大家好!
-I feel like I have moved to Vernal
-Went to a real park (I didn't know they existed like this)
-Listened to some incredible talks and BYU devotionals
-Biked for an hour on a YouBike (I do not recommend)
-Fast Sunday!!!!
-Whenever we put a new friend on Baptismal date the ZLs and STLs sing a song to us (its incredible) (I am so motivated to put people on date)
-The get to know you question in Zone call was "How often do you think about the Roman Empire" and it was the most interesting get to know you Zone Call I have ever experienced
-Got to attend a baptism with one of our friends!!
-Since this weekend is Dragon Boat festival everyone tried to gift us 粽子 (ZongZi) but we successfully evaded it besides 2 (粽子 is not very good)
-Finally bought a real umbrella
-Obedience miracle:
It was 9:24 and we were about 10 minutes away from home. 完蛋了(Wandanle - we were cooked). BUT we sprinted (literally) home and because of our attitude of obedience we made it home in time. The clock turned to 9:31 when we closed the door. God can literally bend the laws of space and time and allow us to keep the promises we made with him if we do our very best!
-Church miracle: Because the 中壢 (ZhongLi) chapel is being renovated, their ward comes to our chapel for sacrament meeting on Sundays. One of my moms RCs is in the 中壢 ward, so I got to see her on Sunday! How unbelievable is that?
READ THIS PART
I listened to a devotional this week that really changed my view of personal revelation.
“The Most Desirable Above All Things”
Salani L. Pita
May 13, 2025
Salani shared many experiences from her personal study of the scriptures. She would share the scriptures and words that stuck out to her and then say this:
"This is what I read.
These are the words I heard and felt"
I have heard many times in devotionals and conferences that I shouldn't write down what they say, but that I should write down what the Holy Ghost teaches me. This concept never made sense to me until I listened to Salani's address.
"13 But behold, that which is of God inviteth and enticeth to do good continually; wherefore, every thing which inviteth and enticeth to do good, and to love God, and to serve him, is inspired of God. (Moroni 7)
Those are the words that I read. These are the words I heard and felt:
Every good thought that you have is inspired of God. Believe that your good thoughts are divine...You should get a notebook and write down the good thoughts you have when you can't act on them right away." (Salani L. Pita)
This example struck me deeply. When we are studying, every single thought that we have that is good is from God! Even as a missionary, I still had to realize that this was the case.
I decided to get a little notebook. It is my revelations from God notebook.
I now understand that every good thought that I have is the Holy Ghost teaching me something, and so I write it down. It is the same for us all.
How will we act on these good thoughts?
That is the test God places before us :)
