Week 22 - Confirmation Of Truth

Größe ich!

 

I hope everything is going well with everyone. This week was very good by us. The weather is finally starting to cool off, so I hope it stays like this. This week we had a Straße Ausstellung (street display) in Bonn. It was awesome. I love doing these because we talk to everyone. When I talk to everyone, I feel like I am actually doing work. We meet a lot of cool people here. I also have never been mistaken so much before for being Zeugen Jehovah. Other than that, this week was a lot of go-by's and dooring.

 

 

I think one of the coolest things about being a missionary is hearing your investigators pray. When they pray sincerely, the spirit is always there. Not only does it help investigators receive a confirmation of the truth, but it also confirms to us, as missionaries, that what we are doing is right. Isn't it weird to think about how the spirit works? God sends a messenger to give us confirmations of truth (Moroni 10: 5), as well as guidance (1 Nephi 4: 6) and comfort (John 15: 26), through our thoughts and feelings (D&C 9: 8-9). It is unexplainable, but "Oh then, is not this real? (Alma 32: 35)"

 

Usually I like to share something from the Book of Mormon. Right now I am in the war chapters. If the Book of Mormon doesn't contain the fullness of the gospel of Jesus Christ (which it does), it is just a good book. It just makes sense to me how a farm boy with no education could make up a 531 page book with a thousand years worth of history, connecting all of the dots, using Hebrew literature, prophesying about Jesus Christ, using ancient language, and leaving no holes in the story, as well as keeping it in harmony with the Bible. To me, aside from the spiritual confirmation (Moroni 10: 3-5), the book itself is a testimony of its divinity.

 

Vielen Dank für die Stützung! Ihr seid toll! Schöne Woche noch!
