We had interviews with president and it was great to be with him for a few well, couple minutes, I truly know that he is called of God as is any other mission president or leader in this church, he was given inspiration for me at this time that I needed! He likes us as a strong companionship. We had two ROUGH days where everything fell through, but we ended the week with a ton of spiritual experiences one being with a great investigator named Pamela. She has been reading the Book of Mormon diligently to receive an answer if it is true or not and sure enough she did!!! It was great because she didn't realize it was the spirit testifying to her that it was true until we read a few scriptures describing how the spirit helps us come to know these things.
Other than that it was another fantastic day, with my fantastic comp in my fantastic mission... ha ha. Don't get me wrong with my sarcastic nature and humor, I DO find this all Fantastic!! There is nothing harder than a mission, it's a bit stressful for sure and only a couple times do the leaders tell you you are doing a good job, you are on your own as a companionship so much and so you have to rely on how you think/feel and seek inspiration ALL the time. I am in the mission for moments like those that Pamela had, where the spirit testifies in an undeniable way that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is true and the gospel of Jesus Christ brings JOY. I know that it is lasting, I will forever testify that God loves us and that for the same reason he calls prophets in our day. I know that Christ is pleading our case to the Father in every passing moment and that he is my brother:) I hope that you all have an amazing week and look for the spiritual experiences in life:)
I'm doin' good mom and dad, keep praying for me when you have those promptings, who knows maybe something would've happened... actually if you guys had the prompting its most surely that something was going to happen! It's a little sketchy at the break of the day as we head out. The trail that we take to go to the gym is known to be dangerous but we still walk on it maybe it was that but there was not anything that I know of that I needed protection sooooo... it must have been of protection! :) It worked whatever the reason! Prayer is powerful and I feel you Mom & Pops! I'm doing great and there isn't anything too crazy that has happened :)
I am grateful to be here another transfer and the bishop told us this week that he wants us here for the next change as well (what? ha ha ...he likes us and knows we are working hard) I don't know if that will happen but its nice that the bishop asked that my comp and I stay here for another change :) I love the work and this week we are gonna find at least one more solid investigator in these following days to baptize! Right now we also have five people with set dates, the only thing is they need to come to church these next three weeks! but we know God's taking care of us. Thanks for always caring. I love you all so much and I promise that I am doing great:):) Have an amazing week. Hey mom and Tawa, I'm loving your HILARIOUS emails. I laugh and feel like I have to use the gift of discernment to understand the emails when the voice command goes all crazy ha ha LOVE YOU OODLES:)
Love Elder Toolson
