ive continued my successs with learning and thriving here but its nothing compared to what ill face in 5 days or so !
ill share a quick stroy with you!
Soo back in Wyoming as the pioneers were in their last leg and literally on their last legs trying to reach zion they came to a river wich had jus started melting and the ice was broken up so the frigid waters were exposed. with absolutley no way to get over the river the men and women even children fell to the cold icy ground crying, weeping, in such deep sorrow knowing that if they crossed they would surely die. to their suprise Three 18 year old Boys part of a rescue party had come early! They three boys carried every single mother, child, father through the frigid water, in which hypothermia would defienitly take hold. upon getting everyone across safely you could imagine the state of the young men! shortly thereafter all they boys had passed away due to their immense act of service but really it was their FAITH.
they had the faith in their Father in heaven that was soo immense and unfathomable i can honestky say i dont know if i would be able to excercise it the way they did. all of they people they carried made it to Zion safely. if it wasnt for their faith and them laying down their lives for they people all the lives would have been lost!
what faith i hope to possess!
how great were they missionaries!
i love this story because after my experience with that missionary who left i couldnt have felt more steadfast and selfess, and unselfishly committed to staying here and finishing the work God called me to do!
i can only hope to posess that amount ofim doing fine and just not thinking about myself.. thats the essence of missionary work!
i hope i shared with you the story about jesus fasting and being unselfish if i diidnt lemme know an ill write yeh!
but thats what im doing jus being unselfish! love you loads faith that they boys had and even our Saviour had in us that we would one day realize his sacrifice!
Love ya loads!
