Week 59: Its not a race... Its a journey.. enjoy the moment!!!!

Dear Everybody!!!!
My heart is filled with Charity and I enjoyed every moment in my life whether it be a sadness or trails or happiness, it did bring joy in my life and it was only through the enabling power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ. It is all for me to prepare here to meet god. At times I went through lot of problems and thought for a moment am I going to come out of it? The darkness force pulls me down than the ability of mine will power. It wasn’t possible I couldn’t do it alone by myself, wondering here and there, is there anyone that can help me. As I read from the Book of Mormon about the Savior, one thing comes out is his GRACE is Sufficient for you. When I started to allow the Savior to help me come out of the dark and dreary and awful state, I am able to recognize a light overcoming the darkness. Through his Enabling power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ, I now come to an understanding a better understanding of his sacrifice for me and for the world.
 Last week was awesome as we found some more new people to share the gospel of Jesus Christ and we enjoyed our week in our personal life to learn more about the Savior and his work here in Vijayawada, Its Awesome!!!!!
However over a period of 50 days I have been experiencing pains on my back, not able to ride the bicycle properly, last week I hurt my right elbow and last Saturday I slipped and fell on the road!! Hehe!!! My both the hands were bruised, after I stood up I smiled at my companion and his immediate question was “Is your back healed?” I laughed and we happily rode the cycle to home. Yes I am alright and I am able to ride fast as usual, I wondered even for this Savior went through the pain and when I am riding the bicycle his atoning sacrifice at the garden of Gethsemane helps me and strengthens me to press forward. That’s how I am able to enjoy my mission life and I know even those who read and around the world apply the same. It makes more powerful when you forget about yourself and think about the Savior, he heals it immediately.      
On the pics are my favorite people from the ward where I come from and I miss them alot, so started doing some crazy things to remember them and break the eggs every morning and eat it!!!  We are teaching two new families, I hope they accept the gospel in their life. 

Love,
Elder Ravindran

Week 23: 2018 Blast!!

I remember last new year roaming on the mid night with dear friends, wishing everybody even if they are strangers it didn't matter and having some fun on roads, a wonderful meal with friends and family. It was wonderful and a time that would never come back. I made a resolution that day, the very day when 2017 was born, that I would do something useful in life and I have made an amazing and loving decision in my life is going on a mission, for me its very precious and I would treasure it for lifetime. Most of us would say don't count the days when you are on mission but as I paused and looked back, I was like wow I completed 5 months. 5 months I was away from my family and friends and its totally a different feelings. I know those who have finished your mission would understand what I am talking about. I would say that its awesome to be an missionary, It taught me lot of things that I would face worldly and I would be capable of overcoming the trails. From my deep heart I ...

Hey everybody, I am soooooo sorry for not emailing you all, Last week we went out as it was Elder Abel's last P-day so we spent our time with him. However our week went so well as it was light the world program and we were able to print the banner and put it outside the chapel so that the people who walk can see it and we did receive some people and some stand and see from outside the main road as we projected the light the world video on the church wall. Its amazing to see it from outside.  My days on mission is going fine and today my companion Elder Abel finished his 2 years mark and traveled back home. So for next 10 days we three will be on trio, me elder miller and thiviyanathan and then I will be getting a companion.
