A SIMPLE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST: May 7, 2012

Dear Family,

I like Tahiti. I love my mission. Sadly, the baptisms we had fixed for before I left were pushed back. So, unless there is a miracle, which is very possible, I don't think there will be any more baptisms on my mission. We are teaching a guy whose business is selling drugs.  When we first started teaching him,  he didn't seem interested at all. He likes to talk.  When we go we usually listen to him talk for 2 hours and talk ourselves for only a few minutes, but it is interesting to see that at times (rarely) in the lessons,  a simple testimony of Jesus Christ and his gospel will touch him, quiet him, and cause him to reflect.  He starts to ask about how he can change and follow Jesus Christ until he gets tempted, I guess, and changes the subject and chases the Spirit away again by talking about less important things. The Spirit bears witness of the truth of all things to all people regardless of their background or life experiences. That is what I learned this week
Love Y'all
Love, Elder Cosby
