大家好！
Highlights:
-Put all of 木柵's (MuZha's) potential BD friends on BD??? (Baptismal Date)
-Earthquake!
-Had a lesson in French with Elder Furner helping us translate (I recorded it it was so cool)
-Incredibly spiritual ECG! (Engish class) I've never testified so boldly that the spirit was in the room. Afterwards some of our friends that aren't interested in the gospel started asking us questions about it ;)
-Got soaking wet in the rain!
-Found out I am reopening 新店 (Xindian) and training a baby!
-Transfer day happened and I am now training 賴姐妹 (Lai Jiemei)! She is from 台中 TaiZhong and she is amazing!!! (She speaks basically zero English though so please pray for me)
-A member from my home ward showed up at church??? Eddie thank you so much for visiting me it made my week :)
-Conference in Chinese
-Visited 潘姐妹's (Sister Pan's) house and ate the best homemade food ever! I love her so much!
-Our area book is broken so we are doing everything by paper right now
I am so grateful I got to serve in 木柵 (Muzha) for a time. The people there truly hold such a special place in my heart!
READ THIS PARTOne thing that really stood out to me at conference was the focus on how we can prepare for the second coming of the Savior right now!
I've been thinking a lot about what it will be like to see God. How will I react? How will I feel? How can I become the kind of person who will be filled with joy when I see His face?
I found one answer in Ether 12:
4 Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea, even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.
I want to highlight the last part of this verse. It is by doing good works that we are led to glorify God, not the other way around!
It all comes back to the simple principle of faith. You have to act first!
But what does always abounding in good works mean? What does that look like in a day to day life?
There obviously isn't a cookie-cutter-answers-
To ask yourself 'what would Jesus do right now?' is one way that we acknowledge that he is. When we are constantly acknowledging that he is, we will be always abounding in good works!
Once we start asking ourselves this question, we will act in patience, charity, faith, virtue, diligence, obedience and all other Christlike attributes. I can think of no better way to prepare to meet God then to become as He is. That is our purpose here on earth.
So my invitation is to actively ask yourself what would Jesus do! Act in a way that will please God and you will have a happy life:)
再見!
