Alii, everyone I love with all my heart!

Wow, the internet is SOOO BAD TODAY…

But the week was good!

“J”s still struggling but we finally got him back on track yesterday. He even came and did some service with us for our other investigator.

“JM” is also preparing for baptism again so keep him in your prayers that this time he will finally decide to go through with it.

Life is good. God is good. The work is good!

Recently, we have been teaching people that seem to get really down about small things. (Like the stuff that used to get me down in high school.) But, every time I tell them the same things that my father told me. “20 years from now you are going to realize how ridiculous this problem was and regret that you let it bother you.”  Life is too short to worry about the little things. Why focus on the negative when there is so much good in the world.

You do not have to have a great day… to have a GREAT DAY!

It is all up to you, and what kind of day you decide to have, when you get up in the morning.

Life is good. God is good. He promises us eternal happiness, if we do what he asks. A moment of sadness or a setback is not worth the loss of eternal bliss.

May we all press forward with smiles on our faces, because the church is true. Jesus overcame the world, it is truly a great day!

Always remember to count your blessings!

With Love,

Elder Rupp
