Arizona! Congrats to all who prefer the heat and to Dad who gets to do what he loves in the town he loves closer to family. :)

Mom and Dad both said so many times that moving to Arizona will have a big effect on me, but I don't see how that could be. I'm in Portugal. So no worries. We don't have to worry for quite a while (well over a year). :) But I will be praying for Jeremy and Katy. And for you all to know how to get through and succeed in whatever new circumstances you are faced with. I will be praying that you will know what to do with each and every decision.

 

Most of all in both of the emails from mom and dad, what stood out was that the Lord is answering your prayers already. The details aren't in place, but that desire to know that direction you should head in was finally answered and it seems like that has been something that you have both been looking for. So I'm happy.

Scripture of the day:

 

Yea, and how is it that ye have forgotten that the Lord is able to do all things according to his will, for the children of men, if it so be that they exercise faith in him? Wherefore, let us be faithful to him.

Sorry this is short, but I love you all a lot.

 

Fight the good fight.

Yesterday we went to the baptism of two young men in our district in the elders' area with one of our investigators (Adriana) who I happen to love a lot. Adriana has been investigating the church for quite a while and always has one more doubt, one more question, always has one more fear of being wrong. One of the young men being baptized met the Elders last week, prayed and then decided (after hearing about fasting) to fast to know if the Book of Mormon is true, and then followed through with that decision. Both of these investigators are working and praying with all their might to do the will of the Lord, and because He knows their hearts and their desires He has the ability to answer them in the exact moment that is right for them, for them to know and not fall away.
