In General Conference I learned how much Christlike love has the power to change the world for the better. When we love our fellow man with the purest love we can, we love God the most we can. When we love God the most we can, we love our fellow man the most we can. Pure love of God & others are inseparably connected. Christ gave us the example, that which we have seen him do, we get to do also.
Watching it made me reflect on times I have felt the spirit strongly, I felt my faith grow stronger as I remembered & felt feelings of peace and joy.
We got to watch general conference with members, investigators, nonmembers, and less actives (miracles!). Reflecting on the impressions with everyone was an incredible experience for me; I learned so much more. Serving others is when we are most happy, and we see most clearly when we are looking to Heavenly Father.
Our area is improving! When we "whitewash" that means that we are 2 new missionaries in the area, and none of the previous missionaries stayed. The work is a little slow; we are in quite an affluent area filled with rocket scientists, cancer surgeons, etc. (no joke). And the boundaries are 2 neighborhoods... maybe half a square mile? As we filled out the records for our ward mission leaders this week, I realized just how many miracles have been happening! We have been able to meet with nonmembers 3 times in the Miramar ward! (practically unheard of in this area!!--although in my 1st area that took an hour or 2). Getting to know the members has been an uplifting experience, they are incredible.
The Highgroves YSA ward had some miracles with less actives this past week too! And someone we are teaching is excited to be interviewed for baptism on Tuesday--he loved General Conference and felt inspired to "follow the prophet".
I know that our Savior lives, and he laid down his life for us. He did for us what we could not do for ourselves. Remember him in all that you do, and you will find greater feelings of happiness and joy.
Endure to the end & enjoy the journey :)
Remember who you are!
