Week #85

uhhhh yea another week

soooo i kind of forgot everything i did this week. all i remember is going to cape for MLC and seeing elder nelson with his long hair made my whole week hahah love that guy.

we finally had ward council!! first time since ive been here. meetings are soo soo important in the church, when they dont happen, the work is frustrated and it becomes the missionaries and the members. when in fact we are a team and should be one!! so it was great to work with branch this week to get some WORK GRINDING!!! 

The apostle paul, when teaching the people in greece at Athens, says something that really struck me, "for as i passed by and beheld your devotions, i found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare i unto you." acts 17:23

the athenains had soooo many god soo many that they mad an alter to a god that incase they forgot a god they would just say that he was part of the unknown god. paul reconized that these people were very religious or "careful in divine things" but they had been led to not know the one and only true living god. that is the one paul wish to speak of. to teach them the simplicity of worshiping the true god. 

let us not be distracted by things of the world or anything that might cause us to forget our father in heaven, for he is nott unknown to those who seek him. for he is waiting for us to reach out to come and know him and his son. remember that god has sent sooo many people before us so that no matter where we are in our lives he is there, weather it be a poster about jesus healing church or a Jehovah witness knocking on your door. all are alike unto god and all things point to him, the Father of All, so listen.

if you need me ill be here lol
