How Effective are Your Prayers?

HOW EFFECTIVE ARE YOUR PRAYERS?
This Question impacted me a lot. How effective am I praying? 

LDS.org. Sister Linda S. Reeves posted an excellent article about this.

I love self-evaluating questions, like the ones she asked "How is our communication with our Father in Heaven? Has our communication with Him improved? Do we speak with Him more often, or less? How effective is our communication?”

Miracle of the Week

This Sunday we took one of our new members out with us to work. She just got baptized a few weeks back, and she was pretty nervous. We were praying that we would find people that night, becuase we didn't have any set appointments. We went to the first house, and the woman wasn't home. We ended up talking to somebody else and getting a return appointment for her to learn more.

We later went to another neighborhood, and we found at least 3 other families outside on the street for us to teach and talk to

It is always so much more powerful with a member there. She rocked it!

When are You Brave?

Our last Zone Conference we focused on when we are Brave. Being a missionary is sometimes a scary thing. We have to talk to complete strangers and invite them to hear more about the true Gospel of Jesus Christ.
So, our mission made a music video, where we all answered the question "I am brave when...."


So when are YOU going to be brave?
Go be brave, go share the Gospel. Why not? 

My Rock

Today I am feeling grateful for my Savior, Jesus Christ.

I am far from perfect. And, I am far from being without problems and trials in my life. I have had my fair share or challenges.
But something I have learned is that life, is stressful. 

No matter how stressful, hard, or lost we may seem. HE, understands.

Jesus Christ paid the price for everything we will ever have to go through in this life. 

That does not mean that, that diminishes our personal responsibility to act and suffer the consequences for our actions.

But, because of Him, it is possible.
