Being stretched.

a spiritual note. without pictues. the mission is full of memories(as you can kind of tell by the picture). life for that matter is too. to serve a mission is to live a small life. you can look at the pictures i have and say wow there is so much positive things happening!!! which is true and all these things are very very deep in my heart. those moments and photos are evidence of the fruit of a lot of work and growth. to think about all that has happened to me is a lot to deal with. i´m thinking about my life to come later on lately. i am a bit timid for it to come. i am completely free to soak in the gospel of the one who createdall things, who knows all things and suffered for all things. i can think of the most discouraging and hardest moments of my 26 years here on the earth. and all that i have experienced in the last 13 months seems to be the most difficult. the Lord has blessed me through the path i have taken. i have gained such a faith that i feel prepared for everything and anything. i feel completely different. there is no room for sadness in any form in my heart. i feel so optimistic about the future, even though a bit timid. i learned with out a doubt that my redeemer lives. that in him is the only hope we can have. in the words of the ´preacher´, vanity of vanities saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities;all is vanity. or in the words of the apostle Paul. the things seen are all temporal. the things which aren´t are eternal. that we may know, ¨that this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.¨ all our dreams and goals are more real to me than ever before. i just want to finish with this thought. from Jesus the Christ Elder Talmage said most likely our savior our Lord Died of a broken heart. we are here to become more like him. to be more unifed. we have all fallen short. but we can repair his heart.
this thought from Alma 28

And thus we see how great the inequality of man is because of sin and transgression, and the power of the devil, which comes by the cunning plans which he hath devised to ensnare the hearts of men. And thus we see the great call of diligence of men to labor in the vineyards of the Lord; and thus we see the great reason of sorrow, and also of rejoicing—sorrow because of death and destruction among men, and joy because of the light of Christ unto life

we are unequal. we are not unified. but we can be. through his gospel. having a perfect brightness of hope. looking forward with one eye and one faith. healing his heart. go out and be stretched. experience life and help all his children be closer together.
