This week in my New Testament class we read and discussed Christ's judgement and trial before His death. There are many events that go on in the few hours and days leading during His trial. In John 18 we read about Peter's "ultimate wake-up call". This describes Peter denying Christ 3 times. He is very surprised when Christ testifies of him denying Jesus three times before the cock crows. Peter, at that time, does not believe that this will happen because, well, how could it?! He was Christ's right-hand-man, His beloved friend, Christ was His mentor and teacher and someone whom he loved. However, we all know that while Christ is being tried, there are indeed three different individuals who come up to Peter and accuse him or ask him about being associated with Christ. Peter, most likely out of fear for his own life, denies these claims and questions one by one, without even realizing that he is fulfilling the prophesy which Christ gave only moments before.</div>
<div style="background: transparent; border: 0px; font-size: 13px; margin: 1em 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
How often do we portray Peter in this act as to avoid the pain or guilt that comes with sin or the humiliation that comes with defending our beliefs in front of our friends? I never want to be the one to deny Christ because I know He lives. I don't believe I have ever done this intentionally, however sometimes without even knowing it, we remove His name from our heart for a moment and ultimately deny the testimony we have of him. </div>
<div style="background: transparent; border: 0px; font-size: 13px; margin: 1em 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Luckily, repentance is a huge part of the gospel and we are able to be redeemed from these moments by a loving and kind Savior. He love us so much and was willing to pay the price for us to have happiness and to overcome difficulties in our lives.</div>

We learn in John chapter 15 verse 26 that The Spirit's role is to testify of Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father. "But when the comforter is come whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me." We also learn from this scripture that the Holy Ghost not only gives a testimony of the two but he also acts as a comforter. Reflecting on the tragic event that has happened at BYU today, I can't help but express the importance of the gift of the comforter that Christ left with us as he descended back to the Father. Imagine that, we have a member of the actual Godhead with us as a constant companionship and guide during times of trial. Through Christ's atoning power, The Spirit may lift and comfort us when we feel hopeless or in deep despair. With all of the many challenging and chaotic things going on in our world today, The Spirit is something so contrasting in nature. He is peaceful and quiet. In John 16:33 Christ says, "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." Through Christ's love and sacrifice on our behalf, we need never to feel that there is no hope left, or that we have hit rock bottom and there is no where to turn. Christ gave us His spirit in hopes that during these trying times we might look to Him and live. No matter how difficult life can be at times, there is truly nothing we cannot overcome through Jesus Christ our Savior, Lord, and Redeemer.</span>Tessa Marie Hadleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10433457570578479602noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2497452994248300949.post-90551119572711662012018-11-19T20:06:00.001-08:002018-11-19T20:06:16.482-08:00<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
This week in my New Testament class at BYU we studied and discussed Matthew chapter 25 which gives a few more parables that Christ told as he was on the Earth. First He gives the parable of the 10 virgins. In this story there are 5 "foolish virgins" and 5 "wise virgins". Upon preparing to meet the bridegroom for the wedding, the 5 wise virgins "took oil in their vessels with their lamps." (v. 4) and the other 5 did not. They did not anticipate the long wait that it took for the bridegroom to arrive, therefore the lamps of the 5 foolish virgins ran out of light because they did not bring extra oil to fuel the light. In verses 8 and 9 it says, "And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you..." </div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
This parable can be related to our day; many things that are acquired through preparation ahead of time can not simply be given to others. The story of the 10 virgins holds a lot of symbolic meaning. The lamps may represent a member of the church simply going through the motions without any real thought or intent while doing so, while the oil may represent true and deep and lasting conversion that another member might experience. This lasting conversion may be the means to get through a difficult experience without loosing hope and faith in the process. Someone that has not gone to such great lengths to keep close to Christ may have a lamp with no use because there is no oil to fuel the burning light. </div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
This was a great parable to study for me personally because I am a big procrastinator by nature. I always wait until the last minute to do something important. However our Heavenly Father does not want us to procrastinate in temporal or spiritual matters. He wants us to enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing we are prepared. Prepared for that big exam next week, prepared for a happy eternal marriage, prepared to give a priesthood blessing, prepared to receive spiritual promptings for someone in need, prepared to meet Him again.</div>

In Christ's final week of life, Mary uses an entire year's salary worth of expensive oil to serve Christ. Upon realizing this, the apostles become upset with Mary because they feel that the oil could have been used for more worthy purposes like feeding the poor and needy. Judas, especially, is upset with Mary expresses these feelings of frustration toward her. Christ stands betwixt Mary and Judas' pointing finger when he responds, "Let her alone; against the day of my burying hath she kept this. For the poor always ye have with you; but me ye have not always," (v. 7-8). </div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Judas does not take Christ's correction as Peter has done many times. He becomes bitter about the correction and either later that day or only a few days after, trades Christ for money. </div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Often enough, we may respond to correction in this manner. Especially when we feel that we are doing something right or worthy. However, Judas was completely missing the mark when he pointed out the faults of Mary. We can either chose to become bitter and offended when we are corrected or we can be more like Peter who was so willing to submit His will to Christ's and take the correction to change for the better.</div>

In Luke Chapter 10 two sisters, Mary and Martha, are presented to us in a way that highlights their differences in personality. Upon Christ coming to visit the two sisters, Martha is slaving away in the kitchen. She works extremely hard to prepare a meal and a home that she hopes will please Christ and suffice His needs. However, her sister Mary sits at Christ's feet and visits with him as Martha is preparing the food for Christ. This upsets Martha and she says to The Lord, " dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? Bid her therefore that she help me." (v. 40), to which Christ responds, "Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her." (v. 41-42).</div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Was Martha in the wrong investing her time and energy in preparing a meal rather than sitting with Christ as Mary was doing? I don't believe so. I think this story is very relatable to our day. Some of us posses more of a Mary-type personality; we are easy-going and don't see much of a need for preparation and planning, whereas many of us are like Martha; we become consumed in the details of temporal and material matters. There is both good and bad that comes with these two outlooks on life. </div>
<div style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-top: 1em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
I believe that each one of us at times may resemble Mary whereas other times we may feel more like Martha. Christ delights in both of the investments made in Him and His children. I also believe that as we try to see eye to eye with those who may adopt a different lifestyle and personality that we do, that not only will we become more accepting of all of God's children, but also we will become more accepting of ourselves and our many imperfections. </div>

This week in my New Testament class we went through many different events and interactions with Christ. The first of which being the interaction between Christ and many of His followers in explaining the sacrament in John chapter 6. Christ tells the people, "I am the bread of life." To which their response seems unsettled and confused. The people of this time took everything very literally and so when Christ was explaining the sacrament in a symbolic way, many of His original followers left Him because they found this message very unsettling and weird. I think that sometimes we tend to do the same thing because we are impatient with revelation the Lord reveals through His prophets. If these people had taken the time to think about what Christ was saying or even asked Him to explain, they would've understood the meaning behind his words and continued to follow Him faithfully. </div>

We also discussed the story of Christ's interaction with the Canaanite woman which can seem a bit weird upon first reading it. This woman comes to Christ asking Him to heal her daughter to which His reply is essentially silence. He then responds to her request with a no. Finally, the third time she asks, he responds with a yes. This is a powerful lesson because it can teach us the way that Christ will answer our prayers. It also teaches us patience in His timing and His will for our lives. </div>

Mostly this week I've learned about the peace and assurance that Christ gives. I've had very high demands and expectations both in work, school, and socially this past week. All of which leaving me with thoughts of discouragement and self-doubt. However, when I am feeling down on myself or my situation, and I know that I can always look to Christ because He is my shepherd and He has the power to interact with me just as He did with the people He was around during His time on Earth. I am so grateful for Him and I love Him very much.</div>

This week in class we discussed the similarities and differences between all three and how each one of them relate to our lives. The first parable is of the lost sheep. Christ tells of a shepherd having 100 sheep. When one of them wanders away from the rest of the herd, the shepherd "leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it."(v. 4). Each one of us have experienced this parable in one way or another. It can be quite easy to get caught up in things that draw our attention away from Christ and His gospel. When this happens, we may find ourselves afar off in the wilderness away from the other sheep. However, Christ will do all within His power to bring us back home. He is our good shepherd and can "layeth [us] on his shoulders, rejoicing." (v. 5), if we choose to accept Him and His invitation to come. The second parable is about a woman with 10 pieces of silver. Upon losing one piece, she " light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it." (v. 8). In this parable, the coin is lost out of neglect and needs to be sought out in order to recollect with the rest. This may symbolize those who've left the church out of feelings of loneliness or hurt feelings. It is many times the case that we are the woman who neglected the coin and need to take action to seek the one out and bring them back home. The third parable is about a prodigal son who chooses to rebel against his father. However, when he realizes that he needs help he returns to his father and they rejoice together. Often times, we are also like this son who actively choose to rebel against our Heavnenly Father and His commandments, however he will always be watching and waiting for us to return.</span>Tessa Marie Hadleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10433457570578479602noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2497452994248300949.post-51371630570897623862018-10-15T22:06:00.001-07:002018-10-15T22:06:16.766-07:00<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">In my New Testament class this week we discussed several of Christ's performed miracles. In Mark : 23 a man named Jairus comes to Christ and pleads with him to heal his little daughter who is gravely ill. As Christ and His disciples travel to Jairus's house to heal his daughter, a woman with an issue of blood of 12 years touches Christ's clothing because she has faith that if she does so she may be healed. Christ takes the time to interact with this woman and in verse 34 He tells the woman, "Daughter, be of good comfort; they faith hath made thee whole." From this point on the woman is healed both physically and spiritually. As this happens Jairus is informed that his daughter has just died. I'm sure that Jairus had to apply a lot of patience as Christ stopped to heal this woman, knowing that his daughter was dying quickly. Christ turns to Jairus and says , "Be not afraid, only believe." This line is so powerful to me because I can also find myself getting impatient with the Lord's timing and with this feeling of impatience comes uneasiness and fear. However, Christ has the power to do all things. He goes to Jairus' house and heals his daughter. She immediately rises and is made whole again. As we have faith and patience in promised blessings we too will be able to witness mighty miracles in our lives.</span>Tessa Marie Hadleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10433457570578479602noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2497452994248300949.post-33311363541772482422018-10-08T22:02:00.001-07:002018-10-08T22:02:12.699-07:00<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">In Matthew 5 Christ gives the Sermon on the Mount where he lists the "Beatitudes". Previously, I've thought of the beatitudes as simply a linear list of characteristics and resulting blessings. I imagined groups of people in each category and wondered which group I personally belonged to. However, after studying this chapter in my New Testament class this week, I see this list differently. As we treat the beatitudes like a spiral staircase, the preceding trait giving rise to the next, we realize that we don't belong only to one or two groups of people that Christ is describing, but rather all groups. We can recognize the need for the previous listed step in order to achieve the next. "Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." This trait defines a recognition of one's imperfection and gap between God and man. This act gives rise to mourning, "Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted." Upon recognizing this seemingly infinite gap, we feel sorrow. We see that Heavenly Father possess qualities which we hope for but have not yet achieved. This leads us to humble ourselves, "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth." Upon feeling such sorrow, we understand that only through God's will, can we become like Him. We decide to submit our desires and passions to Him. And so on and so forth. The list begins to paint the picture of a large spiral staircase we are all ascending toward our heavenly home. I love the idea that this sermon is not meant to be linear in nature but rather cyclic and a means of progression because that is essentially what God's plan is all about. He wants us to re-learn and apply old things in new situations. And that is what I love about Him; He does not see us for who we are but rather who we are becoming and what direction we are headed.</span>Tessa Marie Hadleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10433457570578479602noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2497452994248300949.post-88318871830038329102018-09-10T22:03:00.001-07:002018-09-10T22:03:41.679-07:00<div class="content" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; color: #444444; font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; padding: 0px 0px 0px 21px; vertical-align: baseline;">

The first week of my New Testament class we discussed the Plan of Salvation and how it is much more convoluted and encompassing than the simple and classic diagram of circles and lines which you might see in primary. We discussed how Heavenly Father's plan is for us not only to return to Him and live in His presence, but also to become like Him and His Son, Jesus Christ. So, it is not only about location but also about a state of being and change that we must undergo in this life that causes us to emulate and reflect Christ and His characteristics. One scripture that made me think of this state is Moroni 8:26 in The Book of Mormon, "<span style="background: rgb(254, 251, 191); border: 0px; color: #333333; font-size: 18px; line-height: 1; margin: 0px;

This week in our
Book of Mormon class, we studied the chapter accounting Christ’s visit to the
Nephites in the Americas shortly after his crucifixion and resurrection. 3 Ne
chapter 11 gives a beautiful account of this crowning event as it depicts the
different aspects which played a part in His performance of The Atonement. In
vs. 15 it states, “And it came to pass that the multitude went forth, and
thrust their hands into his side, and did feel the prints of the nails in his
hands and in his feet; and this they did do, going forth one by one until they
had all gone forth, and did see with their eyes and did feel with their hands,
and did know of a surety and did bear record, that it was he, of whom it was
written by the prophets, that should come.” I feel that this verse perfectly
portrays both the extraordinary saving aspect of His Atonement, and also the
intimate and individual aspect of it as well. As we see the entire <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">multitude</i> of all the Nephites going
forth, we remember that Christ’s Atonement was for ALL mankind, whether or not
some would choose to accept and apply it or not. His sacrifice is incomprehensibly
deep and encompassing as it is still in affect today. The Book of Mormon speaks
of it as a sacrifice for every living thing that has ever been brought into
existence; not only was it to pay the price for our sins, but also to give us
hope and comfort and peace in the midst of our afflictions and weaknesses. At
the same time, we read in this verse that as the Nephites went forth, they each
took time, one-by-one to look at the Savior, speak to Him, touch his wounds,
and have a face-to-face personal experience with him, he being their personal
Savior. As He suffered in the Garden of Gethsamane, I believe that Christ took
the time to think of and sacrifice for each and every single one of us. So, He
truly does know us perfectly, and has empathy to relate to our hard
circumstances in this life. The Atonement was not only infinite, it was also
intimate and personal.</div>

In Mosiah chapter 27 we read of Alma’s
reaction to hearing that his son has been struck as if dead. His
response seems odd to some, but I have gained a better understanding of
it while studying Alma’s son’s account of his own experience in my Book
of Mormon class this week. In Alma chapter 36 Alma the younger records
his own experience of his dramatic conversion unto Christ. He talks
about an angel appearing unto him as a result of the prayers by his
father and many others concerned for him in Alma’s behalf. After which
Alma recounts three days that he spends in darkness being “racked even
with the pains of a damned soul…Yea and I had murdered many of his
children or rather led them away unto destruction; yeah, and in fine so
great had been my iniquities that the very thought of coming into the
presence of God did rack my soul with inexpressible horror.” During this
time he remembers the teachings of his father about a Jesus Christ who
would come to save men from their sins and iniquities. He chooses to
accept Christ and feels the pain of guilt no more. After this, Alma
arises and his heart is changed.<br />
I have related a lot to this experience this year thinking of my
younger brother who has dealt with hard things recently in his first
year of high school. Although I want him to be happy right now, I know
that sometimes God asks us to go through lonely or hard times in order
to eventually have the opportunity to choose Him and the light he can
provide in his life. So at this time, I can learn from Alma’s father’s
example and practice persistence in prayers for my brother, faith in The
Lord’s timing, and patience.<br />

The story of Abinadi and his missionary service hit close to
home because of what happened as a result of his preaching. Although, through
Abinadi’s efforts only one of King Noah’s priests, Alma, chose to be converted
to Christ and listen to his teachings, he ultimately helps hundreds and
thousands come unto Christ through this one convert. After Alma flees from the
king and his priests he invites others to come with him and passes along what
he had learned from Abinadi’s<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>counsel.
This group, later on, all become baptized and as Alma continues to be faithful
throughout his life, his son Alma the younger is also converted and becomes an
amazing missionary tool in converted the thousands of lamanite people unto
Christ. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As a missionary in Hong Kong, baptisms were not necessarily
overflowingly abundant. The people there are predominantly practicing
Buddhists. It was difficult to find people to teach and when we did, it was
hard for them to find time amongst the hustle and bustle the city had to offer
each working person and family. Although the amount of people I taught who had
actually received baptism was few in number, I continue each day to see the fruits
of those who did decide to follow Christ and join the church. As they continue
to influence their families and those around them, our teaching the gospel
truly becomes a seed planted.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One of the many people in Hong Kong that I love dearly and
was fortunate enough to teach throughout their investigation of the church was
a woman named Winnie and her son, Sam. Although it took them a year and a half
to finally accept baptism, as I continue to keep in contact with them, I
realize how the gospel has influenced the rest of their family and hope to see
Sam go on a mission in a few years to share with others how the gospel has
blessed him and his family. We never know how much good our service is going to
actually end up doing in the world, as the gospel is a stone cut out of the
mountain continuing to roll on throughout time. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’m grateful for Abinadi’s example, for I feel that he truly
knew that success is only something given of God and does not measure our
diligence, faith, or obedience as a missionary of the Lord.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
One of my biggest heroes and influences in life is King
Benjamin in The Book of Mormon. Although I was not there personally at the time
of his speech he addressed to the people he served over, each time I read the
account of his message he shares, I feel a huge desire to become more like
Christ. I love that King Benjamin<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>focuses
on service and equality among all of Heavenly Father’s children. And as he does
so, establishes himself as the example. Throughout his address, Benjamin
repeats the phrase, “And even I whom ye CALL your king…” The word that sticks
out to me in this line is CALL. Through such phrasing, the king himself does
not raise himself to a higher state or position than the people. He in turn
puts the focus only on how his people address him. I love that he doesn’t say, “And
I who AM your king…” I think the words that King Benjamin chooses to use are
beautiful because it provides a selfless example to his people, not for his own
sake, but for the purpose of having them look toward Christ who is and always
will be our perfect example of kindness, equality, and selflessness. </div>

<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>One of
my favorite verses in Mosiah is chapter 4 verse 19: “For behold, are we not all

substance which we have, for both food and raiment, and for gold, and for
silver, and for all the riches which we have of every kind?” King Benjamin
automatically reduces the distance our society creates between those of
different economic and social classes with this portion of his speech. He
places each and every one of us onto one equal plane, letting our individual
trials and hardships become a connection between each of Heavenly Father’s
children.</div>

In middle school, I met a friend who became one of my very
best in life so far. Upon first meeting her, I didn’t notice anything significantly
strange or different about her until I met her family. A few months later, she
went on to tell me about their situation; They were an actively practicing
polygamist family. My friend expressed to me the disconnect she felt with this
lifestyle and how she knew it was not of God. She explained many forms of abuse
in different circumstances she had first handedly witnessed. She has since then
left her friends and family and everything she grew up with and was surrounded
by to escape the harmful environment of polygamy. A few years ago she took missionary
discussions with her husband and ended up not getting baptized. To this day, they both say the one thing
stopping them is the plural marriage that members of our church practiced
during the restoration and establishment of The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-Day Saints while Joseph Smith was prophet. <o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is why what we had discussed in my BOM class this week
was so meaningful. In the book of Jacob, Jacob confronts his people for
practicing plural marriage when not commanded to do so He gives them the law
that they are not to marry of have relations with more than one woman. He also
gives them the exception which states that unless the Lord commands them to do
so “for the purpose of increasing His seed” (referring to members of the
church) they will be held responsible for all of the pain and heartache of the
women and children under such circumstances. He goes on to talk about women and
how God views them in such a beautiful and tender way. The biggest thing I take
from this is the reasoning given behind the exception. When Joseph Smith and
the members supporting and sustaining
him during the early days of the restoring of the church according to
this scripture, God commanded Joseph Smith to practice polygamy for this same
purpose. Many women and even few young girls were sealed to the prophet in
hopes of gaining access to the celestial world when he time came without any of
the emotional, physical, and sexual abuse that accompanies polygamist families
today. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
This week in class we studied 2 Ne 4 and 9 which include an
emphasis on Christ’s Atonement explained by Lehi. The description and
explanation he gives is beautiful. “And he cometh into the world that he may
save all men if they will hearken unto his voice; for behold he suffereth the
pains of all men, yea, the pains of every living creature, both men, women, and
children, who belong to the family of Adam.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The scriptures tell us that Christ descended below all things. Before he
was crucified on the cross He prayed in a garden called “Gethsamane”. During
the hours He spent there, Christ himself atoned for the sins of the world:
meaning he felt and experienced all the terrible consequences and after effects
that come from doing things that are wrong that hurt ourselves and others. Some
of these include guilt, shame, regret, addiction, depression, anxiety, loneliness,
despair. This was just part of the sacrifice He made for us. He also
experienced and felt the weight of our personal trials and hardships we pass
through in this life. His heart took upon the sadness that often comes along
with the death of a loved one, the isolation paired with mental illnesses and
disabilities , the physical pain of Cancer and impairing diseases, the injustice
and inequality of haunting acts of prejudice. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Next time somebody tells you “I completely understand”,
sadly they don’t. I commend them for their attempt to sympathize and offer
support, however, the distance between sympathy and empathy expands and
enlarges to a distance that we as human beings may not be able to fully comprehend
in this life. That far-reaching distance is made up by the most selfless act of
service the world has ever seen, Christ’s Atonement. Christ, our Savior, is
really the only one who truly understands what we are going through because he
experienced it himself personally. What a beautiful thing to me. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I remember in class talking about the nail prints in his
hands and feet. It reminded me of a mission conference I attended previously.
They talked about how Christ choose to keep these scars as a remembrance of His
love for us. In class, somebody mentioned that He was the only one of Heavenly
Father’s children that would have an imperfection in his resurrected body.
Personally, I don’t believe this. I like to think that we will be given the
option to keep scars and physical imperfections that have made us who we are. I
was born with a port-winestain birthmark on my forehead and lip. When I was
younger it was dark. It has lightened but remains the same size. I used to be
embarrassed of it and would cover it up every single day carefully with
expensive makeup once I entered junior high. I did this every single morning
for about eight years of my life. On my mission, I stopped. I figured that
embracing myself, my WHOLE self, for who I am and the body and imperfections
that God had given me helped me to be more accepting of both myself and others.
Today, my birthmark is one of my most favorite things about me. I love it and
wouldn’t change it for the world. After I am resurrected, I hope God asks me, “Tessa,
would you like to keep this?”. Because I will exclaim “Yes, yes, yes, I would!”
Like Christ’s scars which stand as a reminder of His sacrifice (mostly for us),
I believe that my birthmark is also a reminder of my reliance on Him. It is a
symbol to me that He sacrificed because I, as an imperfect person with flaws
and shortcomings, am able to feel whole and free as I accept Him and allow Him
into my life. This is my hope and my perspective on how I might be able to
someday keep something sacred and special to my heart to remind me of my
reliance on Him throughout my journey here on Earth.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Since
returning home from my mission in Hong Kong, I have been studying as a
pre-dental student. I have recently started a new chapter of my academic career
at a university called Brigham Young University. This isn’t your everyday
institution. It being a private school owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-Day Saints has been dedicated by church leaders as a place of learning
where the spirit of God, our Heavenly Father may dwell and influence the
studies and efforts of all those who have chosen to become a part of it. With
that, the University offers religious study classes. This semester I am
enrolled in an ancient scripture class in which we as students will, more
specifically, be studying The Book of Mormon. Some of you may have noticed that
I have mentioned this book more than a dozen times in the entries accounting my
experiences serving as a full-time missionary. Although this book is an ancient
historical record containing the history of over a thousand years of early
North American inhabitants and comparatively complex doctrine explained by
prophets who witnessed many events that had occurred during the time, the
message of the book is actually quite simple. It shares of God’s love for his
children and how that love is manifest through miracles once we decide to let
Him into our lives. As a matter of fact, the entirety of the record may be
explained in a few short sentences at the beginning of the book. It begins with
the writings of a young man named Nephi. “I, Nephi, having been born of goodly
parents, therefore I was taught somewhat in all the learning of my father;”,
Instantly, this Nephi character is relatable to each and every one of us who
have been raised by parents trying their best to teach us and help us grow and
develop along the pathway of life into adulthood. However, what I find
interesting about this line is Nephi’s use of the word “somewhat”, indicating
that his father had not revealed all things known unto him, but rather had
allowed his son to act on the things he chose to teach Nephi. I believe all
good parents follow the same pattern in raising their children, in hopes that
they may be able to learn and grow into something better and stronger than if
they had not experienced hardships and slipped up along the way of life a time
or another. “and having seen many afflictions in the course of my days,
nevertheless, having been highly favored of the Lord in all my days; yea,
having had a great knowledge of the goodness and the mysteries of God,
therefore I make a record of my proceedings in my days.” Again, we may
automatically see our own lives through Nephi’s account. Afflictions. Everybody
has experienced them once or twice on their mortal quest to happiness. In this
sentence, Nephi uses a cause and countereffect relationship which is apparent
in his usage of the word “nevertheless”. Once again, I believe that most
individuals reading this can attest that there will always be a countereffect to
our afflictions as long as we are willing to handle them the right way and
perceive them through hopeful eyes. Each of us have different ways of arriving
at the results of a trial. Nephi goes about doing so with his faith in God
being his Father in Heaven, a higher being he, Nephi, may look to for guidance
and counsel when it seems as though there is nowhere else to turn. I, like
Nephi, have chosen to believe in God not only as a source I may look to for
direction, but as a physical breathing personage who lives and watches over me;
someone I may rely on to reveal truth to me and those I love, someone who
exists to understand and care about my most minute fears, hopes, and dreams. He
is my father and my friend. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>This is
only but one account out of dozens throughout The Book of Mormon, written
firsthand by eye-witnesses of miracles, written by fathers, written by
imperfect people living in an imperfect world, but believing in and striving
for goodness, people like you and I who make mistakes and have doubts and
flaws, but nonetheless, get right back up the next day and try again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In Hong Kong, I shared this book with anyone
and everyone I could. I knew that it had a certain power about it to fill the
people of Hong Kong’s lives with hope, hope for a better world, for answers to
long-awaiting questions, hope for peace and comfort within family relationships.
It has done so for me. Something beautiful about the world is that we, as
individuals, are each entitled to our own opinions and beliefs. That makes us
who we are and helps us to express a uniqueness that each one of us hold. The
intent of me writing this is not to force my opinion upon anyone, but rather to
share what I hold near dear. We may not judge a book by its cover, but by the
first page, maybe so.</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;"><span style="font-size: large;">Its so crazy weird to me that this is the last email I will be sending to you all from Hong Kong. This week has been really touching to see the people's Christ like care for little Sister HA. I wouldn't have guessed I would make such amazing friendships here all the way across the world. They are not just friendships though, they are made eternal through the goal and purpose that we each hold; to become like Christ. I am so so so blessed to have worked with them all and really could feel and see their love for me yesterday at church after I was able to get up and give my testimony. </span></span><br />

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I don't really know what to write in this last email but maybe I can share some of the few simple things I have learned on my mission. First, I have been grateful to see that Heavenly Father's children that live all the way across the world from me are still Heavenly Father's children and they have the same hopes and needs and worries that I have. I have learned that we are happiest when we forget about ourselves; those that lose their lives in service of others and put others' happiness before theirs' in behalf of the Savior, will find their life and will more easily see the hand of God in their lives. I have learned that this gospel and this church is Christ's true church and His teachings brought back in its fullness and that Joseph Smith literally saw Christ and our Father in Heaven and was called by them to be a prophet and revelator to translate the Book of Mormon, a compass to guide our lives and answer our prayers. I know without a doubt that the Savior is real. I know He lives and the wonderful gospel He has given is a way for us to fully partake of the blessings from His Atonement that He performed while here on the Earth. Its almost as if it is still being performed because we can be active in receiving its strength every day. Basically, I'm just a really lucky missionary to have come to the beautiful land of Hong Kong to realize the beautiful blessings of the Gospel.:)</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you all for your emails and pictures. It has been a pretty good week. We gave our Zone Training Meeting last Friday and it wasn't as organized or as fulfilling as we had hoped for, but it was still good and I think helped the elders and sisters look forward to sharing the gospel during Christmas season.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> I've been really blessed this week to be able to give last testimonies. Last night all the departing missionaries spoke at a fireside and it was super fun and cool to see everybody and how they've changed. We were only supposed to give a two minute testimony but I think mine was five. haha oops. It was just really neat and fun to be up sharing experiences and I felt the gift of tongues so strongly like I could just be up for an hour speaking fluent Chinese. It was actually kind of weird in the moment just realizing that I was up on a stand in China speaking fluent Chinese and making an audience of Asians laugh at my jokes. I shared about how difficult it was to come out and how I told you two to come pick me up at the airport haha but how I was grateful you didn't and about meeting the handicapped girl and praying with her. It was really so fun and people came up to me afterwards to thank me for some of the things I said they needed to hear.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Our investigators are doing well. Sister _____ is so stinkin cute. She literally tells everyone she meets about how it was God's plan that one day that we found her in the park with her dog. and how I came back to Kwai Fong. She fasted with us yesterday for her first husband who died last year to meet the missionaries in the spirit world. Wow, I was pretty impressed with how she thought that through actually. And then in sacrament meeting almost all of the testimonies born were about the plan of salvation and we could tell she totally felt the spirit. My bishop told me to persuade her to get baptized before I leave, but I don't know. However, tomorrow she set up a time that her and her husband will be out to lunch and we can accidentally swing by to eat with them.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Sister ______ is doing well. She has really changed and is becoming more humble. We can see the spirit working with her. She is also slowly starting to make more friendships in the ward with the sisters. ____ has started taking lessons from the elders so that should help. hopefully.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I'm trying to give me all the last time but its sometimes really hard like sometimes I don't even realize that I am thinking about coming home like its always in the back of my mind.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I can't even wait to see you guys. I think I might even be a little too excited. I will definitely tell my ward members how grateful you are for them and bear my testimony next week in sacrament meeting. I already bought the magnets and ornament haha and other souvenirs.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Firstly thanks for the pics. You guys look all grown up! Hopefully I recognize you when I get home.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> We've had quite the round of events this week. Starting off with a flooded apartment! Remember when my apartment in college flooded and we had to live in a hotel for three days the week before finals? haha I thought I heard Sister Taylor doing the dishes for an unusually loooong amount of time one morning went in to find out our whole bathroom floor was flooded and water was spraying out of the water hose under the sink. Within like thirty seconds half our apartment floor had been covered. haha that is how small the apartments are. I needed to act fast! haha so grabbed the pipe and the water hose and held them together for literally almost half an hour while doing the Asian squat. haha the water pressure was so high and I was praying really hard the whole time to HF to give me more arm strength because my arms were shaking like jello. bwaha. Prayer works! Finally the elders came over and the repair man found the water button thing. So we spent hours mopping the water back into buckets. It was fun. I will send a pic.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Our investigator Sister ____ is doing incredibly well! She really likes reading the BOM and has been super active in church meetings and activities. We are so excited for her!! ______, on the other hand has not been answering our phone calls:( Don't know why but please pray for her.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My favorite part of the week was teaching our less active Sister ____ who is from Thailand. She is the cutest most humble little lady you'd ever meet! She wants to come back to church but works at a Thai restaurant and has to work on Sundays. She says that she doesn't want to switch jobs because at the previous restaurants she has worked at she gets "teased" (don't know how to say it in English) for not knowing Chinese characters. But our lesson with her was so spirit filled and I could really feel HF leading Sister Taylor and I and the member in helping Sister ____ realize her faith to come back. After that, her husband Mr. ____ offered to show us the way to a members house that we didn't know how to get to. He is quite a character but he likes the missionaries and always welcomes us to his home. </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Yes, we had thanksgiving dinner both as a zone and as a ward. They were both really great and super fun to think of ideas for the zone missionaries.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We met a really great family from Thailand the other day and taught them in their home. A mom and son _____ and ______. It was really such a tender mercy to meet the son because we had forgotten the time of the appointment and had to run all the way to her house. We found just her son home and stood at the door talking to him unto his mom got home then taught the both of them about the plan of happiness and families. They were really receptive. Pray for them pplease!</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This week we've had some super great progressing investigators. _____ is doing well, she just can't wake up for church, but she has been reading and praying (she has been replacing her name in the book of Mormon like we invited her to and loves it!). Besides her, we have another investigator that I don't think I've told you about. Her name is Sister ____. A single mom in her early sixties. She lives with her daughter and was almost baptized into another Christian church until they basically almost pushed her into the font haha. She is actually a referral from another member.She is suuuuper golden and also loves the BOM is reading and praying everyday. And comes to church every week. She has a baptismal date for the 17th of January.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Along with her, we have another new investigator, _____, who is also a referral! She is a single mom of a 9 year old boy. While talking to her on the phone, she said she was looking for more direction in her life. We met with her and her friend and she is super prepared as well! Sister Taylor and I are soooo blessed.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Scripture of the week:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Alma The Younger's conversion story. I love 36:17 because it reminds us that no effort is wasted. Because Alma's father continuously taught him about Christ and The Atonement, even when he didn't think his son was listening or even as he pulled further and further away from the truth, when Alma the younger was at his lowest of lows, he remembered what his dad had been telling him about "A Son of God" and he starts to cry out to Christ to save him from the frightening and heavy state he is in. It is a good reminder that even the little ways we share the gospel could be of great use to someone one day that they have no where else to turn. So keep spreading the gospel through the awesome light of Christ that you guys carry!</span><br />

They made me laugh, then cry, then laugh again. It sure would be a lot easier to not be excited to come home if you guys weren't so stinking awesome:) This week has been super fun and full of little small miracles! </span></span><br />

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We were walking back to the church in the rain and I saw a beautiful tall girl with red hair. I felt that I really needed to talk to her but didn't really know what to say so I just yelled "Hey, I like your hair!" haha she stopped and talked to us and we ended up giving her a great tour of the chapel. She is a model from mainland china and wants to bring her husband and friend next time. Her name is _______ and I'm so grateful i listened to the spirit on that one cause she is super prepared!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In the celestial room this morning I asked HF to guide me to a scripture that could help me know how to serve my last month and feel that my work is being accepted. He led me right to D&C 124:16-20. If you replace the names it was the most perfect answer. I especially love the last line. He spoke straight through the scriptures to me!! So cool.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; line-height: 21.3px;">

<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">We've had a pretty eventful week here in the land of promise. We have a new investigator who is super goolden. It is the teenage girl _____ that I may have mentioned in the last email. She is super awesome and has accepted the invitation to be baptized! We had a super powerful lesson on the restoration after attending English class so please pray for _______!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">little _______________ ended up not getting baptized:( He had a big test today and felt pretty stressed about interviews and baptism and homework and everything so he just told us he was not ready. I felt really bad because while talking to him over the phone he told me that he felt like everyone was forcing him to be baptized. So i've needed to repent for that:( I just want it for him so badly.) However, it was basically the cutest thing in the whole world singing "I am a Child of God" with him over the phone. Please pray for ______ and to help me know what his concerns are.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Something cool that I have learned this week while talking to Sister Taylor about it a lot is just something really simply but profound to rediscover often. I've really learned that the gospel and Jesus Christ to each one of us holds a different meaning. Sometimes I think that I am strange for thinking of certain parts of the gospel or Christ's Atonement differently than others think of it. But that is why and how it applies to each one of HF's children. He doesn't expect us to think the same and have the same views and opinions but to rather find, pull out, and cherish the parts that mean most to us and have relevance to the personal experiences he has given to us. President Lam told me that we each need to find our own sacred grove and I think that comes when we think more often about what parts mean the most to us and accepting that if our own way of thinking about those parts of the gospel make us happy, gain hope, and become a better person, then it is truly from the spirit. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Lately I've been pondering on just what I can do more to really end my mission the way Heavenly Father wants me to and how I can better fulfill my missionary purpose. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you for all your emails and support.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Mom thank you for that little treadmill story I need to apply that more.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">This weeks FUNNY: I was leaving a voicemail for a member when all of a sudden Sister Taylor screamed in the kitchen.I was so nervous that I forgot what I was doing and thought that I was praying so to end the message I just said "I love you" and hung up the phone. bwahaha It was just a cockroach.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Love you all. You are in my prayers.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">PPS had a dream last night that I came home to a huuuuge manshion that you guys had moved into but it wasn't even that fun or cool.so no stress, keep it simple haha</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">We finally got our zone training done with and out of the way. It went pretty well and was fun. Weird to be on the other side of things. The New news is that sister Taylor and i will be training a new missionary together. She is a native from HK who is waiting for her visa to leave the country. I'm pretty nervous, but it is a good opportunity for us! We pick her up tomorrow. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The pictures of HK are from last p-day. Sister and Brother Ho are the nicest and took their free day to tour us around HK. I just love these members here and it is starting to hit me a bit how much I am going to miss them. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">This week Sampster Hampster agreed to do a baptismal interview. He says he wants to get baptized so idk what the hesitation is for. I asked him if the elder tells him he passed what he would decide. He said he would "try it" haha. There are three other children in our ward getting baptized this week so hopefully we can make it four. But I don't want to force him into anything he doesn't want to do. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hey so ends up they actually cancelled mission conference meeting with Elder Nelson:( Don't know why but maybe he doesn't feel well or something. Thank you for your emails. Y'all have been true and faithful my whole mission with that. Means so much to me. This week was full of ups and downs. One of the highest ups was seeing Sister _____baptism. She is literally glowing! It's like looking at a different person and she just seems a lot happier:)) So grateful. Also, we had the opportunity to teach ____ about Joseph Smith last night. He said that one way he can more fully follow Joseph Smith's example is pray and be baptized, however did not really accept the invitation. There is just SOMETHING holding him back and I'm not sure what it is, but I think he has been thinking about it more recently. I sat by him yesterday in Stake Conference because he had no one to sit by him. what a trooper he was to sit through two hours of conference while being sick and tired. I tried to think of what would be most fun for him, so we ended up coloring a picture in the back of the liohona magazine originally meant to be a little girl and her grandma watering flowers and turned it into his grandma and grandpa with mustaches, wrinkles, falling out teeth and huge bees stinging their faces. haha it was fun and helped him forget about how sick he was. No, I didn't get one thing out of stake conference. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> Lately, I have pondered this question very deeply: How can I more fully and bravely share myself and ideas and talents with also accepting and completely supporting others in their ideas and what they want to do? Its so hard to find this balance. So, yeah, I need to repent because there has been some pressure between us just a little bit. But we talked about it and it is a lot better now.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">But, you are so right mom, good thing we have Jesus Christ who makes up for our shortcomings and our flaws. It's all just a choice whether or not we accept that gift he has given us.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Last week I may have received some revelation or inspiration about living at home this next semester. I just emailed Holladay Orthodontics office and asked if they had any internship/service volunteer opportunities. I remember watching a girl just a year older than me, one of Madi's friends, work as an intern there. That way I could just go to school at SLCC stay home and get some experience as well. Let me know what you think.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Sophia, You are awesome. its just everyone around you is not as awesome. But don't worry I will be back soon for you to rely on my awesomeness.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Dad, way to go!! Brownie point for you in heaven!! Let me know what she emails back</span></div>
