This
week has been a tad trying, but I'm happy because that's where that
whole growth thing comes in. We had our first couple of exchanges and
because of it, we weren't in our area too much this week. I know that
the Lord's going to take care of it though as long as we put in our
effort in taking care of these wonderful sisters we're over. It also has
not been the easiest when it comes to exchanges. These sisters are
dealing with some real problems out here that I can't possibly even
begin to understand! It's a good thing that their Savior does though and
how comforting that is. We must just constantly be focusing on Christ.
Linda
is not too interested anymore, so that's been rather rough but the Lord
blessed us with such an incredible miracle! Her name is Ciara and she
is ONE incredible woman! She is a young mother of two young boys. He
husband works at a flower shop (so cute) and she has SUCH an incredible
desire to do what her Heavenly Father wants her to do. She recognizes
the spirit in her life and how it is over when we come to her house, but
she wants to keep it with her always! So golden I tell you! She knows
that what the spirit is telling her through us is of God, but she's real
nervous to getting baptized. Her family is not too supportive. Her
husband will follow her wherever she goes, but is still not strongly
into religion in the first place. And then the rest of her family are
all Presbyterian and believe that we are, well, let's just say not the
true church. (he he) She is going to be needing a great deal of faith,
support, fellowship from the ward, and trust in her Savior and the
Spirit right now. It's going to be rough but she knows that she wants
this in her life. Please PLEASE pray for her.
So enough about
me. How are YOUR missionary efforts coming? Have you been able to
listen to "The Missionary Next Door"? Sister Chandler and I are working
with the young men and women leaders to be able to have a combined
activity where we discuss and listen to it with them! So much potential,
not only with the youth, but everyone!! Oh goodness, it's my prayer
that everyone comes to realize just how important this work is. The Work
of Salvation in fact! (Just ponder that for a minute) I hope everyone
not only recognizes their potential of sharing this gospel, but just how
easy and fun it is! We are ALL commanded to open our mouths and share
this wonderful news with others who just don't have it yet. "People in
this world are crying, knowingly and unknowingly for something. We have what they need" - President Worthlin Please share :)
I love you all muy much. This work is incredible and I'm absolutely LOVING being a part of it.
Remember how much your Father in Heaven loves you, and Go Forth With Faith!
