Dear friends and family,
We had our zone conference this last week, and it was super awesome! Something that we really put a lot of emphasis in is making specific plans and following out with those. Elder Lingenbrink and I decided that we could be a lot better with all of that, so we've been setting goals and making plans about invinting the members to come and help us a little bit more.
It was a really cool experience. We went to go teach a less active with him and the less active's friend was there. We started talking with them, and the member just said, "So I imagine that S. has told you all about our friends here" and we had a really cool lesson about how we can find all of the answers that we need if we obey the Gospel and diligently seek after the answers. It was super powerful! and super true! It reminds me a lot of the scripture in James 1 that says, "if any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God ... but ask in faith nothing wavering." (see James 1:5-6) Later on in the epistle, James teaches us what it means if we say the word faith. That it isn't just a passive hope for something, or even a belief in something, but a belief that moves us to action. Or even an action that moves us to believe. The answers are there, we just have to look pretty hard for them sometimes. But, if we keep doing the things that we know that we should, the answer will come. I know that it will.
That was about it for this week. I hope that everything is going swimingly for you wonderful people!
Love,
Elder DuBose
