Dear Mom, Dad, and Eric,
The sun is setting on the sweetest and most lovely time of my entire
life. I've never been so happy. I'm never felt so accomplished.
I've put everything I have in me into my mission. I worked harder
than I ever thought imaginable. I love the Lord.
My mission blazed by on wings of lightening and I am so far from ready
to return home. I want to serve God forever. "O THAT I were an
angel, and could have the wish of mine heart, that I might go forth and speak
with the trump of God, with a voice to shake the earth, and cry repentance unto
every people! Yea, I would declare unto every soul, as with the
voice of thunder, repentance and the plan of redemption, that they should
repent and come unto our God, that there might not be more sorrow upon all the
face of the earth."
If there's anything I've learned from my mission, it's that I am to
serve God with all of my heart, might, mind, and strength for the rest of
eternity. I love the gospel. I just want to declare repentance unto
all for all of eternity. I never want this desire to be taken from me for
I know for a fact, "...for I know that he granteth unto men
according to their desire..."
I know that this gospel is true and I can never deny it. I will
take home with me a love of the gospel, my family, I will know my purpose, I
will have correct habits and desire. I take home much more than trinkets
and toys (although I do have a couple of those as well).
I will see you before you know it.
