Week 50  (11/4/19) Baptism & Time for God 😊

HEEEEYYYYYYYY FAMILY!!!

Well these past few weeks have been good. Its still SUPER hot here, so hot that I usually take 3 showers every day LOL! Our ward is pretty big. We had a baptism here a little while back, her name is Helena, but pronounced Elena, because they don't use the letter H like we have. 

Here a while back, I had the privilege of going to institute with someone we are teaching, and I have never loved institute more, because when I was at home, I drug my feet, but now I am super excited when I return home to go. Anywho, he gave a lesson on suffering, and how we don't have to suffer forever. We pass through trials in our lives to help us learn and grow. 

Something that was interesting was how our tempo(time) to God is nothing to us, for example:

• 1 day for God, 1000 years for us
• 2 hours to God is 85 years for us
• 27.1 min to God is 19 years for us
• 22.8 min to God is 16 years for us
• 2.85 min to God is 2 years for us
• 1.07 min to God is 9 months for us

I feel like with this information that we need to use our time with wisdom, because truly we don't know when Jesus Christ will return or when our time here on earth will be over, and so we need to do the small and simple things, read, pray, repent EVERY DAY go to church, and strengthen our testimonies. These are just some some small things, and every time we bear our testimony it grows. Never miss an opportunity to share your testimony with someone else, because as I had some experiences this past week God ALWAYS answers our prayers, sometimes its through another person, so we could be that answer.

I love you all, thank you SOOO Much for your love and support. 

Have an amazing week and go to the Temple.
