Week 46: Be a Believer

Sorry, but today we has Zone P-day, and we live an hour and a half away, so 3 hours immediately is just gone from our P-day. So I don't have time to write an extensive email. I love you guys. This week was good, but everything is a blur. I don't even know what happened this week. I've been listening to all of President Nelsons conference talks, starting in 1984, and that's been insightful. I've also been listening to some things from Hank Smith, and one I listened to today I really enjoyed. He talked a lot about what it means to be a believer. Being a true believer is a lot deeper than a lot of us think. We believe in Christ, but often when we are called to do something or make a change, we're like "well I believe, but that's too hard." And it just points out the difference between believing in Christ and believing Christ. When Moses and the people of Israel were wondering in the wilderness after fleeing Egypt, they could have gone to the promised land, but they were scared of the people there. And on Numbers 14:11, God asks Moses 

"How long will this people provoke me? and how long will it be ere they believe me, for all the signs which I have shewed among them?"
It's not too hard to raise our hands and bear testimony and say "I believe!! I'm a believer!!" But when you're called to act, do you still believe? Do you believe him and in his power to deliver?

Anyways, I love you all!! Work hard, be good, and learn to love Jesus
