Press Forward

Wow can you believe it's March? I can't. It's so crazy!! Well this week was a lot better! Not that the other weeks were bad.....they just weren’t super great. I have really learned more about pressing forward. That we just have to keep going even when life throws some obstacles in your way. It's like Lot's wife. The only command was not to look back. But, for some reason, she looked back and turned into a pillar of salt. We probably won't turn into a pillar of salt if we figuratively "look back" but it will hold us back from our progression. We all have hard times. We all make mistakes that we never want to happen again. But we need to let the past go. Accept what has happened, what is currently happening and move forward. Keep your eyes focused on Christ. Keep your thoughts and actions focused in Him. He is the one that will help you most to grow. He will help you see your potential. I have a firm testimony is this. As is says in Moroni 10:32:  

"Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness; and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ, ye can in nowise deny the power of God"

That was my spiritual ah-ha moment. We have found more investigators this week. And more that accepted the invitation to be baptized with a specific date. Seriously guys, the Lord will not let us down. A new investigator went to church with us too! he even brought his friend! Talk about missionary work haha. It was stake conference and that was great. Some super awesome talks and the spirit is always so strong when we are gathered together to listen to the same message of the gospel. We are just working hard every day. We just want to do what the Lord expects of us :)

On the non-spiritual side, we left our zone during the week to eat out with members. We went to a buffet and the food was soooo good. Buffet of Mexican food of course but woooweee so delish. I also ate some really kind of gross tacos this week. Soy tacos. Yeah you don’t want to try them haha. But something new is always good! We helped make a cake for the mom of our recent convert Alex. that was fun. Service is always a fun mix up during the week :) Well that was my week! Nothing super exciting but yeah! Hope you all have a wonderful week! love you all!
