Elder Goss---W9-Obedience

Hey Everyone! I love you so much! I think about you a ton. 

The Mission has been going super well! We continue to teach Ana really well. I love teaching and I love seeing them grow. For Halloween, we went to the other Elders apartment, and played games. It was such a blast. 

I also love San Diego! It is so cool to be next to the ocean. What a blessing. 

My spiritual thought is simple. I promise you that there are blessings in commandments we don't understand or think there is no ample reward. To be 100% honest with everyone, before I came on my mission, I struggled to see the benefits of serving one. I knew I was going to, but I didn't understand or see. You could say I was blind. I couldn't vision the blessings. But I did obey, And now, I'm beginning to see the fruits of my efforts. I can't just come here and say "okay God, where are my blessings?" I knew that along with obedience needs hard work and eternal patience. But I'm already starting to see the benefits so early, and I can't wait to see more. Perhaps you're blessings may take longer, but obey and you will be blessed. I promise. 

A quote I heard here was this: "obedience brings blessings, but perfect obedience brings miracles."

Have a good week! 
Elder Goss
