Hello!
I'm running a little short on time, so this won't be very
long unfortunately.
This week was a good one. We've been investing a lot of time
and energy into the area and we're starting to see the fruits! It's always good
to see how good things can come of your personal hard work while also keeping
in mind your place in the missionary work as a whole.
I love Doctrine and Covenants 6:36 because of it's bold
simplicity. It teaches eternal truth with both clarity and power. The Lord
teaches commands us to "look unto [Him] in every thought," as well as
to "doubt not," and "fear not." We can clearly learn from
this that when we put our faith in the Lord, we need not doubt or fear. In
another light, however, what I have found in my own experience is that when we
exercise all our energy to "look unto" Christ, our doubts and fears are
expelled. A theme that modern prophets and apostles have taught recently is
that darkness cannot exist in the presence of light. When we "look unto
[Him] in every thought," how can we doubt? How can we fear?
Have a great week!
Love,
Äldste Cummings
