Hello everyone! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! This is one of my favorite times of the year. I've always loved the lights, being with family, and the spirit that you feel. It always makes me so happy.
Our Mission President allowed all us missionaries to watch a movie today. We chose to watch The Polar Express! It is one if my favorite Christmas movies. The best part about that movie is the message of the movie (and the music). The whole message is that believing isn't seeing. It's exactly what faith is, believing without seeing.
I've had an interesting experience with faith so far. Everything you do on a mission is based on your faith. Finding people, teaching lessons, talking to people, preparing for lessons, and bearing testimony. I've had to learn quickly (and I'm still struggling with it) to be completely faithful and rely on Heavenly Father for everything.
The baptisms and conformations, all by faith. The people we've found and the lessons we've taught, faith. And there is still so much have to learn. There is so much room for faith to grow. It will never stop growing while we are here on earth. I am constantly amazed by that! So keep moving forward, even if you can't see more than just the next step forward. Jesus Christ will hold you by the hand and lead you on.
Love you all!!
