Sick

Hola Mi familia,

Yo Tengo... I have been working on my Spanish lately. It has been a pretty good week nothing really amazing happen, I am happy that I didn't hit my head against anything this week. I did get my comp. Pretty good with a belt whipping battle. right in the jaw. I Felt pretty bad, but he forgave me.

There was a baptism that I went to It was a guy that I helped teach. His name is Elvin, he works for the air force for intelligence. He is the coolest guy ever. he made all the right changes in his life so that he could experience the full power and joy that the Holy Ghost can bring us. It was a really good baptism. Before they were baptized the Spanish Elders told us that the water was cold so Elder Gordon and I got these big pots and filled them with water and we boiled them and poured them into the font. It wasn't enough to make it warm but it was enough to make it not freezing.

Daniel and Jennifer Molina are not doing as good this week. Jennifer came down with a major infection in her body that took her to the hospital. So I haven't seen them in a couple of days. I hope that they are doing better and that we can help in any was possible. Milagros Feleciano is doing alright, she didn't make it to stake Conference because she was out of town with her aunt. It was a little frustrating but we will be patient with her. There baptismal date is on the 12th of February. We are going to word extra extra hard and smart to prepare them and help them come into the fold of God.

It didn't help that I got sick Yesterday. I was out for the count. I slept most of the rest of the day and all of the night. My bones ached and I had no strength in me. I was kind of getting depressed that I couldn't get out there and teach the people that I love, and Satan was working very hard on me to make me doubt myself and make me miserable. I just prayed and studied when I had enough strength and I was spiritually uplifted. I feel a lot better today and I am going make sure that I can be there for our investigators.

I hope that I can be more like Job in those situations of struggle and hardship. I was reading this morning in the Ensign in back of the title page. Job States," Even though God may destroy me, ..... I will trust in Him." I know that God knows what will make us happy and he will help us through the hard times in our lives. We just have to trust in him.

I love you and wish you to have the comfort of the spirit to guide you this next week. Take Care.
