Life is Good

Life is good! I mean it! This week was seriously one of the best weeks of my life. I LOVE being a missionary. I have learned a lot about grace, humility, joy, forgiveness, acceptance, and charity this week. Things that seemed impossible at the beginning of my mission are now being realized and comprehended and experienced. Many of them are simply mountains that needed to be moved inside of me. Things that seemed impossible for me to do, but that through Christ, are possible. These lessons are hard to describe or explain, so for now they will have to live in my heart. But I will try to use them to help others see the light of Christ, and to enable me to be a Christ-like teacher. One video the church produced recently called Hope Works (similar to TED talks) was about being Christ-like. She talked about these ratios: Me+Patience=Christ-like

Me+Hard work=Christ-like

 Satan uses this against us until he gets rid of Christ all together... Me+patience=happy, enough.

But these aren't true! It is this truth...

Me+Christ=patient, charitable, WHOLE

....that is the meaning of the gospel.

We need the Savior. And Heavenly Father loves us because we need him. 

I love Hong Kong. I LOVE my family. I testify that they are eternal.

Until next week!
