Divine Intervention 6-30-2025

Wow...this past week has felt unrealSomething from out of this world. The amount of growth and tribulation stuffed into this transfer, let alone this last week is unreal! I have no idea where to start so I'll just start off by saying since Monday our companionship was back to being rocky out of nowhere and it was pretty hard. There have been a billion times where it's just been enduring and I'd have a spiritual experience or a moment of reflection this whole week and learn more of who I am. Thursday I exchanged with an Elder who finishes his mission in a couple days and we had a good time and saw some miracles and tried to stay cool it was so hot haha. We were both drained by the end of it, but had an amazing member meal. That night at the end of the Exchange my companion and I counseled with the zoneleaders(they are in a trio) and wow what a unique experience. There were 5 of us in that apartment and the spirit was so strong. 5 differnt Elders all gathered together paths crossing in a very divine manner. I have felt the spirit so strong many times witnessing to me how all of these people gathered from differnt places in the world are here right now for a purpose and I have learned many beautiful things from the spirit given the circumstances. I have had a hard time the past little bit especially this transfer with companions, the area, and personal stuff, and this transfer has been the peak of it especially last week. My companion and I are so very different every single one of his strengths perfectly aligns with every single one of my weaknesses, and vice versa almost down to the tee.We both see the world so differently it's crazy and the unuiqe aspect of training him has been wild....absolutely wild especially with the fact he is waiting on a visa. Let's just say things have been chaotic for the past 6 weeks, but my life is forever changed. I have had the opportunity to learn from him and turn my weaknesses into strengths over time. I have been able to better understand God's Mercy and infinite Grace and Atonement. I have better understood how God sees me and have grown in my confidence. I have Grown in my love immensely for those around me especially those in my life. Although I'm not perfect nor ever will be I am finally understanding what it means to be perfect in Christ and part of that is understanding our own self worth as we are already bonded to Jesus Christ through Covenant. Iv struggled with the concept of giving my all feeling like I fail or am never enough but I will share an experience I had....out of a form of anger and rage(like we all have from time to time) my companion was yelling at me on how I have failed him as a trainer and how I suck and all of these things I recognized that I have given my all and that God knows I have and the spirit washed over me and witnessed that I have given my all and these circumstances are all part of his plan. Now I say these things not to paint my companion in a bad light because we truly love eachother and it was all part of God's plan. He has changed my life. I share this to echo that we all are worth so much in God's eyes and that his Grace is sufficient for us after all we can do. Sunday came and my companion and I had a deep open heart to heart and we were able to learn from eachother given our different strengths and weaknesses and that was super cool we have been able to unite on our differences because I kid you not we cannot think of a single thing we are similar on other than the fact we are both guys that like sports and hanging out with the boys.It was good though! We have transfers this week not sure if I will continue to train him but we shall see I have also had the opportunity to meet Bryan Johnson if you know him he's super famous I am good friends with his son Elder Johnson who is a Service Missionary and that has been cool. We got to play basketball for a couple hours today on pday and it was awesome. I love all of you so much you have all been in my thoughts and prayers this past transfer especially this past week and my life is Changed because of all of you Special shoutout to the Murry clan... The Williams Fam.... And last of all Uncle Sam Happy 4th of July I love you all "Stay sweet"- Elder Williams 3rd Nephi 12:6 And blessed are all they who do hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled with the Holy Ghost

God lives in the MTC 7-22-2024

 Wow, what an experience I absolutely love it down here. So far I have started almost every journal entry by stating, today was awesome. Everyday I have felt the spirit while simultaneously laughing so hard my district might think something is wrong with me I am in a trio companionship which is a little hard sometimes but I love them both and God knows I need both of them to keep me in check and to love them in different ways. The day I left I was blessed to have some random sweet old couple pick me up from the Salt Lake Airport and drive me to the Provo MTC because I could not figure out how to find the train system and that made my mom happy to know I had someone taking care of me. They even bought me lunch from a place called purple turtle  During one of my role-playing lessons between a paid actor and my companions earlier last week all 4 of us felt the spirit so strong me personally I almost cried.(still going strong yet I give it 2 more weeks) After the lesson ...

Welcome to the psych ward! 8-12-2024

  Eldersss, Sistersss Friends, and family I am just gonna start off by saying this was a Rollercoaster of a week. We had some highs some lows and some unusuals.  The week started off awesome after P-day that Monday we went knocking and this guy let us in turns out he has met with missionary's before and already knew the whole doctrine of Christ and has a testimony of it and prays everyday and listens to the book of Mormon every day and we both felt prompted to invite him to be baptized!! Turns out he was previously on probation and that's why he was taught everything but wasn't baptized he will need first presidency approval and will need to show commitment since being off poral so pray for him. His name is Daniel and he is really wanting to be baptized and I want to help him get there.  This week I also got to teach a super sweet 8 year old girl the doctrine of baptism and her family is nonmember but super supportive and I was able to help her pray to her father in heave...
