Happy Fathers Day!!!
Scripture of the week: Mosiah 2:34 I say unto you, that there are not any among you, except it be your little children that have not been taught concerning these things, but what knoweth that ye are eternally indebted to your heavenly Father, to render to him all that you have and are... Through the atonement of Jesus Christ, we can be all in for the Lord! Elder Murray We went on a nice run the other morning and because of that we had some solid planning. We planned our day we prayed for God to guide us where we needed to be. As we talked about the people we we felt to go to this specific street so we planned that in. At the end of our planning session we just felt good about our days plans. We set a goal to invite 1 person to be baptized everyday. So later on we went to that specific street and knock and knock and meet this guy named Jahliv. We invited him to be baptized right there on the doorstep. He accepted! It was awesome! We have met with him since and he seems solid. What's cooler is that just a couple doors down from him we found a Family from Peru. The mom answered and told us she had been looking for peace. Her son has autism and she wants to be the best she can to help him. Soon after the grandma came out and kept saying "últimos días!" And the mom said they're not Mormons mom and we were like "si si we are!" We later found out that the grandma had been baptized in Peru. We went over for a lesson and the whole family of 5 is interested. They came to church yesterday and loved it! It all starts in the morning! It was awesome!
"Planning is an eternal principle that has existed since before the world was formed. In the premortal existence, Heavenly Father introduced a plan that would bring about the immortality and eternal life of His children (see Moses 1:39)." - How do I fulfill my purpose? (PMG) I love you all! Elder Murray I only get 30 minutes to email today so it'll have to be semi short. Yesterday during the sacrament hymn (hymn 191) I had a spiritual experience as we sang
"Although in agony he hung, No murm’ring word escaped his tongue. His high commission to fulfill, He magnified his Father’s will." It has been a common theme throughout my mission to feel the spirit as we sing songs or as I read the scriptures that talk about submitting to God's will. As I sat there pondering I read Luke 2:42-43 and it says. Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. It was after Jesus determined to do His Fathers will and then... ...there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. I know that we have already covenanted to follow the Savior. It's not so much whether we have to choose now to follow him because we already said we would. At this point it's choosing whether or not to be men and women of integrity. After we determine to be men and women of integrity then he will strengthen us. I know it's all true! I love you all. Elder Murray |
