Transfer time

Today is transfers!! I have sad but yet exciting news!! I'm leaving Lexington and opening an area that was closed months ago! Grand Island!! :) aka GI! I'm so sad to leave Lex though. I love it here and I love the members. It'll be hard, but it's all the Lord's will. Packing sucks as a missionary! :P Grand Island from what I have heard from all of the other Elders is an awesome area!! Crazy thing is, it's the biggest area I've ever been in. There is maybe 50,000 people there lol. Supposedly there were 7 investigators at church last week, so we have a lot to do! Haha, Elder Meza said that place is a gold mine, and that the field is literally ready to harvest there. The power of bearing your testimony is amazing. I've learned that a lot recently and yesterday that popped into my head. Many people think that we have to prove what we have. Yes, we have a great evidence of the Restoration, being the Book of Mormon. We're not here to prove though, only to declare. That's the way the Spirit wants it done and so we declare it by bearing our testimonies. I know the Book of Mormon is true! I know it was written for our day! I know they knew of what we faced even 2,000 years ago! I love this gospel! It blesses me, and raises me, and although sometimes I feel tested and stressed, through the Atonement of Jesus Christ I can be strengthened and move forward! I know Jesus Christ lives and is my Savior, and is the Savior of the world. His Atonement is Real. It's true, and is all powerful to those who humble themselves and sincerely repent. I know we have a living prophet on the earth today! :)
