Hope of Israel

Hope of Israel, Zion's army,
Children of the promised day,
See, the Chieftain signals onward,
And the battle's in array!

Hope of Israel, rise in might
With the sword of truth and right;
Sound the war-cry, "Watch and pray!"
Vanquish ev'ry foe today.

February 24, 2014

Hello Everyone! :) This week has been a great week, and has really helped to build me up a lot! i know that my heavenly father is always looking out for me, and is always willing to help me if i ask him! So first week as senior companion down! haha :) it can be really kinda stressful being senior comp! but Ive learned so much already and i know that i will continue to learn and grow as i serve the Lord! This really is going to be a trail for me on my mission, because i have only been out for about 3 months, and im already senior companion! its really kinda crazy!  I know that trials strengthen us though, a lot of the time we done see them that way, but they really do! they help us to learn and to grow and become closer to our heavenly father. They strengthen us so that when we have more trials come, we have our foundation firmly built on Christ, we have a unshakable foundation of faith, that when the devil tries to bring us down, he has no power over us. There is a poem that President Monson quoted in one of his recent addresses that says
 
"Good timber does not grow with ease,
The stronger the wind,
The stronger the trees,
The further sky the greater length,
The more the storm,
The more the strength,
By sun and cold
By rain and snow
In trees and men
Good timbers grow"
 
Love you guys have a great week! :) remember trials can be a good thing! :)
