Week #46

Hello Everyone,

This has been an interesting week. Full of bike problems and doctor visits (everyone calm down--just foot issues). I finally humbled myself, rather, was compelled to be humble by one of our zone leaders to go get it checked out and they didn't even take it out -__-  I was pretty mad and decided I was just going to try and take it out myself again. But then my bike started doing difficult so just more wasting of time which I get very anxious when time is wasted but it's okay, got it all fixed and ready to go. This week one of the cool experiences we had was we re-sparked our investigator Anil with the help of The Ammon and Amuleck of Suriname Bro. Suradj and Bro. Weerwind. It was so awesome and by the end of our lesson he was basically begging us to be baptized. It was so cool!

The Scripture insight for the week is Mosiah 2:5-6

5 And it came to pass that when they came up to the temple, they   pitched their tents round about, every man according to his family, consisting of his wife, and his sons, and his daughters, and their sons, and   their daughters, from the eldest down to the youngest, every family being separate one from another.

 6 And they pitched their tents round about the temple,every man   having his tent with the door thereof towards the temple, that thereby they might remain in their tents and hear the words which king Benjamin should speak unto them; 

In our world today we face a lot of difficult things. The world in it's hustle and bustle is becoming more and more wicked. This past weekend we were able to have a zone conference about the Temple. I have come to appreciate the temple being away from one and not being able to go in the country that I am in but I know that every house hold can arm themselves together against the fiery darts of the adversary and everyone has their "doors towards the temple" That meaning that you all, as a family, are focusing on the temple, that everyone has a goal to go there and that you are also attending as a family OFTEN. It is a house of learning. I encourage all of you to make your homes more temple centered and preparing to enter into the Holy House of the Lord. Love you all!
