Wow another week went by! TIME FLEW BY!!! There were many miracles this week and it is just amazing to see the experiences that come each week that continue to grow my testimony and make me so grateful for this Gospel in my life and how my life isn’t the same without it! Also I am so grateful for my family especially my parents they are literally my best friends and their support is amazing! And our Heavenly Father hears and answers our prayers! It may not be by the way we expect but He is always there listening and wanting to bless us! Don’t let go of Him in hard times and when you feel He’s not there for you because in those times you should turn to Him the most and know that He will never leave you and know that He will answer your prayers just be patient and continue with Faith! It’s not easy believe me I have struggles too but keep holding on and He will bless you!
Now for some Highlights from the Week:
-Got trained at the Office of what I do as a Tech Missionary and it went well! There’s not a whole lot that we do but mostly just check phones and go through and make sure everyone is using their phones properly!
-LOTS AND LOTS OF CONTACTING! Our secteur(area) is pretty small and so we have a few people we are teaching but when we don’t have lessons we do contacting and so we just go door to door and just ask if people are interested and share a little message! Most people are too busy but we get a few that are and it’s great because we found some that we are going to visit next week with so I’m excited!
-We found this new ami(friend) and had a little lesson to fix another day we can meet with her and it was such an amazing experience with her! She could feel the spirit a lot and was just crying with us! My heart was so touch and I wanted to just give her a massive hug but of course I didn’t but I knew the Holy Ghost was there giving her a massive hug for me!
-Helped move bikes from the office to one of the Senior Couples house with Elder Wong who is over vehicles in the office and they were so sweet to then invite us to dinner with them because we helped and it was such an amazing day with them! They are the sweetest! I also had this really good fish with this white sauce called roquefort! It was incredible!
-AN AMAZING MIRACLE!! It was something so small! So we didn’t have a Fatams on Saturday because the family had a situation and wasn’t able to do the Fatams! We were like it’s fine no worries! I then was like not sure what I’ll make for dinner but I could just have my good ol PB&J sandwich or cereal! But as we were coming back home from our secteur I said a little prayer in my heart that somehow there would be food at our house! So we got home and sure enough the other Elders in our house got pizza and had a bunch extra that they shared with us! SEEK AND EXPECT MIRACLES! Even if is something so small if it’s important to you it’s important to God! Never hesitate to pray to Him for help! He always provides a way! It was so amazing and I just felt Heavenly Father saying don’t worry Elder LeBaron I’m here I have you in My hands just keep trusting!
That’s about it for this week but I just want to end with this quote I found! “Do you want to be happy? Forget yourself and get lost in this great cause. Lend your efforts to helping people. … Stand higher, lift those with feeble knees, hold up the arms of those that hang down. Live the gospel of Jesus Christ”(-President Gordon B. Hinckley). This is what I need to do to become the missionary that God needs me to be! Keep holding on and know that when I forget myself the Lord will always be there to fill in the gaps and help me have the strength to help others! I’m not here for myself but to help others find their way back to Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father and share Their light with everyone! The weeks don’t get any easier but with His strength I can forget myself and not care if it’s easy or not because it will never be easy but with the Strength of the Lord He can give me the strength to always have a smile on my face and forget my worries to help others and share my love with them! That is why I’m here! And I am so grateful for the strength of the Lord because I wouldn’t be able to make it through every day without His strength and power! He is my strength! Again I am so grateful for my family as well and for my parents! They are my everything and I am so grateful for eternal families! Love you all so so much! So grateful for all of you! Miss you all! Beaucoup d’amour! Ua here au ia outou!💙
-Elder LeBaron
