This week has been absolutely amazing. The MTC is the 2nd best places on the planet I have ever been to. The temple is #1. There a devotionals both Sunday and Tuesday nights. They are fantastic. The talks given are some of the best talks I have ever heard. The spirit is always strong there.
It is absolutely incredible to learn two languages at the MTC. The language of Portuguese and the language of the Spirit. Porguguese comes, but the language of the Spirit it the most important language to learn. To have the Spirit with you when you teach is absolutely necessary. You can't do it without it.
This last Sunday we watched a talk. And it was probably the best talk I have ever heard. It was called Characters of Christ. How great is it what Christ had done for us. Atoning and paying the price of justice for our sins. But in the time of Christ's pain, worse than any of us could even imagine, he thought of others before himself. "Forgive them, for they know not what they do." He forgave everyone and thought of everyone before himself. How great would it be if we could be like Christ, if we could turn outward when the natural man would turn inward. Even in our worst of days, when we believe that everything should be about us and we should get what we want, how awesome would it be if we could think about others.
I hope everyone is enjoying this wonderful experience we have to be tested. For it is truly amazing. God lives. Jesus lives. This gospel is as true as you and me.
