November 19, 2007 - Can't Repay the Lord


Hi Mom!! Well, things are good. My comp is Elder Garner, and hes from Magna Utah. Hes a big kid, not fat.. but a pretty thick guy. Hes really cool. Seright is gone, but his memory.... and all the crap he left in the house, still lingers. We are pretty excited to get to work, and we have big plans. I just wanted to thank you guys for all the support that you give me.. the Heimuli family is the reason why Im working so hard. We had the oppritunity to listen to Elder Rasband talk to us, it was really great!! He said something that stuck with me, he said that many missionaries start the mission thinking, Im going to work hard to repay the lord for all the things that hes done for me. But after a long time in the mission, we realize that we CANT repay the Lord for his love, and all the blessings that hes given us. Its impossible. Because he always gives, even though we dont always repay. But, I started thinking that I can try and repay you guys for all that you hav done for me, and I can repay you Mom and Dad, not by paying YOU (because Im broke) but by giving to others. Because I have seen the example that you have given me, and I know that you would do the same. Love you Mom and Dad, for all that you do. Im love the Lords work, but I am excited to go home in six months! (: Love ya all!
