Getting Back on Track

Getting Back on Track

Well, this week was a lot better than the last. Except for that it rained the. Entire. Week. I ran out of dry shoes… it´s fine. But it was good, we´re getting better. There´s something that I noticed that happens to me, which shouldn´t, because it also happened all throughout the Book of Mormon AND the Bible. Which is this: we do really well for a few weeks. Weeks super productive, lots of blessings, strong spirit, etc. and then, one week we didn´t do everything in our power, or I didn´t serve with everything that I have, and it shows for the next couple weeks. Then, we gotta figure out what we did wrong, or what we could have done better, and fix it up. And then the next week is great again. This cycle is really annoying and I wish that I was not so human so it would stop happening. But it won´t until I learn to make it stop. It´s funny because the scriptures warn us about this very cycle. AND YET. But it´s okay, I’m learning, and trying to avoid it. 

But guys I seriously love being a missionary. never again in my life will I spend worrying my pants off about how we are going pick up 10 people to go to church on foot. Never again will I be called SEESTER. Never again will I have the authority to call people to repentance and bring them to the truth. “Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life.´´ 3 Nephi 5:13

I’m trying my best to take advantage of every moment, because it´s going really fast. Sometimes I slip into the cycle again, but I’m learning to avoid it, so that I can do the most good that I can, and let God shape me into who He wants me to be as much as possible. 

But I know that we are children of a loving Heavenly Father, and He loves us more that we can even imagine. I know that because of Jesus Christ, we are able to be cleansed of our sins and become like Him. This is the Church of Jesus Christ, how He established and organized it in ancient times. There is no other way to eternal happiness. In the end, the Lord´s way is easier. Because His yoke is easy, and His burden is light. So follow Him. The journey is long, and our feet get heavy, but the path is straight, and leads us directly to Him. We just gotta stay on it. 

FICA FIRME! AMO VOCÊS!!!
