Mommy :) heyyy!!! Everyone elseee heyyy :)
I AM STOKED to talk to you!!!!! So details.. I will be calling you
Christmas Eve to be able to set something up for CHRISTMAS... I am just
trying to figure out who for sure we are eating with.. Every member has
said we can come and use it so we are solid! :) SKYPE... not call..
SKYPE!!!! but I will give you a call later :)
So my new companion is named Elder Angulo, he is not new, he is
pretty old in the mission field but he is a really good guy. He has
definitely been helping me out with the Spanish, that's for sure haha! He
is originally from Venezuela, but he left there when he was like 9ish...
so he speaks English perfectly ha ha... But he only speaks to me for the
most part in Spanish.. its been tough, but its helping me improve. Just
pushing everyday to climb those challenges with EVERYTHING... I think
some times, normally as human beings, look at a mountain and realize
"wow.. that's big.." and it slows our progression... We know that we can
climb it, but we undermine our sense of optimism with pessimistic views
such as "it will take to long" or "UHHHH"... when the whole time we
could be CLIMBING... The challenge does not present itself, until we
present it... If we never look upon anything as hard, well heck... IT
WONT BE! I have had to apply this in every sense of mission work, and
that doesn't necessarily mean i have perfected it, because i still look
at mountains and get lost with them going so high that that top is
covered in clouds... But I know that if we just hold to the word of God,
and his peace, they will guide us to the top.
I have really been fortunate to be serving in the same location... I
LOVE LONDON... haha I really love it so much! its one of the most
beautiful city's! It has a HUGE downtown, but its got like a small city
feel! In a way its like SLC but its missing two crucial things... 1 the
temple and 2 THE MOUNTAINS... but other than that its pretty similar
haha! I really don't have too much to say this week... I'm really sorry
haha... but... I want each and everyone of you to know that God lives.
Jesus is in fact the Christ of whom prophets of old testified would come
to save the world. He is in fact REAL and REALLY LOVES US... In this
season we have been sharing a message of Christ... I want to share a
brief part of it with you...
Jesus Christ is the "The Life and Light of the world" He truly
lives and wants us to walk back on His trail and to be able to get back
to Him... Christmas is full of symbolism... Why do we get presents? Why
Christmas lights? Why is it called Christmas? haha... It all leads back
to Christ... His birth, His ministry... When they wise men came, what
did they follow? THE STAR... or the LIGHT.... What did they give Jesus??
PRESENTS.... It all makes sense... Christmas, is meant for us to be
like Him... I love you all... I hope each of you know that... I want
each of you to personally know that I cant express my love for you into
words because true love is indescribable... But my love for you, is in
fact NOTHING compared to what Jesus Christ has for each of you.. Always
remember the quote "What would Jesus Do?" Especially in this time...
Silly little quote that I learned in 2nd grade that I'll never forget...
"Good, Better, Best. Never let it rest, til your good is your
better, and your better is your BEST!" Be the BEST you can be. Never be
satisfied with OK.
MERRY CHRISTMAS <3
I Love You.
Forever and Always,
Elder Beyer :D
