Grab a hold of Christ's Atonement and then we can do all things!

Another great week gone! At the beginning of this week we were down this huge hill in a place called Exton visiting a recent convert. The lesson went great and then we were on our way back up right before this huge hill a big box van, semi truck passes us. This whole time riding up towards the hill Elder Graham and I are just looking at this hill like we will never be able to ride up it! So basically we were discouraged and knew we were going to be struggling! But I have the idea to catch up to this Semi before it starts up the hill. So we hurry and catch up to the van and grab onto these handles that are on the back of the van while it is still cruising! So we get pulled up this huge hill from this van! It was absolutely great! The lesson learned here is that whenever we think we are struggling or that we won't be able to do what the Lord commands us, He will always be there to bring us back up! We are able to grab a hold of the Atonement's handles and bring ourselves back up to safety! The handles are always extended to us, it is our job to recognize the handles and be able to have the faith to grab hold! I am very grateful for the lessons that I am able to learn each and every day out here in the field and I know that through Christ we can do all things!
