Week 58 The Lord Loves Effort

Hi again! 

If I haven't already shared, our mission has split again. We now are the Cache Valley North or South Service Missionaries. I'm part of South along with 11 other missionaries. 

A little from Come, Follow Me towards the end, "Even though they had repented of their sins, Alma and his people still found themselves in bondage. Their experience shows that trusting the Lord and living our covenants doesn't always prevent difficulties, but it does help us overcome them." 

This week I worked on patience in Preach My Gospel (Christ's attributes). This week I keep thinking about how in General Conference the prophet told the kids The Lord Loves Effort! I noticed as I was more patient with my family in different things, I felt more of His love. As I got frustrated with a puzzle I'm working on, I kept thinking the Lord loves effort, so as I really tried to be patient and look closer for them I found the pieces I was looking for. I'm thankful for His help throughout the week of trying to be better with patience and coming closer to Him. 

Scripture thought: 

Alma 32:37 And behold, as the tree beginneth to grow, ye will say: Let us nourish it with great care, that it may get root, that it may grow up, and bring forth fruit unto us. And now behold, if ye nourish it with much care it will get root, and grow up, and bring forth fruit. 38 But if ye neglect the tree, and take no thought for its nourishment, behold it will not get any root; and when the heat of the sun cometh and scorcheth it, because it hath no root it withers away, and ye pluck it up and cast it out.


Hope you all have a good week!
