TWO WEEKS LEFT!

Hey Everyone,
Well How are you all? I'm good here at the Mtc just trainning to do the work of the lord, just something of epic poportions,(exxcuse my grammar and spelling, I'm speaking only russian the past week and only russian for the next two weeks) Sorry to everyone last week, I didn't mail any letters, I wrote htem I just forgot to mail them..hahaha I'll make up for it and try to write you this week or send the letter I wrote last week. This week a couple of cool things happened, I was at a Fireside and I saw my new Mission president who will come in july and serve, he is getting language training. He seems like a spiritual giant, and a really great guy. We had mission conference this last week in was great, I've been to two of them, they are always uplifting and give me awesome study subjects for the next week. The message for this week is about recognizing the spirit, I was reading in 3 Nephi 11 and can a across and awesome scripture. Starting with verse 3 and through 6 It Talks about the people and how they talked with each other, and they heard a voice, it peirced them to the core but they didn't recognize it. It came a second time and yet again they still din not recognize it. And the third time, They opened their ears and their eyes were steadfastly towards heaven. Then they understood the voice, and it testified of Jesus Christ. We can all learn a lesson from these verses. When it talks in V:3 they were conversing with each other, We should not be concerned with the world or with ourselves, when we get caught up in the world and in ourselves we become numb to the promptings of the holy ghost. It might peirce us but will we know it, will we recognize it?. It Came a second time which just shows god's love for us he continues to try and talk to us and make our lives better even though we might not be listening. But Finnally They opened their ears, and like them we must Look for the spirit, listen for it, seek for it, and as they did, look steadfastly towards the heavens, abandoning the world and being selfeless, being as christ would. Looking to God steadfastly, and have a desire to always serve him. Only Then will we understand, But the understanding we gain is monumental and priceless, We as they did hear a testimony of Jesus christ. Later in the chapter, verse 14 the Savoiur talks to the people. He talks about his prints in his hands, feet, and side. As we Follow thos steps and listen to the spirit we can come to know our savouir, we can come to better understand his atonement and love for us, and then we in turn can share that love with others, The happiness can't be discribed, When you feel your savoiurs love and know what he want s you to do. Well, I'm speaking 100% Russain now and it sure coming along, It helps that we have natives to talk to,They are really nice guys, The teach me all sorts of things about the russian language and Ukraine. I truly love my mission and I've learned and grown alot, all in the short time of weeks but the lord knows what needs to happen so I will put my trust in him, I love you all, Read the 3 nephi 11, and pray, the lord will tell you what you need to hear, he loves each one of us and knows what we each need. I miss you all. The church is true and whatever happens the lord is in it.
