Almost there. We fly out on Wednesday so it'll be over before we know it, that is... assuming Missionary Travel didn't fumble the bag. They be doing that sometimes.
Elder Baird in my my district just tested possitive for the flu, massive L. He's currently packing up to go live in quarentine. Not ideal, please pray for him that he might be able to get to Korea when he's supposed to.
This week has been pretty good, probably the fastest week yet. We've been doing a lot of teaching with the native district and it's actually pretty fun. We've also been doing some more culture and daily life training which is a lot more fun that grammar. It's crazy to think I won't drive a car for two years haha, but I like twains so we're good.
Since Elder Baird has been sick all week Elder Douglas and I have been taking turns skipping class to be with him. It's been pretty nice because I had plenty of time to do personal Korean and Gospel study.
The weather here got super nice this week and all of us white people burned ourselves crispy because we spent way too much time outside haha. Oopie dadie.
One of the Japanese Elder's has a guitar! Praise the Lord. Some prayers take 8 weeks to be answered, but they get answered, amen. You best believe I got my greasy fingers on that bad boy last night
Spiritual Thought:
I read an Elder L. Tom Perry talk this week while I was with the sick Elder called, "Obedience to the Law is Liberty." I loved this talk because sometimes we think of God's commandments as something that holds us back from what we think is best for ourselves. I can testify that our Heavenly Father already knows perfectly what is best for us, and that he is much smarter than we are. Sometimes we think that the commandments and standards that we live by are holding us back, but they are truly there to allow us to reach our full potential. Abiding God's laws gives us power over our appetites and desires and gives us power from heaven. Not to get to political but it's pretty obviouse that society does much better when we uphold God's laws than when we don't lol. Our examples can change a lot though, so make sure that you're doing your best.
Love you guys, next email is from Korea!
