Week #71: El arrepentimiento diaria
Yooooo what is going on everybody! It was a memorable week out here in Salto!!! Great things continue to happen in the Lords vineyard like always! This week we had our interviews with President Dunford and they were great. I honestly wish everyone in this world could meet Pres. Dunford and just feel the love he has for every person he comes into contact with. He makes you feel like a million bucks and gives you the motivation to just be better everyday. He has taught me so much about the gospel in a very short amount of time, and I will attempt to match his love for the rest of my life.
In my interview with him this past week, he challenged me to do something, like I'm sure he did to many missionaries. It's daily repentance. I've heard that phrase many times, and taught it to many people, and I thought I understood what it was. Well, Pres. Dunford taught me in under 5 minutes what Daily Repentance REALLY is. Daily repentance is waking up every morning with something in mind that we can do better in, and then, pleading with God to give us the strength that day to complete our goal to be better. Throughout the day our specific goal should be on our minds, and we should constantly be attempting to be better in that aspect of our day. As the day ends, we should be doing some reflection thinking about what we did different that day to be better and complete our goal...and then before going to bed, we offer a prayer to God and do some follow-up with Him, by telling him how we did. Whether we feel accomplished or not, we need to communicate with our Father in Heaven and let Him know what we feel. As we accomplish our specific goals to be better everyday, we go to bed feeling accomplished and we feel the love of God in our lives more, because we are really trying to be better.
God never asked us to be perfect in this life, He only asked us to give a daily effort to be more like His son. I have started to do this just this week, and I can promise everyone that the blessings are real from daily repentance. Our Heavenly Father has pleaded with us many times through His Prophet Russel M Nelson, that we might repent every single day so that He can heal us and bless us more abundantly. Testifico del amor de Dios, que es real por cada uno de nosotros. Lo sentimos al arrepentirnos cada dia para esforzarnos a ser mas como nuestro salvador, pero nunca llegaremos a sentir este amor tan grande si no vivimos la ley del arrepentimiento.
