Nathan letter 12-8-08

Hey everybody,
This is gonna be a quick one. Just writing to tell you all that I love you and got the packages today. I'm still listening to the Thanksgiving tape. Thanks alot for it and the "forgotten carols". It really made my day better and brighter. It's tough down here for me sometimes because it feels like I don't know Spanish at all. Everyone is better than me and I still can't say things in full sentences. Everyone around me is talking and carrying on conversations and I can't understand a thing. So I get a little discouraged at times, but our price to be a disciple in the church is not free. Nothing is free in the Gospel. Christ paid the ultimate sacrifice for me personally that I could repent of my sins and come and serve a mission. He has paved the way in all of our lives and if we exercise a particle of faith, he will lead us down the right path and make up for our many shortcomings. You will only receive a witness after the trial of your faith. That's what this whole life is about. Living in a way that Heavenly Father can use us imperfect souls and bring to pass His work and glory. Keep Him in your hearts and you will not be lead astray. I love you all!
Your son and eldest brother,
Nathan
