It was great to get to read all of your letters today! I wanted to say happy birthday to Scarlet and Madelyn! I think I might be a little behind on that, but I am trying!
This week was great! Yesterday I got to go on an exchange with Elder Olsen, my last companion. We had a blast getting to work together again. It is always fun to get back to together with past companions.
This week I learned a great lesson about focus. We have been trying to find how it is that we can push the limits of what it is that we can do. Or in other words, avoid just becoming complacent with average. As I really put some thought and study into it, I realized that it all depends on where our focus is at. As missionaries, there are a lot of things that we need to do. I would say that this applies to life back at home also. As we really put our focus on the really important things, the rest of the things get taken care of. Here in the mission, our focus is on solely fulfilling our missionary purpose. As we do so, success increases, we have a greater measure of the spirit, and we feel successful. A cool lesson I learned this week.
As for now, things are going well! We continue to see the Lord's hand in our work. I love it here! I hope that all is going well at home! Love you all!
Elder Roberts
