Hey mom and dad,
Life is good. Life should always be good.
Here in our missoin we are really trying to focus on revelation and working through revelation and the spirit. This last Tuesday we had a way cool experience. during planning. The next day was Wednesday. We were having district meeting so we would only have 3 hours do work in our area. Me and my comp asked the Lord where we should go. My comp felt like we should go housing at an apratment. Housing at nights in Japan isnt very good normaly but I said ok. but then the question was where to go. I then thought that the apartment should be brown, but there are a lot of brown apartmetns. Even our apartment is brown. Then my comp said that we should go to a town where we had been a week earlier. Once he said that I remembered a brown apartment that I had wanted to go to earlier but we hadnt had time. I felt like this was were we were supposed to go. So we got back from district meeting and we made our way to that apartment. About 5 doors into it we came to door that was open. I called inside and someone answered back so I started my contact. Then this older lady came out and said she was a member of our church! what! I had no idea that a less active member lived there. It surprised me. We talked to here and she told us about some health problems she has so coming to chruch is difficult but she said that we could come by next week.
I thank the Lord for this experiece. Everyone says that the Lord answers prayers and that we can get revelation but actually experiencing it solidifies that testimony. This work is the Lords work. d&c 50*:17-18 says that the only way to do the Lords work is by the spirit. I know this to be true. I remember the feeling I felt during that Tuesday night planning session. Before that I had a special training. I almost learned nothing from the training because I was thinking about so many things and the spirit was trying to tell me so many things. I was on a spiritual high and because I was on a spiritual high we had the spirit with us when we were planning and through that we were able to receive revelation on where to go.
This chruch is true. Some people say the mission is a duty but really it should be something that people are dying to do. There is nothing greater a 19 year old boy can do to strengthen his testimony and learn how to grow up. It should not be a `have to` it should be a `get to`
I love you family. You are the best. I am excited to see you all. have a good week.
love
