Last Transfer

Well everyone another week has passed away. With that I will be going into the last transfer of my mission! We haven't heard if we are moving or not, we find out tomorrow night. It is just so crazy that time is going by so fast. I feel as if I was just at 18 months like 2 weeks ago. I am making the most out of what time I have though! 

 

This week was fun. Went on exchanges with some of the bike elders in the zone. Elder Silver finally let me take a turn there haha. I actually had a pretty good time. The area wasn't completely made out of hills like the first area I went on exchanges on a bike. But I was with Elder Spor is his name, I had a good time with him he is a hard worker.  

 

We met a lot of nice people who weren't all that interested but still fun to talk with them. It was hot which is a nice change for the rain and cold wind that will be here in 2 months haha. I ate at Killer burger this week I think it may be a Oregon thing but that's probably wrong.  But if you go get the peanut butter pickle bacon burger it is awesome! 

 

The spiritual thought for the week comes from Helaman 5:12 

 

"And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall."

 

How very profound is the first few words. "Remember Remember" each of us have had experiences in which God has been able to speak to us. But for me it is so easy to forget those and want to ask for more. But we need to remember those things so we won't fall when opposition comes. We can be strong with Christ and Satan will have no power over us. 

 

I know these principles are true, the blessing have been magnified in my life and in yours! Seek to remember the spiritual experiences you have or even remember the simple truths that you know. Most importantly remember that Christ lives!
