The Only Way

 


Hey. I miss you guys a lot. I hope things are going well. This world is crazy city. Wayy a lot is going on, and a lot of it is scary and no good. A lot of my friends brought this up this week, so I've been thinking about it. What are we supposed to do with so much evil and hard, hard things in the world? 2 Nephi 31 says "This is the way; and there is none other way nor name given under heaven whereby man can be saved in the kingdom of God... this is the doctrine of Christ, and the only and true doctrine of the Father, ad of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." Jesus Christ is the only way we can get through this crazy world. His doctrine of faith, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end will help us through hard times when nothing else will. That is the reason I came on my mission, to share this message. I know it is true with all my heart, and I am SO glad I am a missionary and representative of Jesus Christ so I can share this message with people who I love so much.

I made a new friend this week! Corin came to church on Sunday!! She is deaf and looking for a church with an ASL interpreter. And we have one. :) I am so excited to get to know her better. Pray that I'll have the gift of tongues cause I really want to be able to communicate with her, and I'm gonna work on learning sign language. :D

I love you all! A lot happened this week, but I just wanted to share the really important stuff. If you want to talk more, email me at liberty.johnson@missionary.org.

LOVE,

Sister Liberty Johnson

It's Good to be Home

  Missions are hard. You give your whole self every single day for a long time. You have to do scary things like talk to people you don't really know and have major changes in your life every 6 weeks and tedious things like create workshops plan. Yesterday, Sister Maxfield and I were both hangry and trying to plan a lesson and just started laughing at ourselves cause we were struggling so hard! But there are also times of complete, full joy that I can't even describe that makes everything else so worth it.  Cindy got baptized Saturday morning, and it was one of the most wonderful things I've ever been a part of. She's gone through a lot to get to where she is now and has a lot of hard things yet to come, but she is truly converted to Jesus Christ and cares more about following Him then anything else. There is such a light about her! After the baptism, she said she felt this weight lifted off her that she didn't even know was there. In church, she bore her testim...

Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone! I hope y'all had an incredible Christmas. I did. It was definitely weird not be home and for there to be no snow on Christmas, but this week was awesome. First, the funniest, strangest thing that I have ever experienced happened this week. On Christmas Eve, we were going around delivering Christmas cookies to some of our friends. About a month ago we met this dear old lady named Marcie, and we decided to take some cookies to her. Sister Johnson has incredibly good intentions, but she is also new to this whole driving in Harrison, AR thing and is terrible at directions. So, we go up to knock on the door, and this old man walks out. We ask if Marcie is there, and he looks really confused and says, "My wife?" We're like, yeah. So we go in, talk to this old guy we don't know. I'm confused at this point because I was pretty sure Marcie didn't have a husband. Then, this old lady (the guy's wife) comes in, and she is definitely  not  Marci...

Merry Christmas! (Almost)

  MERRY CHRISTMAS (almost)! ❄❄❄ What a beautiful week. The highlight by far was our lesson with Cindy. Aww, I LOVE her! It's kinda crazy we've only known each other for a month-- I'm sure we'll be friends for life. Sister Beasley was visiting for the day, and we taught Cindy the plan of salvation. We asked her what she thinks her purpose in life is, and she said it is to know God and help others know God. Wow. It's amazing how simple the God's plan is-- all we need to do is bring Christ into our life through faith, repentance, baptism, the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end, and we can do exactly that. I know God loves Cindy so much and wants her to live with Him forever. She wants that too. I asked if she wants to be baptized, and she said YES!!! WOOHOO!!! I am so excited for her.  I love celebrating Christ's birth this Christmas season. He is who makes second chances and knowing God and this whole plan possible.  Merry Christmas!! Have so much fun c...
