I don't know if someone told you today but God Loves you : )

Alright so I had an eventful filled week. So we had Zone Conference this week and I was able to perform a musical number on the Guitar it was the primary song When He Comes Again. And I was pretty excited to play this, a little nervous and so I go up set up a chair, sit down, take a deep breath, and then I start to play and your probably thinking oh I bet he played that piece so beautifully well you are wrong. Its like in Singles Ward "you ever heard of the hindenberg" and I crashed and burned. My hands were shaking so bad I started to play and I couldn't so I started the piece and stopped playing 5 seconds in so I apologize and try again and I continued to shake so bad I got like 5 notes in and had to stop and so I take off my suit coat. And try one more time and I can't. Then after the 3rd time I'm about to just leave the stake center. Then the AP Elder Judd (bless his heart) said "would it help to sing along" so I said "yea it might" so I start to play and they start to sing and I just kept starting and failing and trying to find my place but I finished the song. I endured to the end. No matter how many times I messed up. Then after Sister Hansen talked about how that was her favorite hymn and was so happy when we were able to sing it. Then Lunch hit and President and Sister Hansen talked to me (and again let me just tell you they are so nice Holy cow) and President Hansen told me an experience of him on the piano doing that and made me pinky promise that I would at least perform that song in front of my district. (Yea my mission president made me pinky promise) this experience reminds me a lot of the atonement. I failed so many times, I failed over and over and over again and I finished the race, I know that is exactly what it is on this earth we are going to fail so many times and all we have to do is try again until we finally finish the piece or our time here on earth and "His lord said unto Him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord." Matt. 25:21

I Just want to Testify that God does truly know all of His children. I can Testify that the Atonement of Jesus Christ is there for all of His children and that you can never go lower than His light. I love the Gospel of Jesus Christ so much and the many blessings it has brought into my life and the lives of those around me.

Wisconsin Culture: a lot of people are on their porches so we actually found a new guy on His porch he was a vibey dude he heard our message and gave me a banana and some water it was sweet!
