09/12/09


Gym time was awesome. I got a great work out and lifted weights. Also, personal study was awesome. I just wanted to feel comforted and more confident because my first teaching experience today with an "investigator" did not go well at all. I asked for help in a prayer. Prayer is amazing! Seriously...answer to all of life's struggles right there! Pray! It was just about my mission. I read Doctrine and Covenants 24-31. It was just very comforting. Also, we listened to Elder Jeffrey R. Holland's conference talk, a Miracle of a Mission. It was very eye opening.

Tonight, we got to go outside during class and stand on a bench and teach about the Restoration. It was fun and nerve wracking at first, but a good experience. We've also been discussing a lot about our special authority from God. It's very humbling to have that power. I'm tired and drained, but it's great. I love the sisters and I love the work, and thank goodness I am here. It's the best gift a 22 year old could have and the best thing I will have done in my life.
