The weeks are all merging into one at the moment haha, but I'm happy and healthy so I can't complain. I moved to Katowice this week, well, last week and it's been a really good week. My apartment is amazing I love it. It's a pretty place and the views are amazing. We even have a balcony haha, so we've been soaking up the sun haha. It's been really good weather as well in Poland, like 22 degrees celsius! I think I burned a little which is embarrassing but it's been nice to sit outside in the sun, keeps me sane. The work is exclusively facebook work, but it's actually really effective and kind of fun, but at the same time it's kind of exhausting. 6 hours talking to people on Facebook in another language actually saps the life out of you lol.
It was Easter this past weekend, surprise. But yeah it was the best time. I loved the extra focus I was able to have on the Atonement and Resurrection during my personal studies. As I was reading in Matthew I came across the well known words, "He is not here, for he is risen," and the words just seemed to jump off the page as I read them and I was filled with gratitude, for I know that death isn't the end. There aren't many other things that bring more consolation to a broken soul than that of the knowledge that Christ broke the bands of death. The grave has no victory and death has lost its sting. Christ's love for us all took Him to Gethsemane and then all the way to the summit of Calvary. He pressed on to the very end, finishing the bitter cup that was placed before Him. I'll never be able to fully express my love and my gratitude for my Saviour, but I hope that my small offering that I make to Him each day of my heart, all that I am and all that I have, is enough.
I love and miss you all. Also, a little shout out to Elder Jake Preston who is an inspiration to me every day.
I hope you all have a blessed week.
