The Challenges are There for a Reason

(his photos wouldn't upload and he had computer problems, but here is a photo from President Hayes, at the baptism Saturday! And he said about his pants: "Yeah I may or may not have lost my baptism pants in my first area... The ones I've used these 2 weeks do not fit me at allll hahaha", hopefully he'll pick up some new ones soon like Mom asked him to)

Hey everyone! I don't really have time today, but I'm alive!

     I just wanna share one quick experience. Yesterday, a member invited us to go visit someone with him. When he was in the temple he had felt that we should go and visit them with him. After having a leg amputated, he's now fighting cancer. It was such a humbling experience to go share with him a little bit. We're going to keep visiting him and his family, but it just really reminded me to be grateful for all that I have. I just left the house feeling so dumb for the things I whine about, when I've got the opportunity to be here, healthy, working, while so many people like him don't have that opportunity.

     I know this Church is true, and that God Has a plan! I testified of that to him, and I do so to all. God loves us! The challenges are there for a reason.

Have a great week, everyone!

-Elder Henry
