Naranja!!! (orange)
Well hello from the place that just seems to get hotter and hotter by the day! But its just part of the mission just being hot! well this week was good. Naranja is what we hear everyday because there are always people selling Oranges and naranja is orange in Spanish. Naranjas naranjas naranjas!!!! so ya it gets a bit old after you hear it following you down the street all day haha, but all good . Elder Mora is going home Wednesday and well i have no idea what is happening with me so well its just part of the experience but that's just fine with me i know that whatever happens it will be the will of the lord.
So this week was a pretty good week. We had a baptism of a guy i told you about the first of the year, Jun. He was in the accident and well he can pretty much walk now. But we talked to him and he wanted to be baptized. i was like wait really? no way! you really want to be baptized? i was thinking in April but no he wanted to be baptized as soon as we could. so well that's what we did. We baptized the man and well he will always remember the day he was baptized that he did it all and he has a strong spirit. man!!! well anyways. it was good.
We are doing good here. just doing really well. its hot but ah who cares, we see as it says in little rascals, a Man eating Chicken!!!. That's What i remember always when i am eating chicken. so ya its actually a lot of chicken and well fish there is a
lot of that and lots of Pineapple water and oranges and tan marino. so all good.
Well this week ill share an Article from President Monson from this months ensign. Peace be still. it is actually one of my favorite hymns. when it says this:
Whether the wrath of the storm-tossed sea
Or demons or men or whatever it be,
No waters can swallow the ship where lies
The Master of ocean and earth and skies.
They all shall sweetly obey thy will:
Peace, be still. Peace be still.
but the real reason is because of the story behind it. In Mark 4:36 -41. When he rebukes the wind and the sea and the part in 41 when it says. "What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?" we know what manner of man this is, the only person in the world who cared enough for us to sacrifice and die for us. that is the message i read in Jesus the Christ and read in Mark this week and also taught about the man who can detect a spiritual prompting -President Monson. He has trained himself to know what to do and that is amazing!!! great talk.
