Blink Twice (Week 38)

Dang, good stuff this last week. And it kind of just went by in a blink of an eye. 

We saw a cool miracle as Raynee, who has been struggling with a smoking addiction, decided to let us take her cigarettes. We had an amazing lesson with her and a member joined us who has had similar addictions and she bore her testimony on the Atonement of Jesus Christ and it was so good. We taught about Fasting and how we'll fast on Sunday for her addiction to go away as we put our faith in Jesus Christ and she told us to take her cigarettes. So, we went home and burned them and her ash tray. Victory. 

We had Island Zone Conference and it was all about the Atonement of Jesus Christ. It was amazing and our Mission President talked about not only the cleansing power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ, but also the enabling power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and how we can become better and put off the natural man and become more Christlike. Christ’s Atonement literally gives us strength to become better; all we have to do is have the faith unto repentance (change).

Love you all!

-Elder Alec Shockley
