So I really don't have any specific experiences this week, I'm pretty sure! It was a good week, definitely a learning week! hahah. It was kind of tough! It's pretty hard finding people that want to talk to us, this time of year. We are trying to do our best, and I think soon we will find someone who is ready for the message that we are carrying!
A big question in a lot of peoples lives are "Does God love me?" or "Does He even know who I am?" Well I can testify to you who read this that He does! I looked back on my life this week and realized how very blessed I have been! We as people make a lot of mistakes, and I am no exception. And I don't know why Heavenly Father blessed me so much throughout my life, but I can see His hands throughout! Being here in Albania, has also made me realize how easy I have had it throughout my life and even though I keep messing up and making mistakes, even small day to day ones, He is Always there to help me and lift me up! Take yesterday for example! We couldn't set up any lessons, and so we contacted in the cold windy rain, and a member walked by and saw that we were cold. She returned home and got me a sweater and a scarf. It was an incredible act of kindness and it made me stop and think, wow God must love me, because I don't deserve this, and yet He gave it to me.
So if any of you are having a rough time, or are wondering if God loves you, say a pray. I promise you with all my heart that He does. He loves us so much that He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for us. He watched His only begotten Son, suffer more pain than we can even begin to imagine and so publicly and mercilessly be murdered. He did that so that He could have us back. God and Jesus Christ are very real and the love us, more than we could even hope to comprehend.
I love you all and I hope that you have an awesome week!
Love,
Elder Simons
