Week 47 - I've Been Transferred Again!

 Howdy folks!

I am now in my new area! It's called Timber Creek, in Keller Texas. It's super cool, but small. It's also a bike area which is fun. This is the first bike area I have ever had on my mission so I'm definitely enjoying it. I'm also the District Leader here, and it was super fun to meet those in my District and Zone. My companion is Elder Marsh, and he is an awesome lad. He is from Salt Lake City and he literally knows who has won the championship games in the United States / Canada for Hockey, Baseball, Basketball, Football, Lacrosse, Soccer, and Rugby since their leagues were invented till the present day! What a stud. 

This week was great because I had the opprotunity to meet with some of the members in the ward and share a scripture with them. I really love seeing how the gospel of Jesus Christ truely blesses us and our families. 

This week I want to share a scripture. We share this one a lot as missionaries. It comes from Helaman 5:12.

And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.

I love this verse because it's so true. When we build our lives upon the gospel of Christ or the "rock of our Redeemer" we can stand steadfast againt the "mighty winds" of the devil. If we build on the foundation of Christ we will not fall. 

I hope you all will build your lives around Christ. I know that since I have, I have felt so much peace and comfort and love from our Heavenly Father, and I want everyone to feel that same way. 

I hope you all have a great week, and If you have any questions for me about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, shoot me an email! 

Love, 
Elder Delgado
