Hola, this week our water heater went out! The past few days we have been taking ice cold showers. It's a reminder of how blessed we are to have hot water.
On Friday, we had a general authority named Jose Alonso come and speak to us. He was really good, I felt like the words he was speaking were directed towards me. He spoke about how we know if we are doing enough as a missionary. That is something I needed to hear.
Saturday, we volunteered at a golf charity event. We watched to see if people hit a hole in one, because if they hit one they got $10,000. No one got close though. We got free tee shirts and had a couple good conversations about Jesus Christ with others.
Today I hit 6 month to sexy, haha. I only have 6 months left which is crazy. As I have been on my mission especially now, I relieve how much missions can change us if we let it. I know missionaries that can't let go of things from the "world". Now they can still grow, however it's not as much as it could be if they sacrificed more. Here is a thought I had the other day:
"Sunday (5/1/22): The Atonement of Jesus Christ will change lives. His great sacrifice is infinite to all those who have a broken heart and a true desire to change. His grace changes us as we lean on Him; it helps us become like HIM! We can lean on Him through reading the scriptures, praying, going to church--especially partaking of sacred ordinances, and lastly going to the temple. The temple blessings endow us with power beyond our own. It has the power to change our characters."
Let the Atonement of Jesus Christ change your life. Sacrifice things to be molded to what the Lord wants you to be! Don't be afraid to do so, exercise your faith in Him. Believe he can change you and make your weaknesses become strengths.
Love y'all!
Elder Larsen
