Feb 3: and the weeks keep passing

We spent this week traveling from one side of the zone to the other and back delivering packages, beds, desks, all kinds of stuff. Not even to mention going on divisions all in the same week. You can say traveling sure keeps you busy and being busy keeps the days going by super fast.

I had to play the piano at church, it was super funny cause I haven't played in over 2 years and really, I had no idea what I was doing. I was so lost, messing up so much. I got a kick out of it, and so did the members.

Yesterday a random guy showed up at church and bore a testimony about a book he found called the Book of Mormon. Some missionaries some time gave it to him, and he read almost the whole thing in a night. But the missionaries never came back so he searched for the church. He walked a full hour and a half to get there too. After church we visited him, so we walked with him to his house and it took a full hour and a half. That's some sacrifice. We wanted to put him on baptismal date that same day but we didn't have any time cause we had to walk all the way home haha.

Alma 37:37 says
Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.
Don't forget to do the easy, simple things that we always forget to do. Know that God wants to bless us but we have to be willing to ask for his blessings.

Love Elder Rich
