“Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.” (Alma 37:37)

Great Baptism!!!

Dear Family and Friends, 

HELLLLOOOOO  HANDSOME PEOPLE!!!! hahah its just an inside joke in Taiwan... not that I don't think that you are all handsome... haha because you are!!  In Taiwan there is a saying "ShuaiGe'' which means handsome boy!!  We use it all the time when we see cool dudes!!1 haha and they love it!!  

Anyways!!  "X" got baptized this week!!!!!  Honestly.... he is the most amazing guy in the entire world.  I have never seen someone with the desire that he had to just live the gospel.  It was interesting because he really fought hard to change some things in his life and at times it was really hard for him. Physically even.  This last week we met with him every day... as the week went on Satan's power was weakened, and Saturday Satan was crushed to see good ol X stretching and smiling from ear to ear in preparation for his baptism.  So amazing. He bore the most powerful testimony.  It was something so beautiful.  He thanked Elder Ju and I and said that we were his left and right hands.  It was so neat.  He was confirmed a member of the Dakeng ward yesterday and is so happy!!! So awesome!! 
The rest of the week was awesome as well!! Temple on Wednesday and then on Saturday we saw 2 awesome miracles and met with these people we met at family mart and set baptismal goals with them.  It is so true that the Lord has already prepared certain people to receive this gospel.  We just have to find those people and help everyone else have experiences in which they can prepare to receive it as well!!!  I love you all so much!!! Sorry this is so short!!!   That was the week though!!! Love you all so much!!! Keep the faith.  

Love, 

Elder Redding
