Week 100 - Don't forget to...Keep the Faith!

Hey again!
I hope you have all had a sweet week full of miracles as we have here!! :) lots of cool things happening! This week has seriously flown by! Crazy. Some things that happened this week; last Monday, elder Dumas and I decided to go bowling, it was a BLAST! Haha it was pretty funny. We were the only people in the whole place. And we just had a good ol' time. And I smoked him. NBD ;) we took at 3 hour train up to Umeå for work overs with the Zone Leaders! Way good time. I got to see Elder Sirrine again which was cool! And I was able to go with Elder Simmons. We had a few lessons and had some time to find! It was a awesome last exchanges! Wednesday we took another 3 hour train ride back home. Haha we had district Council and it was THANKSGIVING!! What an amazing day. There is this amazing family in the branch. The mom is from Utah. So she invited us and the Branch Presidents family to Thanksgiving dinner. Man, that was good. Rolls, potatoes, sweet potatoes mmmmm. Good stuff. I miss America. God bless the USA. 🇺🇸 Other than that, normal week, lots of finding, spreading #LightTheWorld getting people excited for that! Fun stuff!

This week, I have been thinking a lot about time. How little time we really have! Time goes fast and if we don't use it wisely, that's when it goes even faster and we lose a lot of it! There is a line in the missionary Handbook that says, "Time is one of the most precious resources Heavenly Father has given you. The period when you are able to serve the Lord with all your time and all your efforts is extremely short. Use it fully and wisely. Such an opportunity is a privilege." I know y'all aren't full time missionaries like I am, but I think the principle can apply to everyone. We don't have a lot of time here in this earth really. From an eternal perspective, it's a blink of an eye. And we need to use it well! And as we do, as we prioritize and make the most of what we have we will be able to get more done! Feel better about our days and have more time to serve others. :) so make the most of now! It is a gift and that's why is called the present. :)

Well my friends, as usual, I hope you have a great week! Sorry for the short email again, but you can count on a hefty one next week. ;) Thanks for your prayers, encouragement, love, support. Y'all are the best. :) aaaand, don't forget to keep the faith!! Love y'all and miss you, but not for long!

Love,
Elder Baggett
