I stayed at my room the whole week and just red my ex boyfriend's love letters. I don't understand why I always cried if I was the one who broke our relationship. I loved him. I really do but I don't think it's enough for me to stay with him.
I'm tired of his lies and broken promises. I gave him all my trust and patience but he just took them for granted. He is such an asshole.
"Hey! Rachelle, would you please come out of your room? The missionaries are already here to teach us."
I hurriedly wiped my tears as I heard my father's voice. I putted back the letter under my bed. May be it is nonsense to cry over a man who just know nothing but give you anxiety.
"I'm sorry. I'm coming out." I exclaimed.
I stood up and walked downstair to meet the full-time missionaries. I heard that it is their title at the church. They were with some members of the church who are originally from this City.
I smiled as I saw the teens that were here last time.
"Hi, sister." Jonard shook my hand. The guy who greeted me last time.
"Hi." I smiled but it didn't reach my eyes. I hope they get that I'm not in the mood.
"Rachelle, sit down." I got back to my senses when I heard my father's voice again.
I pulled the chair and sat there.
"So how's everyone?" I pretended okay when the truth is I'm not.
"We're good." Elder Oscar replied. He is from North America.
"Yes. We're good and we're glad to visit your family." Elder Antonio added, his companion.
I smiled again.
We began the lesson with a prayer. They taught us about The Plan of Salvation. They said that it is the lesson that will answer our common questions, which are, Where we come from? Why are we here on earth? Where are we going after this life?
They didn't answer those three questions. They said that they were running out of time and what they can only share is where we come from.
In Pre-mortal life, we lived with our Heavenly Father, the Father of our Savior Jesus Christ. In that place, obedience is the first law. We also lived with Jesus Christ and His brother Satan. Yeah. What you've red is right. Satan is the brother of our Savior and Lord Jesus Christ, and Jesus Christ is our brother because He is the Begotten Son of our Heavenly Father.
Satan offered to save everyone of his siblings but for the trade of God's glory and honor. He would take away our agency to choose good for ourselves. But that's greediness. So, Heavenly Father didnt agreed with him 'cause He is after Jesus Christ's offer to lay his life for our salvation.
The reason why we are here on earth is because we chose Jesus Christ as our Savior. However, those who chose the plans of Satan becomes fallen spirits here on earth. Yeah. What you've red is right again. They are the spirits that creep us because they want us to be miserable like them. But no! There's a Savior whom we can trust to face our fears. He is our strength!
"So how can you make us believe that all you discussed is true?" I asked out of the blue. Of course, I wanna know.
The missionaries and other brothers and sisters that were with them seemed shock on my question.
"A-ahm." Sister Jack startled. Ha?
I want proof!
"Hey! Rachelle, don't be rude." Mom warned.
Duh! I am not rude.
I stared at my Mom. "Ma, I'm not being rude. I just wanna know the truth." I explained.
"You're asking too much questions. The truth is what they said." Papa defended.
"Is asking how will I find out that they said is true is to much? I don't think so."
"Ahm. Miss Rachelle-"
"Just Rachelle." I corrected.
"Alright. Rachelle, we cannot force you to believe on our message but we invite you to kneel down and pray about it. Ask God if all the things that we said were true, because He is the only one that can tell you the truth. Keep on praying until you receive the answer."
"Oh? Is that so?" I asked, raising my eyebrow.
"Yes."
O-okay. I think he got me there. God cannot lie.
"Okay." I forced a smile.
If that's all, we can go back on the other day to proceed the lesson."
To be continue
