Overcoming Trials With The Guidance Of The Spirit
Hey folks!
We had a great week here in Arbolillo. We had the baptism of Maribel this
week and we have really seen a miracle happen in her life. For a really long
time and since the time I have known her she has had a problem with alcohol and
she couldn't stop drinking. We would work with her and talk and after going good
for a few days she would fall into it again and she didn't show too much
commitment during the process to stop. This week however we talked with her
about how she wanted her life to be and what kind of goals she had. She
recognized that drinking did not make her happy and that it only caused
unhappiness and sorrow in her life and for the first time I saw her and heard
her express her sincere desire to stop drinking and have the guidance of the
Spirit in her life. She was changing and said she had committed with herself
right before we went to visit her that day that from that moment onward she
would never drink again. We were very happy and with the guidance of the Spirit
helped her have an even firer resolution to follow the Lord. We gave her a
blessing and since that day she has had many temptations and opportunities to
fall but has overcome and resisted. When she told me all about her trials and
how she has overcome, it made me so happy to see someone fighting and doing all
in their power to be able to return to the presence of our God relying solely on
His power.
We had lots of other great experiences this past week and look forward to
the baptism of Maria Elena this weekend who is the mom of one of our recent
converts, Julio. We have an elder with us for a little while named Elder Solis
who is waiting for his VISA to Argentina where he will be serving. He's way fun
and I don't think I have laughed so much or so hard in a long time. Needless to
say we all are doing great. We also went to the temple this week! Yay! It was
the first time I have been able to go since I left the MTC and it was a good
feeling being able to go and be in the temple for a little bit. Have a great
week! Love you all!
¡Ten fe y se obediente!
Todo mi amor,
Elder San Diego
