This week was crazy busy! The past
week we have been so busy helping with transfers and other stuff that we have
only been able to get away for lessons, and hadn't proselyted in our area at
all. Well Tuesday comes around and we have exchanges. I'm in my area with
another missionary and had no idea what we’re doing. However, it went well. We
were lead to this house and the first door we knocked on we were invited in,
taught a lesson, got a return appointment for this girl named Edwina and she's
golden! It was so awesome! We talked to lots of people that day and had lots of
miracles happen. It built my testimony that even when we don't know how to do
something if we are worthy and just do our best, God will sustain and support
us.
Two days later, on exchanges again,
we saw the same thing happen… miracles. We got to teach two lessons. One of
them was to Dell. We went over the baptismal interview questions with him and
he is preparing for baptism this coming week! It's so cool to hear testimonies
of people you met that didn't even know anything of religion. They then have
personal experiences with the spirit and can say just as soundly as I can… that
this is true.
So last week I may have mentioned
the tree branch fell and knocked down the power pole outside our house… Well
when they put it up, the lines hung much lower... there is a semi that comes
through every other day making deliveries to Food Land Drug. Well he hit it
with the top of his truck and knocked them down again.... the struggle is real!
At the same time we left for a lesson and another car had just hit a power pole,
broke it and it fell killing the power for all businesses around... lesson to
be learned: if there is a big wooden pole in front of you with big
wires....DON'T HIT THEM!!
We had an area conference broadcast
for Hawaii and California. Elder Natrus spoke of 3+1...
1- Pray Everyday
2- Read Everyday (especially Book of
Mormon)
3- Serve Everyday
+
1- Partake of sacrament weekly
This equation is what will keep us
on the right path. What will allow us to feel peace, love, and joy. It is
what will help us return to our Father in Heaven. I know this is true.
I hope you all have a wonderful
week! Enjoy everything that comes! Never forget to find joy in the moment and
to smile lots!
