It has been a good week here in Del Norte Colorado! The
people here are very kind and even if they aren't interested they will listen
to us for at least a little bit.
This Friday will be my one month date! It doesn't feel like
that much time has passed at all. Here are some of the thing I have learned
this past month:
This is not my mission but our Father in heavens, as He said
"this is my work and my Glory to bring to pass the immortality and eternal
life of man" Moses 1:37
I was not sent here to Colorado because of anything I can do
but because this is where the Lord knows I will grow the most.
Missionary work is not easy. However it will make the
difference of an eternity of Joy.
The harder the task the more reward you will be given.
I am so grateful for the gift that we have to be guided by
living Prophets and apostles and that we hear directly from them every six
months! Each of those men were not called by men but by a living all-knowing
Father in Heaven who loves us and wants the best for us. As we listen and heed
the council that they give to us we will be protected from the storms of sin
that rage on everyday trying to weaken us.
The branch I am working in is great! The members are very
kind and willing to work with us. I know that this is the Lords work and that I
am only here to be a tool in his hand.
I found a tea pot last week and have made hot coco pretty
much every day. I always thought that I could handle the cold but turns out I
am not quite used to it just yet.
The Lord has a plan for each of us and he knows out limits
He will push us only when we are willing to let him push.
I got to play with some little baby kittens this week!! It
was great they are pretty much just balls of hair. And they aren't cats yet so
that was even better! The more I spend time here in Colorado the more I see
that I was placed here for a reason. I know that as we seek to find what the
Lord has planned for us the happier we will become.
Love you all,
Elder Stewart
