Kia Ora Whanau!!
The church is true.
For several weeks now, I've
been feeling like something is missing from my mission experience. I've felt
that It wasn't quite everything it should be. Now don't get me wrong, I love my
mission, there was just a nagging in the back of my head that said something
was wrong. I started to pray about it and couldn't find anything for a week or
two so I decided to fast for help.
At the close of my fast, I
prayed and could faintly hear/feel the word Charity. I was pretty sure that's
what I was supposed to work on, but I was a little unsure. The next day, I was
prompted to read "A Summer with Great-Aunt Rose." It's been one of my
favorite talks for a while. As I read, Rose talks about how she turned her life
around by discovering faith, hope, and charity. As I read, I couldn't help but
feel overwhelmed with the hope that came flooding into my outlook on my life
and the mission. It seemed like the Lord was "holding my right hand"
and guiding me on my path. I've started to make this a focus of my prayers and
study and it's made the biggest difference in the world.
I know Heavenly Father
answers our prayers. I know He loves us.
I love you all!
Love,
Elder Benjamin
