Wow...This last week was so good!
So elder Clifton and I knew that contacting was hard this
time of year, so we were praying and felt inspired to invite others to listen
to a Christmas message. We have been using the one about the ball that you had
sent mom. It has been great and so effective, we have seen many fruits come
from it! I love this time of year.
I feel so privileged to be able to testify of my Savior and
my Father this season! Some don't listen, but they have their own choice! It is
so hard watching and being able to discern people willingly deny the spirit. It
is heart wrenching, but I found comfort in this scripture, 3 Nephi 27: 14-15.
14 And my Father sent me that I might be
lifted up upon the cross; and after that I had been lifted up upon the cross,
that I might draw all men unto me, that as I have been lifted up by men even so
should men be lifted up by the Father, to stand before me, to be judged of
their works, whether they be good or whether they be evil—
15 And for this cause have I been lifted up;
therefore according to the power of the Father I will draw all men unto me, that
they may be judged according to their works.
I know that he was
sent by our loving Father, the greatest gift of all, and quite frankly the
hardest gift to give. I can’t imagine what it would be like to give my son as a
sacrifice, so that others can have the ultimate gift of love! I thank my father
for that very special gift! I love my savior!
Cool experience, I had Elder Greenberg in my district come
work with me in my area for exchanges. We went up to this house to drop off
cookies and a Christmas story for our investigators. They never answered so we
decided to leave. I felt the spirit whisper to me to go back. Without
hesitation we went back and knocked on the door...no one came. So we were
walking back to the car and I thought I heard a voice out back, as we walked
around the corner no one came or was there...it was weird. I thought it was
just me, until I felt so strongly to knock on the door again...They came to the
door! It was such a blessing and it opened my eyes of how much the Father is in
HIS work, I am grateful we followed the spirit! I love you all so very much,
Love,
Elder Loveless
