Kamusta Po Kayo
This week I have been grateful for the small miracles in the life
of a missionary sometimes called the Tender Mercies of the Lord
Nephi 1:20 . Just little things like Nanny Lita Quimpo saying a
prayer without us begging her, she being the one to volunteer
really shows to me and sister the she is truly progressing that she
wants to change, she wants to come closer to Christ we are now
their to show her the way rather than drag her towards it. I am
grateful for the lord helping me to hold my tongue I am for the
very first time in my life learning to control at temper and impatient
temperament that has haunted me for as long as I can remember.
I have truly gained a testimony of the principle of the fast just
yesterday that as I fasted for the lord to help me to recognize when
and where I can have more patience, and to strengthen me their
he was speaking peace to my mind and giving me the strenght to
say Is this really that important? I've tried before on my own to
change to become a better person just because i knew it was
something i needed to do but only now giving up and truly
turning over to the Lord have I found that with him I have the
strength to overcome this weakness.
in connection with miracles I'd like to share with you a thought
a had a while ago at a stake conference in Tarlac as I listened
to a wonderful talk given by Sister Costley a Senior sister who
served with her husband back when I was assuaged in Tarlac.
She spoke of the miracle of a man being healed from Cancer as
well as other many miracles continue to happen in our time to
point out that miracles still do happen in our day. I thought how
though it is true that a man being healed from terminal cancer is
indeed a miracle. I have also found though that in my day to day
work as a missionary the miracles that I witness, namely the
miracle that happens when the heart of a son or daughter of god
truly changes and begins to make choices to come closer to
Christ is a true miracle with an eternal effect, because that man
who was cured from cancer will still die whither it be sooner or
later in some other way but the miracle that takes place when a
son or daughter of god makes the choice to accept the saving

ordinances of god is a miracle that will have an eternal effect.
In terms of transfer announcements this week I will still be here
in Camiling Branch one for which I am very grateful I LOVE
THIS AREA . I feel like my new companion whoever she will be
is lucky to be coming into such a wonderful area with such
amazing investigators and supportive members and I hope and
pray to be an amazing companion for her.
Mahal na Mahal Ko Kayo,
