Where in the world is all this time going! Mandy, Hunter, Cade...all gone on thier missions! Time is too fast. Yes everything seems to slow down in The Gorge, but it is still moving too fast for me to catch up and take a breather! I swear that I have been working harder than I was during football, but I don't really know where in the world I am going! This week was busy doing mission stuff such as zone conferences and exchanges, but other than that, the world is just passing me by. I know that I keep promising information on the things that I am doing, but I can never think of anything that is new or exciting. The other day we did run into a man that would not believe any written word because the Doctrine of Christ is not written. Period. But, he said if you wanted to find the Doctrine of Christ, we need to look in the Book of Thomas (which Elder Gayler and I think is locked up next to the Ark of the Covenant in Area 51). It (the Doctrine of Christ) is written in the Book of Thomas but has never ever been written, including in the Book of Thomas. We tried to help him, but some people are just not quite ready for us yet (D&C 29:7). We did go tract out a town that one of the wards told us not to go to. We got a media referral, and so we had to go up there. Turns out that the people are very nice and we got a few potential investigators from our trip up there. We are hoping to go back there soon.
The story that Pres. Monson gave is very true. We can never look at peole superficially, becasue that is how they are looking at us. If we "live" the law of Moses, we will look at everyone the same way. But once we live the Higher Law, than we begin to see as Christ sees us. We see their sins but not in a condeming way. Cade was always good at that.
Love,
Elder Hamblin
