This week has been super awesome. I've been worked to
death ha. And I got strep throat which was not fun and I definitely wasn't the
same for a bit when I had it but that's ok. I got some antibiotics and
everything so I'm good now. That's fun that you and mom are going to Nauvoo in
the summer. Happy Birthday mom!!!!! Well I'm glad everything for the most part
is going good around home.
We have two investigators with baptismal dates and hopefully we'll have a few more this next week. We don't track more than two hours a day. We usually use the area book and make phone calls. We've been having a lot more success lately which has been great. Sorry you have to give a talk in church mom. The Bible dictionary talking about faith may be a good place to start though. It talks about knowing or believing in Jesus Christ which is the base of any testimony. I think that having a testimony means that those things that we have faith in, (like the atonement and Book of Mormon) we take that faith and we apply it to action. Our testimony is backed by our action I believe. Our testimony is only as strong as our faith. That is pretty much cause they go hand in hand.
This week I've been working on understanding the Atonement and it's been so mind blowing for me. I have a new respect for the power of the atonement it's amazing to feel the power of it just through studying it for an hour a day. It's something that if every person understood, the world would be a much better place and it'd be a lot easier to do missionary work. But it's great to see the blessings it brings into the lives of the people you teach it to when they start to use it.
I think Derek is going to Japan. I have no clue why I think that but that's what I think. Also my apartment is nice. It's not bad. I like it.
How's everything at home? Hopefully good.
Love all of you
Love, Elder Miller
P.S. These are some more pictures- the ones of me with the sombrero are at a member’s house and that's a good looking fish huh? I caught it yesterday during preparation day. Tell Bo and Tyler to match it ;)
