This week has past faster than I can remember. On
Saturday, I wasn't feeling so well. Even though I didn't want to miss class,
I slept for a couple of hours and my body was able to heal faster. What a miracle!
A huge group of Korean missionaries left this week, and now the MTC feels so
empty. The people here are wonderful, and have such amazing testimonies.
On Sunday night, our branch was one of three that they had
watch a new video. It was a fireside given by Elder Bednar at the MTC in 2009.
It was amazing! Elder Bednar spoke on how we sometimes question whether
something is a spiritual prompting or just us. His advice was don't worry
about. Act on it.
Last night, we learned limits and how through God there are
no limits. Jacob 4:6 explains this. I learned that as long as we have faith,
God will be able to help us do all things. My teacher told us (mostly in
Korean) that here at the MTC the only limit we have in learning Korean is
ourselves. There is nothing stopping us here. This made me realize that I'm
stopping myself from learning Korean. I haven't been learning it as fast and as
well as I should here. This made me realize the only thing stopping me is me. We read this talk called the fourth missionary this week and
it explained how the one thing you can give to God that he doesn't already have
is your will, and I have been holding mine back. I haven't been giving my all
because I'm afraid of failing. I guess that is what failing is for. It is
there to humble and teach us. I was in the temple and I went with this question
in mind. Ether 12:27, answered my prayer. This week my goal is to completely
devote my heart and will to God.
I know we have a Heavenly Father who loves us beyond comprehension. I know I can be with him again through the doctrine of Christ (2 Nephi
31). I know this gospel is the gospel of Jesus Christ and I'm grateful for
the opportunity to share it.
