Conocimiento y Sabiduría

Howdy! So, I just want to say something crazy that happened in my home ward. Apparently, my old mission President and his wife visited the ward and found my parents! They sent me a picture.  I can´t describe the joy in my heart... but anyways, another week marches by. We´ve worked hard in this area, and this week was no exeption.  We always get back to the apartment tired, which I love.  I know that the Lord blesses us in our efforts as we continue and try different things as well. This is a difficult area, but i love it because it gives us a huge opportunity to break records and improve the area a ton.  We were blessed with a new investigator named Chrisitan this week. We taught him before in a members house, and they brought him to church.  It was a tender mercy, because all the other solid plans of attendence that we had failed.  But ya, it was an eddifying experience for him.
So hey, the time in the computor lab here is about to run out, but i´d just like to throw out a thought that I was meditating on this week, and it has to do with our knowledge.  Knowledge is something so precious, because it´s one of the only things that we carry with us to the next life.  I get frusterated sometimes, because I know the scriptures, but sometimes I forget where certain verses are.  It just shows to me the importance of the Lord and his Holy Spirit, because through them, we can remember and utilize that knowledge, changing it into Wisdom. So ya, we can be wise on our own, But "To be learned is good if [we] hearken unto the councels of God". 
Busquen al Señor! Sé que este es su camino, y es el único camino verdadero!
(translation: Seek the Lord! I know this is his way, and is the only true way!)
