The Spirit & Goodbye!

So in my friends (k-dog's) blog, she posted about an amazing experience we had and I think that I will go ahead and let all my blog readers hear about how I felt during this time. We participated in a Church tour, which the Missionaries set up (and anyone who knows me, I love missionary work) So I decided that I would like to go on a tour and see what exactly they prepare. I brought along my friend (k-dog) who is also a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. We participated in walking through the church going to different rooms in the church and we learned about the apostasy, but the next room was the most spiritual room I have been in. We walked into a class room that had soft music playing in the back ground and had pictures of Jesus Christ on every chair that surrounded the room and and every wall and chalk board were covered with numerous pictures of Christ. There were pictures from his birth all the way to his resurrection and so forth. I was the first person to walk in to the room and as I stepped into the room I froze, everyone after me passed around me as I stood in AWE of the spirit in the room. In all four corners of the room they had round tables with multiple sets of scriptures opened and mark for you to read. As I stood in the center of the room and looked at all Christ has been through I began to cry quietly to myself. I sometimes or most times complain about little things in my life that drag me down and I begin to feel as if I cant take anything else. However, after I walked out of the church tour I remembered how blessed I am to understand that my problems are little in comparison. I am so thankful for my family who took the chance when they heard the true word of Christ and how that has continued to be a strong part of my family and my parents who raised me up in the church. I will never forget the amazing feeling I felt that day and how I appreciate the amazing work the Elders do. I am so glad that I am able to have them in my home to share a lesson and to feed them. They truly are elect men of god. K-dog and I did have to say goodbye to Elder Truman today and I know he will continue to bless others lives and those people will feel of his amazing spirit and love for his savior. His companion will continue to serve here in West Lethbridge YSA and we will continue to benefit from his dedication to the savior. Although goodbyes are always hard for me, I find it hard to say good bye to the amazing spirit which they bring. My testimony strengthens every time, and I love hearing about their investigators and making sure the are fed. I have contemplated serving a mission but as I ponder and pray on that idea I know that I am exactly where I am supposed to be and as well as getting the blessing of missionary work by being available to help them teach non-members or setting them up with non-members. I also am working with out of my less active friends and I watched her receive a blessing and the spirit that was in that room brought us both tears. I would never pass up these amazing chances to participate in the Lords work and bring others the happiness that I have. The moral of my story is all those members out there who have Elders in your wards, you are lucky. Learn from them, and support them as they strive to carry out the Lords work. I personally could not tell you have my life has been blessed as I continue to be a tool for the Elders. Spread the love and the Lords words, someone out there is waiting.....................
