We got some more investigators this week!! Hurray. Sister
Lowry and I managed to get three member referrals on Sunday. The Area
Book has been a huge blessing. It is one of my favorite tools to use for
finding people. So far, my favorite way to find people has been on the
densha (train). I love going up to people and striking up a
conversation to build their trust. I love having a Japanese last name
because it is such a good conversation starter. Then, I love to share a
brief message and my testimony of the gospel. Sharing the gospel is a
blast!!
In Moses 7:62, it says, "And righteousness will I send down out of heaven; and truth
will I send forth out of the earth, to bear testimony of mine Only
Begotten; his resurrection from the dead; yea, and also the resurrection
of all men; and righteousness and truth will I cause to
sweep the earth as with a flood, to gather out mine elect from the four
quarters of the earth, ..." "Righteousness" in this scripture can be
interpreted as missionaries. "Truth" in this scripture can be
interpreted as the Book of Mormon. Right now, I am focusing on using the
Book of Mormon as much as possible when I talk to someone about our
church. The Book of Mormon is incredible. If you don't have a testimony
of this divine book, today is a good day to get one. If you do have a
testimony of it, today is a good day to strengthen it. Is the Book of
Mormon true? Well, it is either true or it is not. If this book is true,
then Joseph Smith was a prophet of God, our Heavenly Father and Savior
live, revelation is real, and our church is true. Our entire religion
hinges on whether or not the Book of Mormon is true. I know it is true!!
I love the wording in Moroni's promise (Moroni 10:3-5). I think it is
interesting that it says to ask with a sincere heart and real intent "if
these things are not true." I know this is the Lord's work. He
is at the head of it. He prepares people in His own time, and in His own
way. When we true understand the importance of aligning our will with
His, we will see miracles!!
Remember, it's as easy as ABC: Always Be Consecrated.
