I've been in the hospital for most of the week, not for me though! My companion, Elder Beach, got salmonella, and so I volunteered to stay with him. He was hospitalized for a few days, which meant we didn't do much. I did get to hear some interesting talks by President Oaks though! There is one that I loved called Love and Law, from 2009. It was so interesting, because it precisely answers a question that we get a lot from atheists, which is "If there is a loving God, why does he allow so many good people to suffer at the hands of wicked people?" Usually they reference terrible events like the Holocaust, or terrorist events. It also speaks about the importance of laws, and the importance of a loving parenting style that includes laws and punishments. It was very enlightening! Today, I got to go to the baptism of one of my investigators from Chosica! She had been listening to the elders for 4 years, and finally decided to be baptized! I was so happy to see their family unified! I was also able to talk to one of my converts from Chosica, and they are planning on getting sealed in August, just before I leave!! Incredible!
Love you all!
