Guys I had a whole entire email typed up and then I deleted it. Like a buffoon.
Anyways it has been a super good time in the raliegh are. We have been teaching some super stellar fellas what can I say. There is the guy named mickey who were teaching and he is going to be baptized on the 28th. Ohh. Yeahhhhh. I would say that we have a few more people that we want to put on date but aren't ready. We don't want to baptize them if they aren't really committed. Any who the other people we are talking too are: Diane blackley, matt and kelsey Dixon, Craig Young, and the Barrera family. Some of these families have been taught for a very very long time. It's nuts that they've been meeting with the missionaries for so long. (Like 4+ years)
Also I would have to say that one of the best things you could do right now is make a grilled cheese sandwich. Probably to eat. Would you like to know what the secret ingredient is to the perfect grilled cheese?
Gotta say, it's eggshells. You crush them up. Throw em in. Full dose of calcium for the day.
A couple more things I have to say:
Don't waste your energy on dumb things.
Make sure to change your AC filter this month.
If you fall into a lake in your car remember to roll the windows down so you can get a good old breath of fresh air before you go underwater.
Just a little life hack from your boy.
I would say that the scriptures are good you guys. And im always learning something new. Some cool things about agency. And some thoughts:
God doesn't want us to do good, He wants us to choose to do good. And he wants us to choose to do good because we love Him.
I think agency is one of the greatest gifts we have been given and I think it's cool that we can all choose to to bad and good. It's nice that we can be our own little person you know? I bet God is looking down and sometimes laughing at what we do and how we act. Other times I think He might be sad. I very much believe that if there is a God, than He is. Nice one and. Kind one. You maybe think to yourself " than why does all this stuff happen to me, and I'm not even doing bad things" well. Great question my friend. The answer is that God has a plan for us, and when we chose to come here we chose to endure these hard things too, because we knew the toughest sandpaper can make the smoothest rocks. There are many times when we do not understand why we are being terrible and going through bad times, but I don't think we would be able to understand until we look back on it. The same is like a baby getting a shot at the doctors office, once the baby is getting a shot, it is the most painful moment to him. He might think that he's gonna die, or that he's in mysery and that's not necessarily true. The baby also might think. Hey what's going on? Why isnt my dad protecting from this pain? Why is he letting this happen? And what the baby doesn't know is that this shot is ultimately for the best, and will only hurt in the moment. Cool metaphor for life right? My dad told me that. I have never forgotten it
Anyways yeah. Ladies if you like a spiritual man, then boom. Hmu.
Jk jk. Don't do that
