Elder Parker Beck: Lights

9/26/2022

Hello and welcome to my Ted talk

I made it to Stoughton! We have like 3 people we are teaching it is great : ) The first lesson that I had with our Friend Alex (like the only person that I have taught in the last 5 days haha) we were able to put him on date for Baptism and Alex is awesome he's been to church like 10 times. Why have they not put him on date for baptism earlier?! It was crazy to hear. I can definitely see him as a member its way cool to see that.

My new companion Elder Ferguson is a duplicate of one of my past companions Elder Truscott it is the weirdest thing ever haha. He's a fun guy

I had a way awesome experience so we were actually teaching Alex yesterday after church (also we taught Elders Quorum as well that was fun) and we had another lesson with Alex and we had our lesson with the stake patriarch brother Reyes and he was talking about how during your mission you get to know who God is because you are serving him and surrendering yourselves to him. And through serving God I have come to know Him And that is one of the reasons why I want to make it to the celestial kingdom and receive exaltation is to please God. And I have never thought of it that way. I definitely want to please God.

I know that just as how the name Beck or Adamson : ) comes with so much power. What comes with even more Power is being a son of God. I love this scripture in the Moses 1:12-13 "12 And it came to pass that when Moses had said these words, behold, Satan came tempting him, saying: Moses, son of man, worship me.

13 And it came to pass that Moses looked upon Satan and said: Who art thou? For behold, I am a son of God, in the similitude of his Only Begotten; and where is thy glory, that I should worship thee?"

I know that we are all daughters and sons of God. Don't ever forget that and the power it brings : )
