2011-12-03 - Letter 12 03 2011
12/3/2011 Crazy times. I guess it is what goes on around here. How is times going with you? I was praying for some action with our stake president on this calling missionary to serve in the center. I probably emailed him like 5 or 6 times or more. I saw him in the hall today and I ask him if he had received my emails. He told me he had but he is not very good about returning them. He told me that he has a meeting with all the relief society presidencies in the stake today at noon and wondered if we could come and give a presentation about do missionary work in the SRE. ( Servicio recursos de empleo ). Employment center. We said sure we have time. Everything starts later than they say. We gave our spill and 13 people signed up to help in the center. I was shocked. Going from cero to 13 in one meeting was just is to good to true. We will be able to have a missionary and maybe some volunteers to help. I said a little prayer and thanked my Heavenly Father for the blessing and the answer to my prayer. The Stake President was surprise how many were very interested in helping out. We go through moments of despair and this happens. The Lord knows our heart and soul. We sometimes have to make sure our heart is in the right place. It is in our chest just below our head which makes all the decision of our life. Sometimes we need to look down and ask our heart what we should do. If our heart tells us not to then we need to lessen because our heart comes from our parents and it is not easy dissuaded like our head is. My dad’s heart was the greatest thing about him. He would do anything for any one if he could. Oh how I can just be like my dad. I pray he is proud of what I do and how I lead my life. Yesterday I got a phone call. The person said I am working. I said so who is this. She said Livis. Let me tell you about Hermana Livis. We met her about the first or second month when we got here. She is return mission and has been looking for work all this time. She has volunteer in the center mean while looking work almost every day. She been on many interviews and always tells them that she will not work on Sunday. I am so happy for her that she finally got a job and a good at that. She works for a Pharmacy. We usually don’t hear from people who get jobs but this one called us because we have developed a person relationship with her. I think it how it may sound, oh she has a job but after 9 month of looking she is finally working. I look how I just to think about the churches employment department and I would not give it two cents of my time. Now the Lord must know that and so he stuck me here to change my mind. Yes my mind has been changed and I feel we need to look at all avenues in looking for a job. I am not an expert but I learned a lot about jobs and how to find them by sharing what you know helps others. Knowledge means nothing unless you use that knowledge. I have been thinking about all the knowledge I have learned about business and motivation and what it takes to start a business and I finally have been convinced to use what I know here. How I will do such a thing I don’t know but I need to do it. Whatever we are blessed with can help others only if we will put what we know into action. I have always wondered about what this life is all about. I know it is to learn and prepare ourselves for when we die. But is also to help others with the talents we have. Are you using your talents to help others grow? Setting an example and being an example are two things that just don’t go together. One is of pride and the other is a result of what we want to become. It is a constant battle on who is going to win that struggle of who you become. It talks about that in the scriptures and the nature man is an enemy to God and we fight that every day of our lives. Most times we can win that battler but guess what it starts again in our life with the constant temptation of sin is okay and you deserve this. Restraining ourselves from thinking about things that are bad is a constant struggle for me. I don’t know how others deal with it but I just try to read more scriptures and change my thoughts. It is my fault that I have those thoughts because I choose early in my life to participate in such evil practices. I choose now not to participate but those thought still come to me. Going on my second mission I felt may give me the blessing of pure thoughts but I still struggle with those thoughts that tend to drag me down and I just keep going in the direction the lord wants me to go. It I feel he is not leading me I go where I feel he wants me to go and along the way he sometimes guides me. Gives me signs and blessing to know I am on the right tract. Never give in to Satin’s wishes or temptations. Know where freedom is and it is following the Savior. Sorry this is long. Lf you alwys dad
