If I could, I would title this picture: How God Makes His Ends Meet |
Elder Sae-Dan, last companion, was
the one to interview Sister Dtan and sister Beem. And who was the Office Elder who got their records? I didn't have enough time to do both, but I had a part in this
family's salvation even unto the end of the records - the Lord's way to answer
my prayers to have a part in all their baptisms. If I went home after this
transfer, my mission would be pretty much complete.
But miracles like this happen all
the time here in Asoke (Bangkok). I interviewed two more people for baptism
this week - Ting-tong (the little sister of TaTA who is crazyily Asian like her
sister) and Ali, the nicest Pakistani man ever who could hardly speak English.
"I have big heart" means that he love you. He has the personality of
a teddy bear and is so humble.
...definitely something I could use
in life. I've been struggling a bit with love and patience with my comp but we
are getting better. I just realize that whenever struggles come up, I have two
options: I can choose to be the big man or the little man. If I am the little
man and get upset or gratify my pride, I loose the spirit. But when I
decide to be the big man, I need to be the little man and become as a child -
ever tried doing it? it is super hard. But being around humble people helps you
so surround yourselves with good friends is my challenge to all of you this
week. Or, be that friend you would surround yourself with. How? Just do it.
Make a resolution in your mind to do so. That is the challenge I'm giving
myself too.
I love you all and I'll see ya soon.
Excited to skype soon! Happy "wan mae" very soon!
Love,
Elder Gibbons
