No Title

Hey guys, this week was not crazy. It was very plain and simple. I woke up, did missionary work and then went to bed. But it was fun. One day after I woke up and before I went to bed, we had a lesson with Derrick (baptist preacher guy we teach) and we were talking about everything we have taught him. He has learned so much, and he tells us that everytime we come over he knows the truth of the things we teach. So we decided to have a lesson on "acting" or doing something about the things you know. And this is kind of a lesson for everyone. James 1:22 "be ye doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." We are constantly learning things when we are doing our personal studies, listening to testimonies of others, lessons from others, and even General conference... butttt.... How often do you actually DO what you're being taught? Now let's be honest, theres a small percentage of you that could answer that question honestly and feel good about it. I'm sorry to call you out and make you feel bad but that should encourage you to start growing your testimony. Nothing in this world is more important than your testimony, so nothing is more important than growing your knowledge and faith in Christ. We each need testimonies strong enough to withstand all the hate and negative things that are going on in the world right now. And I hate to say it but SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN IN YOUR LIFE THAT WILL MAKE YOU QUESTION YOUR FAITH/TESTIMONY.... I promise it will happen if it hasn't already, its life and it's part of the test, and you need to be prepared. You have the resources, so it's on you entirely, to be prepared. I just want to leave that with you, I'm not here because it's fun, I'm here because it's important that these people here in the south can have the knowledge that you all have been blessed with. So please dont take advantage of the things you know, and act on the things you learn. Oh, the missions going good too lol something cool happened but I'm not gonna share until next week. Love yall! I will see you all next year!
