I've got a new companion, a very good friend of mine, elder Bagshaw.
Wasnt too long ago he and I predicted this would happen, although we thought it would be at the end of our mission, not so soon.
The summer is beetin doon this week, I'm ready to lose. Just kidding. Today is the high, and it's pretty strong.
I can totally feel the motivation to write big great emails just plummet. I'll share a quote I found this week that is just amazing.
This is from the Teaching of the Presidents of the Church.
President Kimball, chapter 2.
"If all the sick for whom we pray were healed, if all the righteous were protected and the wicked destroyed, the whole program of the Father would be annulled and the basic principle of the gospel, free agency, would be ended. No man would have to live by faith.
If joy and peace and rewards were instantaneously given the doer of good, there could be no evil—all would do good but not because of the rightness of doing good. There would be no test of strength, no development of character, no growth of powers, no free agency, only satanic controls."
I believe that with all my heart, and all its implications.
Study the scriptures, it will open your mind.
Elder Fisk
