God Has a Plan for Everyone

February 6, 2011
I was sad to hear about Ryan and Toliver. That is awful. I'll take care of some business first. Ya, the Japan trip is looking a little tough after being home for about 10 days. I don't think we should do it. It would be better for me to have more time to plan it out more thoroughly. To tell you the truth I have had some trouble focusing lately. When my thoughts wander they are about things after the mission a lot. Not a good sign. It isn't a big problem but it could turn into one. I don't want that to happen. I think that it is a miracle that last week Elder Nielson brought up going to BYU. I need to study Japanese to pass the test and this could help me out a lot in the long run. I'm sorry that I won't be home for too much but looking at how much it could help me, I don't want to miss out on the opportunity. I could even work for Import Auto again maybe. I can't really explain why but for some reason, it just feels right. I'll set up an interview with President McIntyre soon and get it done. This week was awesome! Tei came to church and loved it. He is praying everyday and he commited to follow the Word of Wisdom. He is really prepared to hear the gospel. He can only meet on Sundays because his job is Monday through Saturday from 8 to 8. Pretty rough huh. He is awesome. I don't have a ton of time today but recently I have been reflecting on my mission. I love it! I love these people and desire their salvation. The other day I met a lady on the street and I saw light in her eyes. She had never been married and she is handing out tissues for a living. It was sad and I know that God has a plan for everyone. I love you all and I really love the mission. Christ lives and he atoned for us. Until next week. I love you!
