Faith by Actions

This week was really good, i have been getting really tired but its not much of a problem, just every lesson right after lunch i feel like just laying down and sleeping. i tried it once but as soon as i sat down i felt like i wanted to do some thing.  

 

we had interview with the president YEAH i think i passed i got done in less time then every one else i didn't cry and i still have no idea if i am going to leave my area tomorrow or not.

 

YEAH thats right we have changes tomorrow and i wont know if i am leaving or not until nine tonight. our mission is a little bit different than most other missions. our whole mission had a conference with a seventy and we could only go if we had an investigator or a new convert. we took an investigator and a new convert. but there was not enough room for the missionaries so we all were in the temple visitor center.  its quite suprising to all the investigators to see all of us together.  

 

we played  futbal again today and like always i won. it helps that i keep getting put on the teams that pass me the ball and i then kick it and it goes in.  but YEAH i got a lot of goals with out having to run much or actually work that hard so i am happy.

 

As for the work right now, well there is work just allt of it involves looking for people who are not home.  i am slightly negative about not being able to find the people i want to teach and my companion says were is your faith! i had to think for a second  then i realized i was about to say some thing i have almost never said, "I have faith".  i never have liked saying it, and so i didn't, i said we look for these people every day that is my faith.  actions are the greater part of our faith, every one can say i have faith, or i believe.  its those that don't need to say i have faith that truly have faith. you can just look at them and in every action they do you can see that they have faith.  this is the kind of faith i am trying to develope.  where i will never have to explain my faith to any one they can just see it.   yes i know i have to explain my faith to people that is part of being on a mission but you understand what i am trying to say.

 

Well love you all. 

wow i messed up more then thirty times just trying to write  the line above.
