"What Lack I Yet?"

Oct 21, 2019

We had an awesome week! We did a ton of divisions with other areas and I forgot to bring my camera when I went to the other areas, sorry.

The pics I sent last week are kind of, mas o menos, what a villa looks like inside. That wasn’t a villa.

I had a cool experience this week with our Father in Heaven. I was thinking a lot about what more I need to do to achieve what the Lord expects of me, so I asked him in prayer, "What can I do better Father?" The answer came much faster than expected. I said I need to refer to my friends as friends instead of "investigators". It was pretty clear. I talked to my companion and we decided to repent together and strive to use the word "friends" instead of "investigators." Through small and simple things, great things are done. I think this effort to say "friends" and be even more obedient we will help many more people to come to the Lord! 

Our Father in Heaven wants to help us be better; He knows we will be more happy if we are more righteous, and so if we ask him, just like it says in that one conference talk and the scripture, "what lack i yet?," He will tell us, if we are willing to repent and act!! The commandments are the BEST!! I loved reading my scriptures this week. I started reading the story of Joseph Smith, just as our Prophet instructed us, and I felt the spirit super strong.

One of our friends said she wanted to be a nun and she hopes that will help her get an answer, but after our last lesson, I think she is doubting the idea. We are working with another girl as well, and we are always looking for more people!

Mom, thank you for sending me packages, I am very appreciated. (that doesn’t make sense does it) Sorry for complaining last week about that. I love you a ton. I took out some money to get the hat and a thermos for mate and other stuff. Love you fam!!! Thanks for the pics and videos!
