Hello from Honduras

Hello from Honduras!

Hey mom! 

Good morning! I am feeling much better after the baleadas assassins. Honestly I am still way good on the Pepto Bismol. I have a ton. But maybe if you could send those like anti-parasite pills that you sent me that would be awesome. They seemed to clean me out good for a good amount of  time. That is only the second time I have had a bad stomach problem. Other than that I have been good. 

Hope you guys have a good spring break this week. I remember the spring break where I had to take those classes. I just remember it being really boring. But maybe don´t tell Lauren that until after she is done haha.

That is so crazy that you are teaching a class about Ether because today I am going to finish the Book of Ether since I started studying it this week. Pretty crazy haha. Sadly I don't have my study journal but there are two things that really stand out to me in Ether. First, probably the most important chapter to me is chapter 3 (i think) when Christ appears to the Brother of Jared. It teaches us so much about Christ´s pre-mortal ordination and existence. There are lots of people that don´t have that information. They don´t know that we lived before we got here. Lots of people don´t know that Christ was preordained. Some think that he was the "back up plan" once Adam fell. But this teaches us that Christ isn´t the back up plan. But that he is the only plan. And it has been that way before Adam. Second, the emphasis on faith. I love that it teaches us that first comes faith and then comes knowledge. Sometimes it is easy to think that once get a good firm knowledge about these things then we will start to have faith in them. But Ether teaches us the opposite. We need to have faith in order for God to give us knowledge.

Happy to hear about the two happy losses of Presidential Campaigns and teeth haha.
