How Have you Come to Know Christ?

Hey Everyone! 

 

So, incase you were wondering, no, I haven’t gotten my new companion yet. As far as I know, her visa has come through, but they are just waiting for the right time to send her over. I suspect that within the next few weeks she will come. Until then, I am still in the little town of Baganuur with Sister Petersen. It’s been a little hard here being in a limbo stage. I wasn’t really sure how long I was going to stay here. Originally, it was only supposed to be a few days. Its been three weeks now and all I have with me is a little duffle bag of clothes... haha. Good thing Sister Petersen loves me and is letting me borrow her things! But, because I had viewed this as such a temporary thing, I don’t think I was really giving my all to the work. But, this last week I made a goal to live each day like I was going to stay here for the rest of my mission and it has made a world of a difference. This week we have seen so many miracles and we have seen the Lord’s hand in the work! 

 

So, this week during my studies, I have been focusing on the attributes of Christ. I have realized that in order to become more Christ like, we need to first get to know him. Who was he? What did he do? What is important to him? How much does he love each one of us? As I’ve been on mission, I’ve grown to know who he is. I’ve felt Him by my side and seen His hands in the work. But, in my quest to become more Christ like, I want to learn more about your opinions. So, I have something to ask of all of you. How have you come to know Christ? How have you seen him in your life? Can you remember the first time you knew he was there? Do you know how much He REALLY loves you? I’ve been asking people here in Mongolia and I have heard truly miraculous things. And now I want your opinion! So let me know :) Send me an email. Or even better, A LETTER! haha. (Mom, can you but my email and mailing address in here?) I promise you that as we recognize the relationship that we have with our Savior, we will grow even closer to him. And your testimonies will grow brighter and brighter until the perfect day :) 

 

I love you all! Have a great week and I look forward to hearing from you :) 

 

Love, 

Sister Royal
