My Guilt Was Swept Away

Hey everybody! This week was good. It has been hot and humid, it amazes me how muggy it can be. The humidity just makes it feel like you can chew the air haha. Our apartment is super cold so going from that to outside is a serious heat wave but it is all good nonetheless. 

Right now we are teaching a little girl who is 7 that wants to be baptized in August after her birthday. It really tests how well you know the gospel when you have to try and teach it as simply as possible. It was also a good reminder to me how simple the gospel really is. She does understand a lot and is a super sweet girl. 

We had a lot of finding this week, we were able to go out a lot and we saw a lot of cool miracles. The area is getting there slowly, we have met a lot of cool people. Peterborough is a sweet place. Very diverse among the personalities of people. Super interesting. 

Spiritual thought comes Enos 1:5-6--5 And there came a voice unto me, saying: Enos, thy sins are forgiven thee, and thou shalt be blessed. 6 And I, Enos, knew that God could not lie; wherefore, my guilt was swept away. 

I have been studying a lot about repentance and forgiveness and I really liked that scripture when I read it. We can be free from doubt and not hang on to the feelings of guilt and shame and just be happy, just as we are meant to be. And another thing to learn from it is we can trust things from God. That is why it is so important to have our own testimony, so that we can have that assurance that we are on the right path.
