This week's update,
"Hello my dear friends and family,
Things are really going well in Zwickau. I love Zwickau, it is definitely my favourite ward and the people are just so friendly and nice. It's going to be hard next week, to say bye to all these wonderful people that I have met. But it's ok, I'm coming back and I'll see them all again. Our friend Brother Arnold come to church again yesterday.
He is preparing for his baptism on the 12 March. I'm so excited for him. He told me yesterday that after he ate breakfast, that all his power and strength left him. He really wanted to come to church, but Satan had once again attacked. He started vacuuming the house and after that, his strength came back, so he hoped in the car and came to church. One piece of advice, cleaning is good for the soul and will strengthen us. We need to clean our temples, or in other words, our bodies.
When we keep our bodies clean from all sorts of filth, the Lord will bless us with the strength that we need to keep going. The Prophet, Joseph Smith Jr. received a revelation in 1833 called the Word of Wisdom. This is a commandment, that helps us maintain a good health and also helps us to keep a clean body and temple.
As it says in 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are."
We need to keep our temples clean so the Spirit of the Lord can dwell in us. Another way of keeping our temple clean is by not letting in the filth and sleaze of the world. Namely, pornography. This will only destroy you and also your family later on in life. I read a great quote this week that said "porn kills love". That is so true. Don't let your thoughts dwindle within this sleaze, it's not needed. Keep your mind clean and pure and come unto Christ. If you have had problems in the past with any of these things, it's ok, that's why we have a Saviour. He came so we could be forgiven for these mistakes we made, but use His Atonement.
I hope you all have a great week, take care,
