Well it has been a while since I last posted. But from what I last heard my mission papers have not yet been submitted to Church headquarters. I can't believe its been a month since I was able to complete my mission papers (which in itself took me a great while) and they still haven't been submitted! But I must learn to be patient. I think that is one Christlike attribute that I will really work on during my mission. I know a lot of you probably don't believe that I am an impatient person...but I am! I just don't show my frustration much. I just let most things slide. But this really is frustrating. All I want right now is to know when and to where I am leaving on my mission.
On another note missionary transfers have come again. Two of the missionaries serving here in the Raymondville branch will be moving elsewhere. My favorite Elder in along while, Elder Kapetaua is leaving to Sinton to serve as district leader. Sister Nelson is leaving to the Corpus Christi area. I will miss them tremendously and Kapetaua most of all. I love the guy! :/ But I know and understand this is just a part of missionary work. Transfers are made based on revelation and we shouldn't question it.
A while back at work I was thinking about faith and miracles. I think most of us don't see miracles in our lives because we don't have enough faith. For example if we ask Father in Heaven for a miracle most of us will be suprised when we receive it. That isn't faith! If we have faith we won't be suprised just greatful for the miracle. Does that make sense? It's sort of like Moses and the parting of the Red Sea. We don't read about Moses and the Israelites being suprised when he parted the Red Sea they just merely walked across the dry land without a word. I hope to have that faith someday! :]
I know this Church is true!
