Dear Family and Friends

Trust in God
and in others: For all of my mission I have always trusted in God and
Jesus Christ all the time. I truly love them with every fiber of my
being. But I have always struggled to trust in others, whether that is
members, other missionaries, or my investigators. I have truly loved
them and would do anything for them but I was missing trust. This week
Elder Torres and myself were able to counsel more concerning these
things and God revealed a lot to us. First that unity with anyone; your
companion, spouse, friends, etc.; first comes as you trust them
completely. Then that trust leads you to allow others to act in faith as
God does. Many times God allows us to do things, we mess it up, but
then He helps us to be able to fix it. We must apply this same principle
with those that we come in contact with. Because as we apply this
principle we will allow others to learn and grow and create lasting
conversion in them!
Exact Obedience
in the small things matters: I have always done all I can to be exactly
obedient. But many times we can get lazy with the small things and thus
we lose spiritual power. We need this spiritual power in the world that
we live in and especially as we teach God's children and baptize them!
So I am extremely excited to see amazing miracles this upcoming transfer! I have made a covenant with God to apply these two principles and many others that I have learned this past transfer and I know as a result we will do what has never been done before! Thus God is already blessing us because we are baptizing an amazing part-member family today who we were able to marry yesterday! We also got transfer calls last night and Elder Torres will be leaving. I will be getting a new companion up here in Stuart!
But I gotta go peace and get everything ready for the new transfer! I love ya'll and keep up the Lords work!
With Love,
Elder Pond
