Hup Holland Hup? JULY 14

Well. The one game we as a mission got to watch, Nederland lost. That's what we get for breakin the rules of the white handbook I guess. OBEDIENCE BRINGS BLESSINGS. EVERY TIME. 


So, what do you do when discouragement sets in? When you realize the weight of your decisions on yourself and others? When your team loses? When your most reliable plans fall through and the people you thought you could count on turn against you? When you feel like everything is against you and you feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders and just about to crush you down to nothing? Powerless. Struggling. Alone. Sad. 


The mission, as life, is incomplete without these sorts of experience. It's like that quote about the refiner's fire, or that quote about how we either get grinded down or polished up in this stone crusher sort of a world. 


But these are the moments we become humble. We realize the need of God in our lives. The need of our Savior Jesus Christ, who is mighty and able to take our yoke upon him and suffer what we suffer. He is the only one we can count on. And His atonement is everything we need. 


I also hope that exercise and detoxing helps because that's what my plans are. 
well.
I love you all.
