Week 6

From Saijo
October 3, 2016

To everyone:
Real fast! Transfers are this week. So people are being sent off to different places in the Fukuoka mission. Lai Shimai from Taiwan is going to Ube, and Sato Shimai is going to be training a new missionary here in Saijo.

Saijo is good, and since coming here. I have/had over 50 investigators at one time or another. We have also seen a lot of miracles. Like a ton. I might be able to tell you one next time. Just bug my sister to remind me. :)

As far as Women's Conference goes. Uchtdorf's talk was wonderful. Faith does a lot, but we can not impose on another person's agency, or go against the Lord's Will. I really loved learning about that. Instead of what we think is best, it is better to align ones self with the he Lord's will. And seek for help on "Acting" on His Will. No matter what, you do, you can always rely on the Lord being right.

As a quick spiritual thought. I just wanted to bare testimony that if a person really wants to be Christlike. As described in PMG.

The best suggesting/invitation I give. is to serve people. And really mean it. If you are honest, have humility and see where you are lacking. By focusing on others, and serving them. You will grow in all attributes of Christ. After all, that is all Christ did. He served.

And by gosh. Just think if we had a God, a Heavenly Father who was selfish, and very "natural-man" like? Well it would be pretty darn horrid. A selfish, all powerful being. That didn't care about anything but Himself. Gaaaah, pretty scary.

With power comes great responsibility, and if we want to be like our Father in Heaven. We have to learn to be responsible. And we prove how responsible we are, based on what we do here on this Earth. Such power and knowledge is undeserving to those will abuse that kind of power.

Heavenly Father never gives us commands,based on this world. But for higher commandments, higher laws.

Just something to much on. And I am looking forward to watching conference. I am so jealous that you have already heard from the Apostles and the Prophet!

Much love
Freed Shimai

Thank you for your prayers as always. You are in mine.
