Danitza

     This last week i was laid up with my companion for half the week because he has a hurt knee right now. apparently we work too hard (said the doctor) and we need to walk less (HA!). But we did have a baptism this last weekend! Her name is Danitza. She is pretty much a single mom who is very poor and has a little stand where she sells chips and candies for children and other things. i was really humbled as i got to know her and teach her and promise her the blessings of the gospel as well. One sunday, we came by her house to bring her to the church at first she said she couldnt come because she just had too many problems in her life, as she explained her story and what was going on she began to cry. in this moment i felt a great love and compassion for her and testified of the divinity of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and the power of His Infinite Atonement. 

     I know that when the Lord promises us blessings when we obey that he keeps his promises and blesses us with more that we need. Just as we read in Mosiah 2:22-23. also we can find his promises in verse 40 of the same chapter. After this day i have seen that the lord has blessed her. now her little store is doing a lot better and has more product. i know that as she continues to keep the commandments that she will prosper, and she will be blessed not just temporally but spiritually as well. Read the scriptures, seek what the lord requires of us and what he wants to bless us with. As we search with real intent and sincerity, the lord will guide us to Life Eternal. I hope and pray you will all stay faithful and believe in Christ. Everyone have a great week! I love you all!
