Drew mail 3-15-2021: "Seguir Adelante"


 

Hi everyone! How are you doing? I hope everything is going well! I want you to know I love you so much and am praying for you! I know Heavenly Father loves you perfectly and is watching over you! I can testify that He lives and loves all of His children and wants the best for them! I'm so grateful for the great experiences, miracles, tender mercies, answers to prayers and everything that comes from God.

Throughout the week we visited with quite a few different people working to help build them up and strengthen their faith and it was a great experience! We were also able to have an activity with the stake where we did a "face to face" or question and answer activity with specifically the youth throughout the stake, but there were more adults than youth which is fine haha! 😅

One of the neat things I've been focusing on throughout the week is becoming just a little firmer in my faith each day and study I have of the scriptures. I know God answers prayers and helps us keep moving forward throughout all that is going on! It's been an incredible experience here so far with Elder Lui and I've loved the great experiences I've had as a missionary. One of the things my mission president commented to me in my interview with him on Tuesday was that we're here to practice! We've got to keep working on improving and not get caught up on the mistakes or struggles we have but keep looking for the good and move forward with faith and hope and love! I know it can be hard sometimes, but I love that because of Jesus Christ we can truthfully overcome whatever struggle and problem we have and be healed and strengthened completely by Him. I know He loves us perfectly and knows us perfectly! He wants to help and can if we choose to love and follow Him. So just keep trying one step at a time and remember you're just practicing! I've got a great talk in mind by Brad Wilcox called "His grace is sufficient" and I invite you to listen to it then think about what you can do to more fully love and follow the Savior in your life! If you give all you've got, i promise that God will work miracles in you, for you, and with you to bless and help others! Have a great week, I love you all!! 😊
