What a week! I got over my ailment and I feel great!
This week we had a tri-zone conference with our mission president, his wife and two quorum of seventy! Talk about amazing. It was wonderful to be at the feet of these amazing people. We were taught and edified by the spirit. I felt nourished and energized. One thing I learned was finding is so important and I don't do enough of it. Finding is something I need to be doing all day, looking for every opportunity to share the restored gospel with people! Its not just something we do from 4-6pm. It's all the time. I am going to work on finding all day and not just a small portion of it. Setting goals of how many people I am going to talk to each day should help.
I was able to reunite with my old companions Elder Hatch and Elder Buhman at the conference. What a wonderful thing. I love those to missionaries. I gave them a big hug.
Had another meeting with Ian and Elijah. We really got caught in the slog of secondary questions and the spirit was not there. I did not teach simple gospel truths and I was very confused and frustrated. There was not direction to which the lesson was going and I felt feeling gloomy. I did not feel love and compassion for Ian and Elijah. The teachings in the Book Of Mormon are clear and simple to understand. They are plain. This is a gospel in which children can be taught and can understand well enough to make a commitment to baptism at the age of eight. That blows me away sometimes.
Hope you all had a great week! Love you all! Elder Spencer
