I really like your thought on Christ, Dad! It is true!  Sometimes we think that we have to be ¨MACHO¨ and do everything on our own, even when we have the help of others! I was thinking along similar lines yesterday. As it happens every once in a while, the members who are assigned talks failed to show up (weird, right?) and immediately we, as missionaries, we get gobbled up and assigned talks as the meeting starts. I went to the scriptures in search of guidance, and found the scripture in Alma 7: 11 and 12. Christ suffered for so much more than just our sins!! If we go to Isaiah as well we read something similar! He suffered for our sicknesses, our infirmities, our temptations, etc! He PERFECTLY understands what a person with cancer feels like; he knows what is going on inside of a drug addict trying to overcome his addiction. It gives me comfort and joy to know that He understands me! In whatever I need, He can succor me! I challenged all of the ward members to think about that this week and focus more on the Savior!
I know that this work is the work of our Savior! I am His Representative here in Argentina! I love it! Thanks for being so awesome Dad! Enjoy this week with Grandma and Grandpa, and let Chris know that I love him and am proud of his hard work! Give my love to everyone!
