We are working hard trying to work our best and find those prepared
for the gospel. And we are finding them. We started this week with a
trip to Dorados and a zone conference that was pretty good. We are
talking with everyone and teaching several people. It is amazing to
see the gospel put in action.

Yesterday we had branch conference. It was great, the stake president
came and talked about temples and marrage. And gave us Elders a task
that will change the city if it goes right. We learned yesterday in
Elders Quorum about true greatness. We can learn about this perfectly
in Christ. We can look for worldly greatness and seek to obtain, which
reward will only be temporary. Or we can look for true greatness and
seek to give, which reward will be eternal.

We taught about fear to some investigators, which lesson really stook
to me. Everyone knows right from wrong. But everyone makes the mistake
of choosing what is wrong when they know its wrong. Several of us have
fear to give our all, to do everything that we know is right. But only
now am I starting to learn that only in giving our all, can we find
all of ourselves. True peace, true happiness, and true love, only
exist in our best. The opposite of fear is faith and if we have faith
that in our best, we will have reward, we will find it. So have faith,
and be the best that you know.

Everyone have an amaing week!
