Hey yall,
Yesterday we had a 7 hour meeting in Gainesville with half the mission to hear from Elder Golden of the First Quorum of the Seventy. What a spiritual and knowledgeable man. He talked for 5 hours straight without any notes, and kept things lively the entire time. No one was falling asleep. Amazing! One of my favorite quotes he said was,"Faith is nothing more than Personal Righteousness. Without the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and its gospel, there wouldn't be a single person on the face of the earth with the sufficient faith in order to walk back into the presence of our Heavenly Father." Ponder and pray about that one for awhile...
My love for the Book of Mormon has increased ten fold as I have been studying it each morning and night. I just can't seem to put it down!
The work has seemed to slow down this past week since school has started. We
were unable to meet with a lot of people as frequent as we use to. All our investigators seem to be so busy that they can only meet with us once a week or so which is definitely not enough!
The Lord is still working his miracles though and preparing the hearts of the people to receive the fullness of His Gospel. I bare witness that God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ live, Their love and patience with us is immeasurable, and they are just waiting for us to more fully welcome them into our lives so they may bless us. The gospel is true and the Book is Blue. May God bless ya'll individually this next week.
Love, Elder Greenlaw
