Hello everyone!!
This week
was a great week!! We focused a lot on keeping the commandments and how
it blesses our lives.
This week had me thinking a lot, about the
commandments and about how in my house, I kindaaa kept them but not
exactly. Something that I learned this week, if we want all the
blessings from the Lord we need to keep His commandments, with all our
hearts.
The commandments may seem simple and may seem like a little
thing to not keep them exactly but I know with all my heart that when we
give all of our effort to keep His commandments, to keep the Sabbath
day holy, to love our neighbor, to not lie, to pray everyday, to read
the scriptures, to do the little things, the Lord blesses us and the sacrifice of Jesus makes up for the imperfections that we have.
An
example are some of the members here in Yukyry, in their form of keeping
the Sabbath day holy. They go to church and then go home and eat lunch
all together as a family, then they go out as a family, sometimes just
as a couple and start visiting the members that couldn't make it to
church.
I have seen the blessings that this service brings to their
lives as they keep the Sabbath day holy and truly dedicate it as a day
to the Lord.
I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have
to be here on my mission, for the lessons I am learning and for the
chances that I have to make changes in my life.
I am grateful for all
of you for your love and your support, I know that I have not always
been the best example and a lot of the time I've been the opposite of a
good example and I would like to apologize for that. But I am so
grateful that the Lord brought me here to Paraguay, to save me and to
change me. I hope to be a better example and I hope that you can all
forgive me for my past mistakes.
I hope you all have a great week! Don't forget to do the little things.
