Hello my friends! I hope everyone had a great week this week! My week was pretty normal but i just wanted to share something really cool that i found out this week! This week one of my converts from my first area, Jacqueline Cruz, told me that this last week she went to the temple! She did baptisms for her ancestors and she says she felt so happy to be in the Lords house and to be able to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. This last saturday her son of 9 years was baptized (The guy with the glasses in the photo isnt me).
My heart is filled with gratitude to the Lord my God for his loving kindess toward me that i was able to be a part of this young families life and to be able to bring them the Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. As a missionary, many times i have felt that my efforts are wasted or that nobody wants to listen to me. but i always remember that my efforts have eternal signficance. That even though my fruits seem small that sometimes they lead to greater outcomes. With Jacqueline, i feel the overwhelming love of my heavenly father and the knowledge that someday my efforts will be made manifest to me. already i see fruits greater than i could have ever imagined, that through me, i was able to bring the gospel to more than just one person, but generations of people.
Always remember to share the gospel. open your mouth and be bold. you never know who will accept and you never know whos life will be changed because of you. I hold true and testify of the promise that our lord gives us in the doctrine and covenants that if we should bring save one soul unto him, how great shall be your joy in the kingdom of my father.
I hope everyone has a great and fruitful week!
Amor,
Elder Alejandro Lim
Note: We found out later that Jacqueline took out her endowment.
