Faith'er

Man this last week has dumped a ton of water on our heads, but it's clearing out. We've started being able to go out and visit people, but lots of restrictions (I don't like that part). We've also begun to teach more people this last week! I love teaching people about the Gospel. There's one family that remembers our names with a pun, Elder Shaw-King, and they've been saying it every time we call and visit with them. 

So this last week Elder Shaw and I were studying the difference between Faith and Belief. It's pretty simple, it's ''Action.'' I then started to self-evaluate on my actions, do they show belief or faith? Are my actions that of a believer, or a faith'er. It's like the difference between sayers and doers. As my boy James always says

22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
   23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
   24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
   25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. 
        - James 1:22-25

I know that as we put our belief into practice we show our faith and I have seen the blessing that come from that. Try it out, I've enjoyed it this last week. Anywho love y'all have a great week!

-Elder King
