Entry from May 29
As much as I love my family, I wonder if I should be missing them more.
The truth is: I'm constantly around so many spiritual brothers and
sisters, mothers and fathers. They are there to visit cool sites with me
and give me a listening ear. They invite me to their homes and make
sure I'm safe. I realize I'm having a really unique
experience because of the brotherhood. I love to travel but it is made
that much better by having real friends to see along the way. I've truly
gained more by serving Jehovah than I ever thought was possible. It's
such a privilege to be a part of a worldwide brotherhood who show
genuine, unhypocritical love as imperfect as we are.
Jesus said: “Truly I say to you, no one has left house or brothers or
sisters or mother or father or children or fields for my sake and for
the sake of the good news who will not get 100 times more now in this
period of time—houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and fields,
with persecutions —and in the coming system of things. ( Mark 10:29,30 )
I never knew nor imagined I
could be having this much fun. I can't believe that during my teens that I did
not want to be a witness because I thought that Jahs requirements were
restrictive and I would not be able to have fun. How wrong I was.
So to my younger friends back home:
Keep working hard to resist temptations and please Jah in your worship
to Him and He will surely bless you over 100times.
On my itinerary today:
~Field service with super sweet friends near Twin Peaks(a lookout spot in the hilly parts of San Francisco)
~Out to lunch in downtown San Francisco(it's actually a lot like Manhattan) with others finishing their shift at Metropolitan table and cart witnessing
I'm practically a SF native! The Bart makes getting around on my own pretty easy.
~Study for meeting.
