Week 60: Zippity Doo Dah

Hey y'all!
This week was really good. We definitely saw the Lord's hand moving things into His order!!
We are switching from an apartment to a house this week, it took us FOREVER to find something suitable for the missionaries, but we think we found the right place.  We have been trying to have more regular contact with our investigators, it's been working out well!!  I have definitely seen faith grow in some of the people we are teaching.  

Some people take longer to accept the Gospel than others.  Some grow roots before limbs.  Some almost don't make it.  But the thing that brings joy to all of them as well as all of us is the Book of Mormon, another Testament of Jesus Christ.  It truly is the keystone of our testimony, the keystone of our witness of Christ, and the keystone of the doctrine of the Resurrection.  The Book of Mormon is such a valuable record!! 

In the new book put out by the church, "Saints," it narrates the beginning of The Book of Mormon.  It shed new light for me on how small the flame of the Restoration got at many points in time.  What it also shed new light for me on is how much the Lord requires a broken heart and a contrite spirit to do His will.  We can help others so much as we submit our will to His.

I love y'all!
