Well, I have the first week of being a member of Lancaster 2nd Branch under my belt. Our membership was read in today and we were welcomed as new members of the Branch.
Although I didn't get much out of my meetings (Gospel Doctrine & Sacrament Meeting) today, I could still feel the spirit. Listening to speakers of a language you don't understand is kind of difficult. It's a good thing that my testimony is strong and that I have a desire to serve the Lord wherever He feels I am needed, or I would be tempted to bail. I do, however, hope it gets easier as time goes on. I'm so thankful that Church is only 2 hours now, instead of 3 like it used to be!
I keep telling myself these two things: "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." and "I can do hard things!" By exercising faith, keeping a positive attitude, and not giving up, I know I can be successful in this calling. Please, Lord, bless me with the gift of tongues! That is my prayer!
