It's the Hamster Dance

I hope everybody has taken the time this week to do the Hamster Dance. Yeehaw.

Our friend Víctor who will get baptized this Saturday made the connection that the moon would not have light if it weren't for the sun. That is cool because D and C 76 explains that the Terrestrial Kingdom receives light by the ministration of the Celestial. As I read that section, I pondered about the phrasing of "just men made perfect by the perfect atonement of Christ". An interpretation of "just" can be "imperfect people making an effort to be perfected by Christ". Something I learned about fasting is that in other words it is rejoicing and prayer! I would have never thought that before the mission haha. (D&C 59:14). A fun thought is that we are like german shepherd dogs. The Savior is the Shepherd and we just help herd. If you have ever looked at the little sacrament cups after we drink the water there are always left over drops that defy physics and never disappear and that is why the Savior is the one who drank the bitter cup, because He is the only one that could empty it completely. 3 Nephi is fun to read, verses 3 to 8 explain how to hear Him, verse 14 is a conversion process and verse 15 is "after the fact what to do". Verse 11 is so cool because after asking if it could be removed from Him, He declares that submitted to the will of the Father and did as He was asked to do. (Luke 22:42).

This week was pretty epic. We have been eating some soup every now and then so that is literally the most empowering thing ever. We sang a song with the most precious older man, every time I am with him I just wanna give him a hug. We have been having fun taking long bike rides to get to lessons where there isn't good WIFI, and we go on runs in the early morning to see the sunrise. Gotta be fit for when I finish am I right? We learned to make a classic from scratch noodle dish with a family, it was so fun!
