AMAZINGNESS

Another wonderful week here in Kearney Nebraska!!! Sometimes I feel as if I cannot fit all the amazingness of my mission into one email, but I will try and convey the lessons I learned and miracles I saw this week. First off, we had zone conference where we were trained by our mission president. Let me just say...sooooo gooood!! He trained us about the different levels of conversion. Level 1:our head, meaning the facts memorized information, and reason. Level 2: which is expressed through our heart, feelings, our desires, and an attitude of humility. Then Level 3:  which is our soul, through our experiences, practice and it is an act of becoming. The only way we can know of the truthfulness of any aspect of the gospel is allowing it to move from our heads to our hearts, which cause us to act and then moves this action of faith into our souls. How we can know if the gospel is indeed embedded into our souls, can be found in Mosiah 5:2.  As we allow the gospel of Jesus Christ to enter into our souls, our hearts will change and we will be able to exclaim as did the people of King Benjamin,  "Yea, we believe all the words which thou hast spoken unto us; and also, we know of their surety and truth, because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent, which has wrought mighty change in us, or in our hearts, that we have no more disposition to do evilbut to do good continually."
     May we also remember that conversion is a life long process that involves work, our whole" heart, might, mind, and strength" to be exact. Though it will not be easy let us all remember the words of Elder Holland from this past conference address, "Keep loving. Keep trying. Keep trusting. Keep believing. Keep growing. Heaven is cheering you on today, tomorrow, and forever.'' Never give up for we know we are on the winning team and as we rely on our Savior and emulate his teachings, we will have the ability to accomplish anything!
