California Fresno Mission=The
Best Flipping Place Ever
Anyways, just thought
I'd throw that out there for everyone to read. It's good to get some
solid truths in our hearts and souls. Feel free to come check out the
Central Valley anytime. It may not appear it, but it's got SOUL!
Haha it's been another
great week out here in the blessed Vineyard of the Lord and I'm loving being
with Elder Flores. We literally are just tearing it up together!
He's got a great personality, loves to run his mouth, and overall just loves
being a missionary. It's contagious! I love trainees! They always
come with such enthusiasm for the work! Great stuff.
Eduardo Vielma will be
baptized this Sunday! He's committed to be baptized to prepare himself to
baptize his aunt and uncle whom we are teaching also. They have to get
married so they'll have to wait a little bit.... He's so solid and loves
learning with us and actively participates in classes in church! What a
stud! So yes, the work continues. We are working with so many other
great people it's ridiculous! Stay tuned in the coming weeks for updates
on their baptisms and conversions!
Interesting tidbit of
study I had this week: Worship. What is worship. It's how we
show our respect and devotion to God. How do we as a church worship? You
ever thought about that? How do you personally worship God is another
great topic of thought. I've come to the conclusion through studies this
week that worship is imitation. Being a sports fan, following People's
magazine, or movies, whatever, are all small forms of worship. We want to
be like them or have something we've seen from their. We like how we feel
when we read, watch, or listen to them. The same goes for our worship
with God. When we truly worship Him, we imitate Him. And since in
John chapter 5 verse 19 states that "The Son can do nothing of himself,
but what he seeth the Father do," we are following the Father by doing
what The Son has shown us to do. True worship is becoming like God
through our daily actions. If we truly worship God then we'll show it in how
we live. And since God is a jealous God, he asks us to worship Him over
all other things. So anyways, hopefully that all makes sense. It was a
cool topic of study for me this week and hopefully it made y'all think a
little.
Anyways, this work
continues to roll on filling the whole earth and I'm immensely grateful to be
able to be a part of it!
