Thank you soooooo Much for all the prayers sent my way when I was sick.. Not only did I feel the strength from the prayers ya'll offered on my behalf, I was blessed with a quick recovery. But I was blessed with even more than just health.. I for some odd reason received the biggest surge of Spiritual Motivation! I got up and going, and I got going HARD! I'm studying better than ever.. (I'm even reading faster) I don't have the urge to sleep, I want to work more, better, stronger.(kinda like that kanye west song... harder better faster stronger) And I hope and pray to continue to keep the ball rolling! It just makes sense to me.. I'm not coming home anytime before the end of these 2 years, so why not learn, work, play, and take advantage of EVERY SECOND that I am given.
HAPPY EASTER!!! Wow, I wish all of you could be able to focus on the savior as much as I am allowed to. Especially in a time like Easter when we are to remember the Redeemer of the world, the life that he lived and that he continues to live today! That is my testimony, that Christ lives today. That through him, we are able to find happiness is this live, and in the life to come.
Easter was weird without my family that's for sure.. It was the 1st Easter Egg hunt I've ever missed I'm almost sure of it. I was thinking about our Easter traditions and how great they are. I remember helping grandma Howard fill the Eggs one year when I was probably like 10 years old. I was sure to put all the money in certain eggs that I wouldn't forget... Lets just say that was a successful year for Little Buck Howard! Sorry Cousins! But I sure thought about all of you a lot.. I know you had a good time with the family and enjoy the time together. Easter here was just a normal Sunday as far as the work goes, but there is just a special energy about it. a focus. Its too bad much of the world will only have the focus on the savior a few times a year like with Easter. When in reality you can live your everyday life with Christ as your focal point.. every decision you make, every work that you do, all that you live for can be Christlike.
We are working hard for the 2 new baptism dates that we have for the 21st of April. I'm super excited and I have already seen an immense amount of change in these two individuals lives. They are building faith in Christ, and applying it into their lives!
Love Elder Howard
I guess there was some confusion with my address.. It will always be the same for packages and letters.. send them to the office, and they make sure to send them to us where ever we may live. (if it is necessary the shipping code is 1240000 and the phone number of the office is 56992204269)
