Nyob zoo. So I've now been at the MTC for 7 weeks, and I
leave 2 weeks from today. According to google maps, I could have walked to
Roseville and then back to the MTC 3 times. Or, if I would have found a bike
the first day of the MTC, I could have biked to Roseville and back 12 times...
but that's besides the point, I'll be there soon enough. Even though I've been at
the MTC forever though, I don't think I would trade it. We've heard from 4
apostles, with a 5th coming tonight, and I've learned so much.
One thing that I've really wanted to do while being at the
MTC is strengthen my personal testimony of Jesus Christ. After all, my purpose
for the next 2 years is to invite others to come unto Christ. So two things
that I've learned here: first is to have a goal. Come up with a righteous goal
that you want to achieve in the future, pray about it, and then decide how to
achieve that goal. For me, it was learning about Christ, it may be different
for you.
Then, you act on that goal. Some of the suggestions given by
speakers and apostles are these: I set a reminder on my tablet to go off at
important times throughout the day to remind me of the Savior and my goal. You
can't accomplish a goal if you don't remember what it is and why you want to
achieve it. Then, I studied the Book of Mormon, looking specifically for types
and shadows of Christ, the character of Christ, the life of Christ, and the
Gospel of Jesus Christ. By doing these things, my testimony that Jesus is the
Christ and my Savior has grown so much more than I ever could have thought.
So I invite you to think of something you want to
accomplish, pray about it, write it down, and follow through on that
goal.
... So in other news I'm still going to class every day. And
each week is the same schedule. Everyday is a little different, but there's
dejavu everyday. Like edge of tomorrow, with Tom Cruise... except no aliens
here. And no cool fighting scenes. Just fighting for the salvation of
souls.
Nothing much else to report on about my schedule or life.
Hmong is coming along, its still super hard, but I think I'm improving
everyday. Still making lots of mistakes.
Love you all, remember the Savior.
