It is quite simple really. But it works!

My Dear World,

Heavenly Father knows exactly who you are. He knows exactly where you are. He knows exactly what you are feeling. He knows exactly what you need. 

Can you be exactly obedient?

You know, it is possible. God doesn't give us commandments we can't keep. This doesn't mean it is easy. And this to me is the most beautiful part: if we mess up, we have tomorrow. 
In the mission, obedience is key. Obedience not only to leaders, but to the Lord, to the spirit. I work on this every day and it seems like the more that I do, the more I realize how much I am missing. How many blessings! 
So here is your official invitation:

Be obedient, receive blessings. ¿Vale?

This week was full. It was a lot of work. We have dropped many investigators because they haven't kept commitments. This has cost them the available blessings of the gospel. Be obedient! Commandments are there because HEAVENLY FATHER LOVES YOU.

As missionaries, we are here to plant seeds and nurture testimonies. Right now, with the turnover of investigators and instructing ward leaders, it feels more like we are tilling the earth. This means you can look forward to some sweet stories in the future of this area. 

For now, you have my love. Enjoy your week and try harder to obey in an area you have been lacking. You know what area it is. And God knows exactly how He is going to bless you.

‘Til next week!
