That's right. I had my new missionary badge for 3 weeks and I lost it again. Don't judge. It just means that I'm backing to wearing my homemade paper one. It's the best. I love it better anyway. The elders say 2 weeks again. But last time it took over a month to get a new one. So I'm not going to get my hopes up. Anyway this week I won 5 quetz by eating a bag of chips, we met Confucious, had lunch in a pent house (pic of the view from the table), played with shadows, played on some swings (we'll see if I can send a vid), and more than anything had a crap load of recorridos in the temple. It's been a fun week. I feel like it went by so fast. I don't know if it's the temple or if it's just because I'm old in the mission.
Anyway this week was filled with testimonies that God does give answers and guidance. I think I get to see it more than any other missionary as we invite the investigators to enter the temple lobby and pray. It's incredible how literally every single person that comes out of the temple comes out with answers and the love of their Heavenly Father. The thing is that everyone recieves an answer, you can see it in their eyes, but sometimes people refuse to accept it. They're still hard hearted. You also get people who know they've revceived an answer but then they don't have the faith to act on it. It's frustrating and a little saddening to know that these people could have so much more happiness and joy in their lives just by following the plan God has for them. Instead, for fault of faith and humility, they miss out on all that they could have. But alas asi es la vida. My gente please remember that his plan is a plan of happiness. Onr of our many purposes in life is to follow it and have that happiness in this life and forever. So look for it and have the faith to follow it. Anyway that's my spiritual thought of the week. I love you all! Be good!
Nos vemos!
