Je suis enfant de Dieu - March 29, 2015

Hello Mom! I will be taking care of the pants today, did you want me to send back the ones you sent or just the faded ones? 

This past week has been fantastic! I really took what you said to heart and I thought of myself a few years back having to be a companion with who I am now...and it made me realize who I was right now wasn't who I wanted to be. So I prayed asking Heavenly Father to bless me with charity and empathy. That if I would at least find opportunities to complement him that God would take care of the rest! And he has! I am more patient and kind then I was, still not where I want to be, but I am close! I have tried before to pray for charity but, I wasn't humble enough. Thought like " why should I have to change?" Or "Can't I just ignore it" stopped me from truly changing. But God doesn't hesitate to show us who we need to be! And now I know! I have been thinking a lot about who I was, who I am, and who I want to be. And I have seen that as I change who I am to be more like God wants me to be, that, When I think of who I will be, I have a lot more hope and peace because I know that I am doing what I need to do know to prepare myself for who I am to become!

I really appreciate all of the love and help that you have given me while on my mission! You my be far away but I know you are near. 

 5 For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ.

6 As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: (Colossians 2)

Love
Elder Herrin
