Well thats good that you were better able to understand more of our Savior and to better get to know Him. He truly does love us doesn't He :) It's a warming, loving experience each time I think of Him, as I ponder what He has done for me I have a better understanding of how much He wants us to return with him. I get a thought of COME ON YOU CAN DO IT!! And as I picture Him I see a loving happy face telling me that I'm more then what I think am. He motivates my life, makes me want to be more like him... However something I have learned that he is, is love. I don't think I will ever truly understand all that he has done for me but I know that he is there and loves me more then I can ever imagine! Just remember he is always there he can guide and teach you!
(advice: seach, ponder, and pray :) he listens to ALL our challenges)
I know as a mom you want the best for us mom and that you want us to have much success but the best way to help I've learned is apply the gospel to your own life, then teach others how to do the same :) I know you can do it mom you know us so well and know us more then we do ourselves. I have a great experience with lots of learning experiences this week being a leader. As we were having a few struggles in the district and I was able to talk with them and see how they felt, what their desires were, and then help them see the solution. I've learned that when we open up and talk with them we are better able to understand their point of view and then as we understand we are better able to teach what they need to know so then they can change. However the greatest gift you can receive is after you have searched pondered and prayed when God helps you out and lets you know what you need to do. It's not always all at once but as we follow what we know first, then keep following little by little we are able to change and as we do others see it and they are more willing to change. I've learned as I repent others as well see and are inspired to become better. They start to ask how to do it and then we are able to teach and instruct. But it starts with our own application of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are better able to do that as we study His gospel and are better able to apply the teachings.
This week was very amazing and I've learned a great lesson that we shouldn't want to serve but as we see others that are in need we should jump into action and do what we know is best. I was able to see this as I studied in Doctrine and Covenants as I saw that we should always be happy to do good! However it is sometimes hard if we are not paying attention. I have learned as I pay more attention to my surroundings and where I am at, I am better able to serve and help others. Something amazing happened as well as I was doing this, that I am more happy! I feel my burdens lightened and each day more and more and more I enjoy serving and my love each day is growing for the people. I remembered a principle that I may have lost which is you love when you serve and do good for others. My love for others has been able to grow as I search and find ways to serve and help others. Whether teaching, helping with something that they are doing, or simply just listening and helping others find the solution to all which is the gospel of Jesus Christ.
My loving advice is apply the doctrine of Christ more in your life. Just as I have done and focus on how you can become better and others will be inspired to become better. Serve those you want to help and you will see they are more receptive to your teachings as you talk and better understand them you will be able to apply the doctrine to their lives. Never give up just keep swimming just keep swimming! :) I promise mom the blessing will come!
I've been able to love those that I have teach as I serve them more. I've learned that it is through the atonement and the love of Christ that has allowed me to feel this love! I know that He lives, that He knows us and our personal struggles, I know this is the true gospel and as we apply it we will find joy and peace. I know that all things are possible through Him!!
I love you so much mom and for all that you do for me as your child, I know I wouldn't be where I am in my life without you and that you are doing very well just keep up the good work and the blessing WILL COME!! God blesses those who are faithful, so be faithful and you will be blessed! I know that being obedient brings us blessings, very much needed, and we are able to show those blessings when we serve!
Well we will see with the goals!!! I know that its possible and that we can do it! Just keep trying and trying and trying and if it doesn't end up working out just try again!! Love you so much as well as the family I know that if we try our hardest we will be able to do it!! :) It always requires an effort to complete our goals but if it was easy it wouldn't be a goal! lol If not all are there just do it with what you can and make it a tradition with them and then as more and more participate the tradition is passed! lol WE CAN DO IT!! I knOw It :) stay positive we can reach our dreams!! :)
Love Elder Trujillo
