Given the shortage of time and what not this will be short.
First off, I am very grateful for the plan of salvation and the gospel in general. I have been studying the plan of salvation a lot recently, it touches everything. For me it is sad to talk to people, religious or not, that have no self worth or meaning in life. The plan of salvation is the answer to it, and families are eternal in it.
Yes, we had success, we were able to baptize several this week. Two of which were these young boys and they are a crack up. The whole family is awesome and I am excited to help the rest begin a testimony and hopefully one day be baptized.
Ocotal has been a fight, I have fought and clawed for the success we have had, but in the end it was nothing I did, it was all done by our Loving Heavenly Father.
I am not accomplishing what I thought I would on my mission. I am accomplishing something more profound and beautiful than what I thought. I am refining myself and learning more of Christ. Something I hadn't fully considered before.
I love seeing people progress more, but I LOVE TEACHING.
What I took away from this week was that I must trust more in God in my labors. I was trying to shoulder too much of the load on myself, something that was unnecessary. I learned a little more how to rely on the Spirit and the Atonement of Christ more.
Obedience is the one true test of this life, when we are obedient we can receive all the blessings our Heavenly Father wants to give us. Obedience brings blessings but Exact Obedience brings miracles. The biggest miracle is that we will become, one day, the heirs of eternal life.
I love you all so much, need not worry for me!
Love Elder Morrison
PS, prayers for my sweet Great Grandma Letha, her husband of almost 70 years, my Great Grandpa, passed away this week. Love you Grandma and Grandpa.
