The work is interesting here. There are many many receptive people but something that is a problem is that many people work in companies of oil deeper in the jungle. They work 20 days, then have usually 8 or 10 days off. So it makes it really hard to find and be consitently working with them.
We had an interesting lesson this week
that taught me an important principle. An investigator had asked us why
Joseph Smith does not show up in the Bible. And it was a very good
question, at first we did not know what to say. But then the thought
came to mind. "The Lord wants us to walk by faith, not by knowledge."
The Lord asks us to have the faith to be able to find out for ourselves
if Joseph Smith was truly a prophet of God. For that reason he is not
talked about explicitly in the Bible. I know that he was a prophet of
God and that he was the instrument in God`s hand to restore this
church.
Thank you all for your support and prayers. I love you!
