I'm trying to work on saying a lot more with a lot less words since we're supposed to teach short lessons and I'm presenting my area to my new companion again so here we go. I could sum up all of what you just said with a small principle I teach to a lot of investigators: Faith would not be a part of God's plan for us, as EVERYONE in the world knows is necessary, if it were possible for us to KNOW for sure everything that so many people so often want to learn. We CAN´T know it all... or we can't have faith.... so doubt your doubts and trust your faith and be okay with your personal progress from where you're at. The hardest part of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is enduring to the end. I truly do believe that many miracles have ceased because the world has become a world of knowledge and facts and is no longer a world of faith, trust, and wonder as it once was. You know I love you so darn much too, dad. I do the same thing going off on tangents a lil trying to express what my heart feels. Love reading your letters. Hope I can be more concise and efficient.
Trailblazing southern Peru and then the southeastern quarter of Bolivia wearing a blazer of sorts as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has its ups and downs, twists and turns. Follow me on this once in a life-time journey as I strive to spread the message of hope, truth, and peace in a land that I hope will become my second home.
