Hello Everyone! I guess my letter got stuck in a satellite
or something on the way to you. Just kidding we were stuck in traffic yesterday
on the way home so I didn't get a chance to email you.
This week went fast, and it was interesting. One cool thing
is that we've woken up at 5:30 everyday to go to the gym. That's right, Keaton
Ballard actually went to the gym. I actually really love it! I feel like I'm
way more healthy and have more energy! Except after the leg day I walked like
an old woman for 3 days. (latter-day night live and Brian Reagan jokes were
always in my mind). But I hope to still do it consistently so I won't look like
a toasted marshmallow when I come home.
We were able to go on exchanges with the Zone Leaders which
was fun. I went with Elder Harris who's also from Idaho so we made fun of Utah
all day. Just kidding. We just talked about potatoes.
We had a great baby blessing in our branch which was
awesome! Tons of family came to witness it.
But nothing else much happened. :) We're getting a new
ironing board today, so that's exciting..! But yeah this area has taught me
lots of patience just like my first area. It's tough sometimes, but it won't
last forever. I know that we can't see with our natural eyes the design of our
God for the welfare of us at this time. But he does promise that if we're
faithful we'll be rewarded! So that's comforting. This letter is short today,
but just know that I'm fine. I'm healthy, safe, and trying my best. So those
are a lot of blessings that we should always be grateful for. I know that God
lives and loves us.
"More holiness give me, more striving within, more
patience in suffering, more sorrow for sin, more faith in my Savior, more sense
of his care."
I love you all so much! :) Talk to you next week!
-Elder Ballard
