All right, I'm giving in and writing an email.

I wasn't going to.

I'm boring.

Anyway, it's all good--we have a baptism this Saturday for Diana, that one really really golden contact we've been teaching. I've seen some pretty prepared people but she definitely takes the cake.

Also, I'm almost finished with Jesus the Christ. By "almost finished" I mean I only have about 200 pages left. I'm actually to the most exciting, and spiritual, part of the book--the last week of the Savior's mortal life.

This has been a pretty powerful read, I gotta admit. A lot of things about the Savior's life that I had questions about have been answered, and my understanding has deepened. I also have developed a stronger testimony in Christ as a living Being, as in the reality of what He did. If you're in for a long read, I would suggest you give it a try.

One of the biggest things I have been learning about lately is the importance of prayer. When you pray, it draws you closer to God. When you don't. you slip away. The only way to understand the relationship you can have with Him through prayer, is by praying.

Diana, before she started meeting with us, hadn't prayed in over 30 years. But she has been praying consistently, and she bore a witness of her own yesterday that she knows He is there, and she knows prayer is powerful.

If you would like to learn more, get on your knees. God is the best reference system in the Universe.

I'm going to sign out now, so I'll talk to you again next week. Have an awesome day.

Love,
