TRANSFERR WEEEK!!

Well this week is AWESOME! And I got to learn a lot about how I can do better to teach others, guide them and love them. I am soo glad and thankful for the many blessings The Lord gave to all of us

Well today have a new comp ELDER DUBRUEIL, he is Awesome and it's his first week too We were able to meet with soo many people and even had the Mid Autumn Festival activity for the chinese branch. I love my area❤️

Now it's sad though, cause I will be leaving my baby area and head to a new place down in Ogden. However I'll be comp with an Asian Elder, Elder Teng and things are going to be exciting from there. I will miss my trainer a lot, however I want to cherish each and every single moment of my mission service time as well. I want to do all I can and try my very best as well, and I found a line between diligence and charity. I love that. ❤️

Here are some things that I learned during the week.

Adaptability 

When Elder Dubreuil came in the field, it was a Monday night after our preparation time as we were about to knock on a contact door. Our AP's called Elder Fleshman and told him. Do you think you can train another missionary, he is Elder Dutrey (He pronounced it incorrectly) And my trainer was left dumbfounded.  Like WOW what just happened . Best part his single line posterity line is branching and there is a probability that my trainer might dominate teh chinese posterity line

Nonetheless as Elder Dubreuil came, we started to be a bit wonky with our lesson. However, gradually I found several strengths that this new Elder has and gradually we morph our lesson skills together as one I was able to gain new knowledge and insights to improve on myself. I am grateful for all the blessing and humility I gained to improve each day.

Over all I think having a new comp like being in a new area with a new comp and not a single person I know is going to be tough. But I want to get to know my new comp on my own. Gott improve on my communication skill, but more than that showing charity to him and just getting to know him in his heart and background. And yeah if ya'll got some tips to get to know someone, or certain question that would help I would love to learn some!!

Learning How To Learn

Well often as I ponder about how I learn in life. I always thought of comments to be a hard pill to swallow. Like it's just hard to hear, discouraging, make one feel pointless and just sorrowful. And that's how I've been taking comments every moment in my mission. I took many comment really hard to myself and wanted to improve much better than th previous lesson, door knocking and contacting. Like it just hits me like a truck as I hear the critical comments and being rejected.

Something I learned was humility truly is a crucial part in our learning progress. It makes the advises, weaknesses point out and goals to set much more easier. Nonetheless it's so true in Ether 12:27. And I have come to see how the grace of the Lord is there to help us and guide us in improving ourselves each day. I am SOO GRATEFULL FOR THAT EXPERIENCE. I realised that with humility and meekness, learning opportunities become much more fun, the gradual slope of achievements becomes much more appreciated, lastly the love that the Savior has for me becomes ever more visible in life.

I came to realise humility leads us to trust that Heavenly Father is there to help us, with confidence. And that the love and support we all have is always beyond our imagination. Whether it be in this side or the other side of the veil. You are loved and appreciated with each mountain we climb. The Lord will guide you as you go through a learning process, with the Holy Ghost's guidance learning becomes quicker, changes becomes more welcoming and understanding becomes more comforting. I love that soo much❤️

Preparation 

A talk that I had to give yesterday was...

"By faith, all things are fulfilled through Christ"

As I was preparing that talk, I learned about how we can prepare ourselves and with faith let all things be fulfilled after all out efforts. After all that we can do, it's to trust in the Lord. like

Enos: That he had to wrestle in spirit, to increase and strengthen his faith as his soul was hungry. Which as he added the effort and wrestled all night to strengthen his faith. He was made whole, by his faith and is forgiven.

Alma and Amulek: As they were thrown in prison and were abused by the high priest and high authorities. They waited in patients. To actively wait and do all they can to allow the Lord to deliver them out of their bondage. Through increasing faith, suffering long with the Lord's help and obedient in the Lord's prompting. And eventually they are delivered.

Nephi and his people: IN 2 Nephi 25 it talks about how Nephi and his people obeyed the law of Moses with so much obedience, with soo much exactness. The law is fulfilled and made dead to them. And even so they are still saved by the Savior's grace. More than that but by their faith in Christ they were made alive, physically and spiritually ✨️.

By Wrestle (Effort), Long-suffering (Patience) and Exactness (Obedience). We make it possible for us to prepare with all our effort having the Lord's help. We can also leave the rest of our short-comings and uncontrollable factors to the Lord to help us by our faith.

Likewise in our lives we can do the same thing as well. To prepare ourselves and overcome the challenges we face from our effort and the Lord's help. Trust Him✨️

Also one more thought, my comp mentioned this.

"You know we can be so much more quicker to be an equal with the many prophets in the scripture. Like we have so much more spiritual resources than the past, as well as how fast we can find the resources we need with just a few taps on the phone. So use your resources wisely."

So we can do so much more better right now. Nonetheless also remember to take a rest.

Purpose 

As we went door contacting I realised how much I could do so much better especially with contacting people. Our purpose is to Bring others to COME UNTO CHRIST. Not getting to know them, not serving them but to bring these people to come unto Christ. That's our ultimate goal. And I am trying and learning how to center everything I do to help others to Learn about Jesus Christ.

So I am still learning and to help others to Come unto Christ with each interaction I have with every child of God.

Conclusion

It's soo fun with learning the gospel and even being a missionary not a single regret. I know God loves all of us and wants to help us even more in our lives. I'm grateful for his love and support. Alright Gotta goo BYEEEE
