Another New Area!

Well another new area and another new companion. I'm now in Phoenix, right on the edge of the mission boundaries. We share the ward with a companionship of sister missionaries so it's nice to not cover the whole ward. There is a lot of work to do here for sure, and things have been pretty busy. A lot of people here seem to want changes in their lives and are sincerely looking for something more. We have a couple people who are wanting to be baptized in mid February so it will be cool to see how they progress over the next few weeks.

Something I guess I've realized recently is just how much God is in the details of our lives. He truly does know us and knows what is best for us. Everything that I have learned and experienced over the last couple of months has kinda paved the way for what I'm doing right now: things that make me better able to help Him accomplish His purposes here and to help me serve those around me. It all comes from turning our will over to His. When we learn to see what He sees and to do what He wants us to do, I know we can feel His approval in our lives. We can know that we are on the right path and that He really does love each of us, individually. 

I want you all to know that I love each of you, individually. I know God loves each of you and knows what is best for you. I know He will tell you what is best for you, if you take the time to listen and find out what He wants for your life. 

I hope everything is going well for y'all. Take care and God bless,
