Subject: The mihzzherhee weeklee       This week has been pretty uneventful in missionary work,   but I've learned and read and studied some cool things this week.   About the effort we put in to our work, and the outcome of it.   Unfortunately I feel like a little bit of a hypocrite for sending these impressions   and not exactly living them the best I could, but here goes.  "Without labor and without working, doing, and acting, nothing will prosper.   Physical and spiritual growth only comes through action and effort.  Some people say what you put into life is what you'll get out,   I disagree with the literal truth of that. What I do feel is true,   is how fully we trust and how fully we commit ourselves to the gospel of Jesus Christ,   is how full our joy will be at the last day.   This principle also applies to the knowledge we obtain and the application of that knowledge in our actions.   In addition, whatever wisdom and understanding we achieve in this life   is directly dependant on how much we study and seek it out." ^  ^  ^  ^  Some of the spiritual impressions I received from the Holy Ghost,   words that haven't been spoken but I have felt. Something coming to me at the moment is that if you really badly want something in life,   don't be afraid to step forward into it, don't hesitate, but be aware of what you're stepping into.   Worry and doubt are normal things when some new challenge or obstacle comes in life,   so don't be so hard on yourself, just always remember, it will all be okay in the end,   and if it isn't okay then it isn't the end yet.
