Hey Everyone!
This week has flown by so quickly! It was probably due to the countless miracles we saw this week! I love love love being a missionary and watching this gospel bless the lives of others as well as totally changing and transforming me! I have become more and more aware of my many weaknesses but it's been so comforting to know how much God loves working with humble hearts! Never ever think that it's too late to change and improve! Just start now! Be who you want to be starting this moment! If it's not perfect, so what?! Don't ever give up! Anyway, it has been an extremely great week! Monday was really fun we ended up going mini golfing and out to dinner with a member! It was the weirdest Halloween, but still really good!
On Tuesday we did temple service again! Oh how I love temple service! The temple is absolutely gorgeous!!!! I totally forgot to mention that we are in a car share again! So after doing service all afternoon we biked the 8-10 miles to our area! As soon as we got there we got a call from President! All red faced and huffing and puffing we learned that president was going to come out teaching with us! I've never biked so fast in my entire life! We got back with just enough time to eat dinner! We were able to go see four different individuals and all the lessons were absolutely amazing! The spirit was incredibly strong! One of the men we saw was a less active who had drastically made the decision to get a divorce and leave his family! It was our last lesson with him and we testified, with more boldness and power than ever before, about Jesus Christ and his Atonement! We were nearly all in tears as the spirit confirmed every word! He asked if we would give him a blessing! Elder Gillen gave an amazing blessing that was nothing short of inspired! It was humbling to be there! Even after all this he was still set in his ways! It was so hard to see a man feel the spirit so strong, hear a promoting, and then ignore it! It was a heart striking reminder of the importance of our agency! God respects us and loves us enough to choose, even if what we are choosing is clearly the wrong choice! But he also loves us enough to never leave our side if we allow him to! Whatever you are going through, council with the Lord and you cannot fail!
There have been oh so many miracles this week! Unfortunately I don't have enough time to write about it! Just know how much I love this gospel and how much I love my Savior! He is our Savior and Redeemer! He just waits for us to come unto Him! This gospel is amazing! Thank you all for your love and support! I look up to and love you all!
My prayers are with you always,
Your faith seeking missionary,
Elder Tracy
