Break the Ice

My email will be short and precise. 

Repentance and forgiveness are great gifts that our loving Savior enabled us to have thanks to his infinite atonement and sacrifrice. It is the power to change our weaknesses and tendencies of mortal carnal humans into those of strength, self-mastery and godliness. (If you want to know what repentance is, I would refer you to my little sister, who gave an excellent talk in church the other week on the topic.) If we truly feel bad for something and have true intent to change, we have the BLESSING and PRIVILEGE to kneel down before our maker and decide to change our ways. It is awkward, and uncomfortable of course as we must change our habits and leave our comfort zone but if we do so and just break the ice in our own heart, the grace of our perfect loving Savior like a fire will burn inside of us, exstinguish our evil desires, and transform our lives.

We have been able to see the power of the great and all-encomposing sacrifice of our Savior and the restored Priesthood and authority of God spreading as a forest fire across the Earth, igniting a blazing faith and reliance in Christ leaving as a result beautiful fertile seeds of conversion which in turn, truly change for the best, the nature of people here in Kielce. 

We were in a visit with one of our investigators at the hospital, and a man by the name of Alex very humbly asked if he could join our discussions. Ever since then, he has recognized and began to apply the truth and power of this message of the restoration and the Gospel of Jesus Christ by accessing the power of the Atonement of our Savior through faith in Him and repentence and has been transforming himself into the man that he has always wanted to be. After our second visit with him he told us of a dream he had that night where an angel in white appeared to him and told him to slow down his life for a moment and listen to his mormon brothers. 

I believe with all my heart  The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter Day Saints is true, revelation exists today and that a loving God speaks to his children because he loves us. We just have to be humble and willing enough to listen.
