Not a ton has happened this week. It has been hard because lots of our investigators have started to work and do other things, and so they are not in their houses all the time. But we are continuing to look for more people to teach. We have a new goal in the mission, and that is to talk to 20 new people each day. Some days it is really easy, but other days not as much when we have lots of appointments. But it has helped us a lot in our area.
I read a little this week in Jesus the Christ, and one thing stood out to me a lot. It talked about the Father our Heavenly Father, and His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ. The few times that we hear the vice of our Heavenly Father, in reality the only times in recorded scripture is to present His Son, Jesus Christ.
Matthew 3:17
And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Matthew 17:5
While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
3 Nephi 11:7
Behold my Beloved Son, bin whom I am well pleased, in whom I have glorified my name—hear ye him.
JSH 1.17
One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!
WOW!! I thought I really am waiting for the second coming. For our Heavenly Father to present His Beloved Son to us again. His commandment to us is to listen to His Son and hearken to his counsels. I know that as we follow Christ we will be blessed. And the way to follow Christ is well, through small and simple ways. To take time to study the scriptures daily. To take time to meditate and speak with our Heavenly Father through prayer. And to listen to Christ's mouthpiece, Russell M. Nelson.
I know this gospel is true. I love it!!
