So we´re at the library which means that we have to use a french keyboard. It´s remarkably slow even though only about 5 or so of the letters are changed, and all of the punctuation: Daarom (therefore) the shortness.
Well, we had a good week this week. We got a referral from a member yesterday, which is always cool. Also, one of our investigators accepted a baptismal date this past weekend! That was really cool. We´re managing to stay pretty busy finding, for the rest, which is good. Some of our investigators are also making really good progress--they've been reading the Book of Mormon, which will help them the most.
The other day during my studies I was reading a talk from Elder Holland and he said some things that I really liked: There is no easy, comfortable, or convenient way to salvation or exaltation. Every righteous, good, worthy effort is almost certain to be opposed. Why? Because if we are to become like God and enjoy the happiness He enjoys we have to pay the price. And because this is so important the price is almost always higher than we at first really want to pay. But because He loves us, He has made it possible to do, with His help, as always.
In a way, life´s a little like french keyboards: sometimes obnoxious without really understanding the reason, but worth it to write your family. And just when you think you know what you´re doing: it turns out thqt qll the letters qre in the zrong (or just different) spot qnyzqy:
This is the work of the Lord! I love you all!
