Join me on my spiritual day.

Sorry this is so long, but it's totally worth reading.  Guaranteed.

Today was freaking dope.  First of all, morningside.  That was sweet.  He said to be missionaries on the internet, so here's my "two cents" (Lisa).  Seminary was awesome.  We were talking about the different glories and all of that crazy stuff, you know the stuff that always blows your mind?  Yeah.  Anyways, the deal is that if we don't repent then we have to suffer what Christ suffered.  I'd rather use repentance.  Also, there's no such thing as burning in Hell, cause you don't burn there, it's just spirit prison.  All they do there is teach you what you didn't accept on earth...  It's like eternal high school, but you never get to go home.  That lesson made me feel good too.

Finally missionary splits.  We went out and no one would let us into their houses.  There was this old lady who was like "what do you want?!"  We told her and she said "We're not interested!  We're catholic!" (Ask me at school to do the accent, she sounded pretty funny)  And then we got a call about this guy who wanted to quit smoking, so we went to a church building and talked to him.  But first we gave him a tour of the building and explained all the paintings to him.  He loved those.  So we sat down and talked about the B of M for a while, and the missionary goes "you know that picture of the guy praying on the gold plates? (Moroni) This book is those gold plates."  That hit me so strong it was crazy.  My chest felt so big.  Then the investigator says "you know that warmth?  like, it's always with  my cause my angel is protecting me, but when I walked in here I just felt the warmth like 10 times as much cause of all the angels protecting this place."  It was a funny way of putting it, but that was definitely the spirit, and I loved it.  I realized that I take the spirit for granted so much because it's basically always with me.  Since we have it all the time, I think that we don't realize how much it's with us.  But if you stop for even just 30 seconds and realize what you're feeling and let it really engulf you, then you'll be able to feel the true spirit, as well as Christ's love for you.  Jesus Christ is the best, and he died for me.  I love him so much.  And now it feels weird not to put this, so I say this in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
