My birthday was this last week and I'm now 21.
Besides that, this week was loaded with small miracles and happenstance. We were able to meet with a couple of people we talk with on the streets and they're pretty cool. Also, met a bunch of exchange students as well. We pretty much met with everyone who want to meet with us.
Studied well this week and one thing that stuck out to me is a small part of Helaman. In Helaman 3:20, he says, "and he did do that which was right in the sight of God continually". As I pondered how I did missionary work, it kind of clicked. As we do what is right, things just tend to work out.
I'm not successful if I baptize 20 people or hold a leadership position. I'm successful as long as I have a desire to serve and do what is right. By doing what is right leads to miracles. And there were many this last week.
Ok, here's the rest cause it's a lot:
- Served many people. Some gardening work for one, some wood stacking for another.
- Discovered what really bummy travel felt like. Left at 7:20 to go to DC and got home at 21:50. Maybe won't be doing that anytime soon.
- Celebrated my birthday with the district. Good times and tried a Pätkis cake. Not too bad. Also got to see my old MTC companion Elder Larsen.
- Went to the Olavinlinna castle and it was epic.
Well, hope you all also had a miracle filled with and hope your summer end is good.
The work awaits,
