July 4th, 2016

 
Happy 4th of July! I hope that you all had wonderful BBQ and firework displays, I was so much fun here in Colorado!
This past week was fantastic! We have been going out with a lot of the Young men who are leaving on missions in the next couple of weeks we have said good bye to a few of them so far I wish the best to them all they are going to be fantastic Elders of the Lord.
To be completely honest, I am pulling a blank on this past week. The past like 9months are all running together and I am not sure what week I have done what. So I will talk about this past P-day because it was a really fun P-day.
First off we went to this really beautiful hike to a water fall, it is called Zepata falls, we hiked up into the cave where the water fall is and we took a pretty sweet district picture! And I was able to set up my hammock for the first time in about 4 months! So it was already a really fun day! After that we went to the Great sand dunes and we went sand boarding for like 3 hours I was not very good but I only crashed like twice, it was so much fun! Then last night we were able to watch the Fireworks and it was a pretty good show!
I was reading through this past conference and Elder Hollands talk stood out to me again, and I was thinking about what "tomorrow" brings, it can be really scary we really do not have any solid evidence of "tomorrow" however we hope that it will come and that it will be better than today. That got me thinking about what control we have over tomorrow, I think that we have more than we realize. We cannot control what happens to us but we can control where we go and what we do when we get there. Tomorrow will come even if we don't want it to. We will always be able to control if we will be happy with tomorrow though.
I hope that we can all choose to have a happy tomorrow even if unhappy things happen.
I love you all and I know that God loves you and will look out for you, Have a wonderful today and a happy tomorrow,
Elder Stewart
