Hey everyone, still working on wrapping up the college stuff
so this will be shorter, so this week we worked hard and saw miracles, working
with active members who were beginning to lose their vision or inactives who
have lost their way, multiple people opened up to us that we would have never
thought would, people who were claimed by others to never want to see the
missionaries, let alone talk to them. It gives me hope and faith that I know
that if we try our best here Elder Cook and I can feel successful and make
things happen, even if that means that our work down the road will make a huge
difference. When things go rough and it seems that we just can never hit gold
no matter how hard we search, it's important to keep in mind the future and the
eternal perspective. Many people in the book of Mormon saw little to no
success, but they were successful, what a principle, only in the Gospel can one
really make it or break invisibly. It doesn't matter if we had tons of baptisms
or none at all as long as we go down fighting, as long as we finish strong and
keep the faith. If we work hard and try our best then we really don't have
anything to worry about. We are hoping and praying every day that our work will
bear some fruit that we can see with our own eyes, but if not, we will carry on
and keep a smile on our faces. I love you guys, have a great week and stay
safe, and always remember to keep the eternal perspective in mind as we all
constantly have to remind ourselves of these principles and teachings.
-Elder Skene
