Tender Mercies Due To Faith

Greetings loved ones!

This week has been absolute chaos, and this next week we have more on our plate than we could say grace over. We have to clean 2 apartments out. We have to move into a new apartment. We have 8 appointments. One Zone Conference. We have 2 baptismal interviews that need to be done. All of this needs to be completed by Thursday. We have no idea how it's going to happen, but it'll happen. 

We have been so blessed with people to teach here in Lynnfield. My testimony of the Lord giving us tender mercies due to faith is growing stronger and stronger everyday. It is remarkable how great our days go when we are following the promptings of the spirit and do what He wants us to do.

We are excited this week. Due to the great experience of serving with my boy, Elder Anofils, we were able to start teaching a Haitian Creole man. Haitian's can speak faster than Jimmy Johnson can drive a car. Excited to see how that opportunity goes. We continue to have great spiritual moments as we teach a bushel-full of people who are prepared to hear about the gospel. The exhilarating feeling of doing everything you can to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ is an experience that cannot be replicated in any other way. My trials have also strengthened my testimony that this is the Lord's kingdom on earth. The world has drifted away from the basic fundamental principles of self-discipline and hard work. Any way to do less work for more gain is favored. The injustice we are doing to ourselves. Some might disagree with this, but taking the easy out will usually always catch up with us. Working hard is not easy, but we grow more under pressure as opposed to coasting. We all fall into the trap of coasting, but it is important to realize the difference between relaxing as opposed to staying idle. Our attitude in life depends on how we look at ourselves and, more importantly, realizing how Heavenly Father looks at us. We are literally sons and daughters of Heavenly Father. The motivation we can receive from understanding this will always help us fulfill our potential. 

Hope everyone has a great week! 

With love,

Elder Tait
