You´ll
have to tell me if my English sounds weird. I seriously can´t speak in English sometimes because the words come out sounding funny.I´m
literally turning into an Argentine haha. Just kidding. When summer
hits my hair gets super blonde and my face gets super red. Everyone
realizes that I´m not Argentine haha. Thinking about this week, I would
like to tell you about some personal experiences and personal
progression that I´ve had this week. Looking back on just a week of
progression, I realize just how much I love the mission. It´s
incredible!
We
had interviews with President Cifuentes on Thursday and it was an
incredible experience. We talked about a lot of things that filled me
with the Spirit. I can feel his love and it brought me closer to the
love that the Savior has for me. After I asked him some questions he
told me that he had some questions for me. I was ready. Word for word,
he asked me the questions of worthiness for a temple recommend. I
haven´t heard these questions in quite some time and it filled me with
the Spirit of the Lord. I can´t tell you the feelings that I had and
that I felt. I confidently answered each one of the questions and
halfway through the interview, the Spirit penetrated my heart even
deeper. I started to feel like I was in the temple. Tears came to my
eyes and I felt for a moment that I was in the Celestial Room. The power
of the Holy Ghost is incredible. I left the interview feeling like I
had walked out of the temple and I began to realize just how much I miss
it! Thinking about the interview, I realized just how important is to
have a temple recommend always and to be worthy of it. If we are worthy
of a temple recommend now, we will be worthy of a place in the Celestial
Kingdom in the future. The Spirit filled me that day and I was filled
with desires to do good.
Another
experience that I had this week came from counsel from President
Cifuentes on how we can elevate the Sabbath Day in our lives. How
understanding the sacredness of the Chapel and treating it with more
reverence would help us feel the Spirit more during the Sacrament and
throughout the day. I put it to the test and I can say that I was filled
with the Spirit during the Sacrament. I´m trying to treat sacred things
with more reverence. I know that as I do it, the Lord will be more
willing to bless me with His sacred gift- His Holy Spirit.
I
hope everyone is doing well. For now, the weather is great- we haven´t
hit the heat yet. I hope everyone can become closer to Jesus Christ this
week and recognize the power of the Spirit in your lives. Thanks for
all the love and support!
Love, Elder Bosco II
