Our apartment is
short on cleaning supplies, needs some cleaning, and Elder Poff is buying a set
of pants. It'll be short today. For
the past little while I've been studying a lot of kanji. I realize how blind I
was. Now that I can read a good amount of signs and papers, it's opened up a
whole new world. Japan's sick.
While knocking on doors we talked to this lady who's house
smelled crazy good. I have no idea what type of smell it is but it seemed like a
mix between fancy smelly stuff and fresh leather. It's been nagging at me for
the past week, like I wanna smell it again so bad.
We had a couple guys in the ward who are our age leave for
their own missions. I'm so excited for them but now we're realizing how huge of
help they were for us. It's gotten so much harder to find someone to help us
out in teaching lessons. Also we used to go on splits with them a lot and it
really sped up the work. Now we have to pull out the ward directory.
Our main man with the baptismal date is starting to
understand that faith is an action. It's not just simply believing that
something is true, but acting on that belief. I know that if we strive to be
better than we were before, take time to serve others, and follow the teachings
of Christ, we will find joy and build that faith. It is promised and it is
real. But don't just take my word for it; it helps if you try it out. The world
can seem a bit scary some days, and missionary work can be a bit overwhelming,
but when you find that love and joy for yourself through faith, sharing it with
others doesn’t seem too bad at all.
Life's good.
愛を込めて、
Cuff Elder
