So its really wierd to think that i should be in Mexico right now. Crazy huh? Time has just flown by and i can't believe that the summer is over and people are gettting ready to start school again. It sounds like the wedding and the blessing were really nice. Thanks for the couple of pics Jason. He's a little stud muffin just like his uncle. That was cool too that you got to see some missionaries from Mexico Northwest. That is crazy 12x12 with 8 million people. That is NUTS!!!!!!!! But what a tender mercy of the Lord too see and get to talk with thos Elders.
So Dad, I got two shots this week. They were the Hep A second shot and the Typhium (?) shot. It was $125. I am sending you home a claim form to see if you can get any money back. I hope you can!!!! Also, what's Jason's exercise program? haha what an oxymoron haha But seriously, I need something. The fruit is rarely good and not rotten. I have been eating loads of bananas but they just serve us a ton of startch here. Hopefully once I start walking down in Mexico I can get back down to the 140s.
Mom, could you see if they make a pocket Children's Song BOok in Spanish. I can get a big one here but I didn't know if they make a pocket size one. If they do could you get me one and send it to me. If not, just let me know and I will get the big one here.
Erin, Thanks so much for the pics of Kherington. It sounds like she is keeping you and Ryan busy busy busy. I can't wait to see what she is like when she is 3!!!!!!!!!!! And her hair has gotten so long!!! Crazy has how fast she is growing. When I get home she may be up to my chest! haha
Well word on the visas. We still dont have them and the travel office doesn't have any idea when we are going to get them. I have heard that my district won't get ours for six weeks but who really knows. Not me. I just continue to work hard and pray for my visa to come. I'm ready to leave, but I know I got something important to learn. It is all in the Lord's time frame.
So this past week in class we listened to an old MTC devotional by Elder Bednar. It was about the Spirit. He addressed the question of "How do I know if it's just me or if it's the Spirit?" He said "Quit worrying about it. Stop fusing. Stop stressing. Quit Worrying!" He said, "Be a good boy and a good girl, keep the commandments, honor and keep your covenants, and press forward. Your steps will be guided." It was such a great talk to here because I know that it is hard to know if its the Spirit telling you what to do. But as long as I am doing my best, being a good boy, striving to be obedient, and out working, the Lord will guide my steps. I wish you all could here it because it is so good. He talked about the importance of working and not sitting around and waiting. If we want to Spirit to work with us, we gotta be moving and working. And he said that in the moment we often don't know that it was the spirit, but as we reflect and other events happen in our life, we will come to recognize that it was the Spirit.
I also read a really good talk by Pres Eyring from OCt 2007 conf. called O Remember Remember. It was really interesting about how important it is to recognize the Lord's hand in our life. That is something that I have benn really trying to do the past couple of weeks. Is look for miracles everyday and recognize the Lord's hand in my life. It has been amazing to seen how much the Lord's hand really iis in my life. And I know that he is in your life too!!!!!
Well I will keep you posted about my visa as I find out what is going on. Thanks for all the prayers and letters this week. I really feel of all the love and support from you all. La iglesia es verdadera y tambien el Libro de Mormon es verdadero. Leanlo!!!!!
Con Amor,
Elder Glover
