I feel like I just wrote you yesterday. Wow time passes really fast. I have found that the harder I work the faster and faster time seams to pass. Before you can do anything the day is already over and your dead tired and ready for that bed. Dead tired but content. And that's what God really wants of us. He wants us to be dead tired but content. Or in other words he wants us to be at peace.
To be at peace we have to have two things in our lives, and we have to be doing them better all the time. Those two things are both related to faith and require much faith to do them. They are Obedience and Knowledge. We receive the peace in this world when we are the very most obedient to the knowledge that we have of the gospel of Jesus Christ. In so doing show our faith in God.
So many times we hear the question ¿Why are their so many bad things in the world? ¿Where is the peace? ¿If God loves us so why is everyone fighting all the time? The answer and solution to these and all the other questions that we face in this life all come back to the question ¿Am I being obedient to the knowledge that God has given me about the gospel? If so, and if all of us could complete with our personal duty to God relating to this subject, then we would all come to find the peace in this life and the life to come, World peace, Eternal Peace.
That is the reason that it is so important to search for a testimony about every aspect of the gospel around us so that we can then act according to that God given Knowledge.
Sounds like your using your summer vacation good. Keep it up!
