Be prepared

WHATS UP!!

I hope you have all just been sitting around your computers to get this haha. . . I'm just kindling. Its cool and yeah I don't really know who all this is going to but hey its cool.

That's cool to here you are doing missionary work. One thing that everyone can do to make missionary work a little better and easier is to pray for missionary experiences. Ask the lord to put those people in your path who have been prepared to hear the message of the gospel. It makes a huge difference. Also what comes along with that is being ready when the moment comes. Don't be ashamed of the gospel, make it a part of who you are. We always say that probably the only person that we as missionary's look cool to is god. . . and that's all that matters. You need to keep your self worthy and ready to share what you have come to love so much and hold so close to your heart. I always think of how much this church has helped me. . . and how much it can help every person I meet. Remember, the field is white all ready to harvest and lo he that thrusteth in his sickle with his might, the same layeth up in store that he perisheth not and bringeth salvation to his soul. . . salvation to the soul is never a bad thing haha.

This last week has been awesome. We are working with a Muslim lady named Sadiqa. She's way cool, and we totally committed her for baptism. So next week will be awesome. We are working with a lot of other people too, so it has been good. . . Yeah this is a very stubborn area but the work is progressing none the less. As we work hard and do what the lord asks of us, we receive blessings! It is just that easy. Like that talk that was given in conference. (it was one of my favorites) where he talked about how we need to follow Jesus Christ. . . it is the only intelligent thing to do. . . a different way, any other way, every other way is just madness. I love that. But yeah we are working hard and have a lot of good times too. Elder Pond is great to serve with. We have a lot of fun but still work really hard. It makes the day go by way to fast haha.

I love you all!
LOVE!
Elder Colton Bragg
