Hello Everyone again this week! happy 5 de mayo!
How are we all doing?
I can't wait to talk to you guys, it always leaves me with the best feeling:)
This
week has been pretty crazy, we were in Puebla a whole lot. We had
interviews with president reeves, a leadership traing meeting, and a
leadership council at presidents house on friday.
But, even though we didnt have much happen in the area
because we were gone, we had a baptism yeserday, which was great:) A man
named victor who we've been teaching for a little over a month. He was
very happy, and his son came and wants to listen to us now, so great!
I had a great experience with my fast yesterday, and I'd like
to share it with you guys. I've had a lot of things on my mind lately,
things that have worried me and have really kind of distracted me from
being 100% immersed in the work this week. When I started me fast on
saturday afternoon I decided to fast that those worries would be taken
away. Well it ended up turning out that my fast coundnt be broken until
later in the evening last night, becaquse of the baptism. I ended up
fasting for about 26 or 27 hours. (If you dont know fasting is going
without food or water, and its purpose is to help us overcome the
physical, and put our trust in the spiritual). Well I was hurting quite a
bit yesterday, but i pushed through. I could literally feel the weight
being lifted off my shoulders and chest. All my worries that were there
saturday, were gone.
I know that God loves us. I know that he hears our prayers,
espescially when they are accompanied by a fast. I would invite you to,
if you are going yhrough a tough time or feel confused , alone,
whatever, I would invite you to fast. It truly has power.
I love yoy guys.
Talk to you soon
Elder Wilson
