Hola Familia!!!!
This week was awesome!!! Just like every week haha. Some news before I forget, I won`t be writing
until next Tuesday because we have transfers this week. We will see if I
am still in Esperanza or not! haha So that will be exciting!
This week we had quite a bit of
success. We have visited a lot of new people! We will see if they
turn into investigators. This week Elder Clayton and I have really pushed
to encourage people to pray. Lots of people don`t like to pray. I
have been thinking and I have come up with some reasons why people don´t. 1.
The adversary is constantly attacking people so that they don`t want to pray, obviously.
2. People think it´s weird. If they don´t have faith in God, I can see
why praying would be weird. But big news for all the unbelievers out
there. GOD LIVES! 3. People are afraid of the answer they will
receive. And that is why the prophets in the Scriptures constantly say
that we have to pray with real intent. With real intent, faith, and
humility to pray, we can receive personal revelation! So we just have to
overcome all of these obstacles and pray! We talked with a ton of people
this week and persisted until they prayed. I cannot explain how humbling
it is to hear people pray for the first time. It is probably my favorite
thing in the mission. The thanks they give to God for the simplest things
is a great example for me. I try to give thanks every night for the little
things from the day. And HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! May we all
take a little time to personally pray to Heavenly Father on Thanksgiving,
offering nothing but our gratitude! This is my challenge for all of you this
week! I know that prayer changes lives, because it has changed my
life. Through prayer I have come to know that this church is true.
Through prayer I have been moved to serve a mission. Through Prayer I
have been moved to repent, and receive forgiveness from my almighty God.
Though prayer I feel my Heavenly Father´s comfort and love. Have a great
week everyone!! Love you all! Happy Thanksgiving.
Un abrazo,
Elder Maynard
