Work is the Secret-First week in Rainier, WA

Hey everyone!! So my first week here in the new area was pretty good. It is always bad when you walk in and you have a baptism your first night in the area and then a confirmation the first sunday. haha just kidding. It has been way sweet so far. I love the people everywhere I go and really do want the best for them no matter what. I know that our loving Heavenly Father allows us the opportunity to have the spirit with us so that we can not only use it to benefit ourselves but also others and I get to see every day how the spirit blesses others. It's so wonderful.

This last week I have realized that work is the secret. In Preach my Gospel there is a quote by Jeffery R. Holland that talks about the biggest secret to missionary work is work. If you are out working and putting your message out there all day then our Heavenly Father will lead you to those people. The biggest secret to any form of success is work. If you truly apply yourself to diligent work. You will find success in everything that you do. It is very special to have the opportunity to share the gospel with others here in Washington.

Thank you all for the Birthday wishes this upcoming week! Crazy how time flied for sure,
but I know that it is time well spent as long as we are serving the lord. I hope you all have a great week. I know sometimes things don't go as planned but when they don't that's when we have to turn to our father in Heaven. I love you all. Have a great week. (:

Love,
Elder Reynolds
