that we teach people when we teach them about the Restoration, is that God is our Loving Heavenly Father. And because he loves us he blesses us here on Earth. He blesses us with families, a home, a knowledge of Jesus Christ and many more things. He gives us little tender mercies that help us know that He Lives and He Loves us. Everything that is good in our lives comes from God. With that comes adversity. If everything in our lives were perfect we would not be able to know the difference between happiness and sadness. We go through things in life that are hard and challenging. But what I have come to know is that however hard life can be sometimes, God does not forget about us. He is there every step of the way and will pick us up when life is hard (if we allow him to). 

In Luke 1:37 it says, "For with God nothing shall be impossible."

This past week we had Zone Conference and Stake Conference and my Mission President and his wife both said something that really stood our to me. But when life is hard and we feel like we are just being weighed down by the world. Make Christ your sail and let him guide you through the storm. No matter what we will face hard things but it is also important to remember that God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers. 

Love yall and hope everyone's well is good.
