Running Like A Titan But I've Never Been To Tennessee
Sup!✌
What a week what a week folks! This past week was wetter
than the ocean I swear haha It rained just about everyday and when it wasn't
raining it was so humid that I was sweating so bad that I looked as if I had
been rained on haha, Gotta love the weather of the south.. Be grateful for dry
heat!
So saying good bye to Elder Hadley was pretty hard! We had a
lot of good and fun times together, but Im grateful for the time that I had to
spend with him and look forward to kicking it with him again in 12 weeks! I
know hes killing it up in Motown though, Hes a A1 missionary!
My new companion is Elder Moody! Hes from Stansbury, UT and
is a total stud!! He has been on his mission for 9 months and is a phenomenal
missionary. Hes a great example of love and trust in the Lord. I told him that
he was sent here to keep me focused and help me finish strong haha, we are
going to have a lot of fun together I can already tell :)
Sooo not too much happened this past week to be honest with
you! We had transfers and just walked around seeing people and saying good bye
to them for Elder Hadley. Larry came to church this week and met with bishop
Hansen so hopefully something goes good there. Shaun is still solid as a brick
house haha. Hes a good kid.
For my Spiritual Thought this week I want to share a
scripture from the Bible!
Mark 5: 25-34
25 And a certain woman, which had an issue of
blood twelve years,
26 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,
27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment .
28 For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.
29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.
30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?
31 And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
32 And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.
33 But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.
34 And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace , and be whole of thy plague.

One of the members in our ward spoke on Jesus Christ in church
yesterday and how he can heal us and make our lives better. Through out his
talk he brought up a bunch of different scripture passages that talked about
how he healed and brought happiness into peoples lives. This was the one that
stood out the most to me! I love the principle that is in this passage. Had
this lady not acted on her faith to REACH to touch the clothes of the Savior
she would have never been healed. It reminded me that faith can only be
strengthened when acted upon. and when we act upon our faith we are blessed!
There are many things that we can put our faith in the Savior to bless us with
but one that I have been focusing on a lot lately is finding out own personal
happiness. Remember that as we act out in faith the Lord will bless us which
will in turn give us blessings that will change our life. Don't focus on the
things you cant control, Instead focus on the now and let the lord take care of
the rest! I love you all and hope you have a good week!!
