I can't really think of what I did this week, but I know it was really good, nothing super special, just had a better spirit.
I don't have a ton of time this week, but we had a stake conference last week that was all about missionary work and how important it is for the missionaries and the members to work together. And I have been thinking about a conversation Kristi and I had a few weeks ago, we were talking about building up the courage to talk to people about the gospel, and I I have thought about it I realized that sharing the gospel is done in different was and is personal to each of us. Something that works for one person can be terrifying to another. Its our job to find our strengths and our talents and then find ways to share the gospel using those strengths.
There is a family in our branch that is very musically talented and they do "family concerts" where they all get together and play music. They begin and end with a prayer to make it a spiritual event then play. They decided they are going to invite some of their non-member friends to their concerts and share with them the joy they get from music! I have found out that I find it hard to just talk to people, but I do enjoy doing service, so I look for ways to serve people and then I am more comfortable doing missionary work. So I want you all to think of your strengths. You all have some, I have seen them. And think of ways to use those strengths so share the gospel.
I love you all and I know this gospel is true with all my heart! Jesus is our Savior and we need to help others come tho that knowledge! Pray for strength and act on the impressions given!
I hope you all have a great week!
Love,
Kev
