This week has been really good. Sister Dam came to sacrament late so she couldn't get baptized but tomorrow she will be!
This last Tuesday I went on a switch of with Elder Chandler who is the District Leader here in Asoke. We were greenies together in Rangsit. He's really cool and a hard worker. We taught someone from China. She doesn't speak English so we had to use a translator.
We had to do a lot of stuff at the office this week which is no fun but we found some cool people on the streets to teach but they don't live here or where missionaries are so we have to wait till they come back into Asoke. We met this girl named Jee and she's awesome. She wants to be baptized on the 23rd. She is so awesome. She told us she was looking for the truth and she feels happy every time she comes to church and learns with us. definitely found the truth. The Lord is blessing us with many miracles in finding his children that are prepared.
We had a sports night at the church and we played chair ball. My team won every time.
This week in personal study I was reading in my favorite book in the New Testament, John, and found a couple cool scriptures. It's in John 4:34-38. Jesus's disciples told him to eat and asked if there was anyone that gave him meat. This is Jesus's response.
34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
36 And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
37 And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
38 I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
It's similar to D&C 4 and talks about missionary work. The field is white already to harvest. There are so many prepared people looking for the truth and they can't find it. It's our job to help them come to know where the truth is. That's what I'm here to do in Thailand is to find those that God has been preparing before I met them. It's so cool to see the hand of God in people's lives and I'm so happy to be a missionary. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. I love you all and miss you all!
