We need to prepare ourselves before our missions. Prepare ourselves to work hard, to be obedient, and to follow the will of God. The mission isn't easy. It is full of ups and downs, and we can always prepare ourselves. Not just for a full-time mission. Our missions in all things.
And if we prepare, God will prepare. If we do our part and prepare ourselves first, God will always be there and send blessings.
Jacob 5:61 Wherefore, go to, and call servants, that we may labor diligently with our might in the vineyard, that we may prepare the way, that I may bring forth again the natural fruit, which natural fruit is good and the most precious above all other fruit.
We, as missionaries, are laboring in His vineyard, preparing the way for all His children to partake of the most precious fruit. Not just us as missionaries, but all of us as members of this church.
The Good News of the week is that we have found the most receptive investigator! She is super awesome! Her name is Maribel and she has been prepared from God, seriously. We met her last week in the street and she accepted a baptismal date!! She reads in the scriptures (normally we have to nag twice times already, and she wants to get baptized. She told us that the first time we contacted her in the street her mind was full of worries. She had so many things to do, so many questions. But when we talked with her she was filled with peace and comfort. This is the best part of the mission. When people recognize the peace that comes from the gospel. And the gratitude of being a representative of Jesus Christ!
Have a great week. Happy early Mother's Day!
