What's going on
everybody! It's Elder Frame right from Kingsburg/Parlier!
Another
week come and gone in my mission! I was thinking about my time the other day
and just made my head hurt. We can never ever get back any time we spend. There
are no rebates. We are here to prove ourselves. Every. Single. Second. We are
on this earth to prove to our Heavenly Father how bad we want eternal life and
exaltation and to live in his presence again. Each and every thought and action
will be a testament to what we truly wanted in this life. So I thought about
that. Is what I do every second of the day showing my Heavenly Father how bad I
want to be with him again for eternity? It shook me up a little bit because I
cannot honestly say that EVERY single second of the day I'm focusing on my
mission, my investigators, learning more, etc. I am striving to be
exactly obedient so that I can, when I come to meet Jesus Christ and my
Heavenly Father, look them straight in the face and say that I strove my best
to use every single second to demonstrate that I wanted to come back and live
with them. I know that right now as I live my missionary purpose EVERY second
of the day I will become the missionary Heavenly Father needs. I'll become the
missionary my investigators need! I'll be showing them second by second or
decision by decision that my deepest desire is to live with them again.
Anyways, that was my deep thought for this past week.
Here's
a super cool quote from Miracle of Forgiveness!
"Happiness is an elusive thing. It is
like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. If we go out deliberately
to find it, we may have difficulty in catching it. But if we follow
directions closely, charting our course properly, we will not need to pursue
it. It will overtake us and remain with us."
Yeah. I
have no inspiring words to follow that or anything. I just really liked
it so yall should read it and think about it!
Anyways,
this past week I had such a bad problem with leaving my stuff ALL over the
zone! I was so forgetful this week! I lost the following throughout
the week: my wallet, our phone, my suit coat, our car keys, our dinner calendar,
my shoe, my planner, my camera, and whatever else I can't remember right
now! It was so bad! We were always having to look for my stuff ALL
WEEK! So yeah, my goal this week is to stop losing stuff. I just
gotta remember that goal. Ha.
Anyways.
Love you all so much! Keep on keeping on!
