Hello everyone!
This week was another week in the mission! Nothing new really happened.
Highlights
- We've found some new study places around our area like the the National Library of Chile and La Moneda (which is like a cultural centre) both are really cool if you want to look them up
- Our friend Noelia who is planning to get baptized this Sunday is continuing to prepare. When we taught were about the Word of Wisdom she chucked her tea and coffee away. It was a strong testament of her faith.
- Our other friend Carlos who had a baptismal date is struggling with some things, and we will have to move the date. So please keep him in your prayers🙏 and Noelia as well😊.
- We weren't allowed to go to areas with lots of street traffic and are very public for the day today (majority of my area). For the election in Venezulo that happened, there were high chances of protests. This night we can hear lots of shouting, car horns, whistles, drums, pots and pans banging, its crazy. So we passed our time in the apartment cleaning, and at the church playing volleyball, and cards.
Spiritual thought: Alma 5:27-28
"27 Have ye walked, keeping yourselves blameless before God? Could ye say, if ye were called to die at this time, within yourselves, that ye have been sufficiently humble? That your garments have been cleansed and made white through the blood of Christ, who will come to redeem his people from their sins?
28 Behold, are ye stripped of pride? I say unto you, if ye are not ye are not prepared to meet God. Behold ye must prepare quickly; for the kingdom of heaven is soon at hand, and such an one hath not eternal life."
I would like every one to ponder these questions. Think about them please. Because the kingdom of heaven is soon at hand. Jesus Christ is coming soon. We need to prepare ourselves to receive Him. I like the line, "prepare quickly." We shouldn't wait to change and prepare. We need to put down our pride and stand humble before God. Remember that God loves you, and He wants you to be prepared for the second coming of His Son. He wants us to be filled with joy and longing for that moment! He wants us to be ready and worthy for that moment!
Invitation of the week: What is one thing you can do right now, the moment you read this, to start preparing quickly?
Love you all!!
Elder Spencer.
