Much Better

Today's walk went much better. I was faster and I went farther than I ever have. I made it to my old offices. Kind of a mixed blessing there. Good to be able to walk that far and sad to remember all that happened there. It was good and it was extremely taxing and trying, the business I mean. I learned a lot and I don't want to repeat the same mistakes. What is the purpose of going through mistakes if we don't learn from them. Work went well yesterday. I was out in Tooele with my guy. Met with a person from the hospital out there, had lunch and talked. Not sure what we can do there. We also met with several people from the school district and it went very well. I think we are going to be able to do some damage out there. Went home teaching. I love doing that. It's nice to visit the members and feel of their spirit and love for the Lord. What a great blessing it is to serve and to be worthy to serve. I feel so blessed and not worthy of all that has been given to me. I listened to 22 chapters in the Book of Mormon yesterday; 2nd Nephi where Nephi quotes from Isaiah. Love that part. There is one part there that always touches me where it is repeated several times, "for all this His anger is not turned away, but His Hand is stretched out still". How many chances does our Father give us? He is always there for us. When we make mistakes, He has provided a Savior for us, our Elder Brother, and we can make our way back. Granted, it's not much fun and it is a hard road and it would be better to not make mistakes but we all do and the atonement is what allows us to return and to make this life, more than it ever could be, much better!
