1) And now, these are the words of Ammon to his brethren, which say thus: My brothers and my brethren, behold I say unto you, how great reason have we to rejoice; for could we have supposed when we started from the land of Zarahemla that God would have granted unto us such great blessings?
2 ) And now, I ask, what great blessings has he bestowed upon us? Can ye tell?
3) Behold, I answer for you; for our brethren, the Lamanites, were in darkness, yea, even in the darkest abyss, but behold, how many of them are brought to behold the marvelous light of God! And this is the blessing which hath been bestowed upon us, that we have been made instruments in the hands of God to bring about this great work.
The joy of being used as an instrument in the hands of God is something so wonderful. We were able to help this family come unto Christ and we were able to see the light of Christ truly make a big difference in their lives. It all started two years ago when elders went to visit them, but at that time they weren't married. Now two years later on March 2 they got married and then on March 3 they all got baptized and were able to make the changes they needed to with the guidance of Jesus Christ and His spirit in their home. They are now a lot closer as a family and all of them are a lot different but in a way that is so so good. I love this family and to hear each of them bear their testimonies and love for the gospel after seeing them get baptized is something that I will never forget. I know that this church is true and I know that the only thing that this world needs is Christ and His perfect love. I know that we all need a little bit more light in our lives and I promise that it will come from Jesus Christ, reading the Book of Mormon, sincerely praying and participating in the sacrament every Sunday. He is our Savior and he wants to save us, and he does… I have seen it! I am so grateful for my mission and all the lives I have been able to see Christ change and it is something that I would never change. I love you all and hope that you are all doing good and loving life! Thank you for all your prayers and love!! Have a great week.
