Good morning everyone!
Super good week this week! Found some cool people. Working hard like usual :) highlights from this week! It snowed yesterday!!! We got like an inch just in the hour we were out contacting so that was super fun. :) we tracted a bunch of houses, not too much success but it was really fun to be out in the cold pounding some doors! I finished the book of Alma! We had the opportunity to check out the first presidency Christmas devotional. Which was awesome! If you haven't checked that out yet, do that! :) Our ward had a Christmas concert and last but not least we got a baptismal date!!!! Whoop whoop! :) so that it super exciting to see our hard efforts finally paying off. :)
This week, we had a lesson planned and a member meal right after. Little background I HATE being late to things especially when other people have to wait on me. Honestly gives me anxiety. Haha but we had a lesson planned with this part member family and it went way longer than we planned on and we were in the middle of this lesson, the spirit was suuuuper strong and everyone was super into it. I checked my watch and realized we missed the train to get to the members house. Usually I would have just said we gotta go and peace out. But the spirit was able to just say chill. It will be okay. And it was! We were able to finish the lesson and it went really well. Then we got to the members 45 minutes late.... but it worked out. :) I love all of the different ways the spirit can talk to us and help us!
This week I was reading in the book of Helaman in chapter 3 and I came across one of my favorite verses. Verse 35 reads, "Nevertheless they did fast and pray oft, and did wax stronger and stronger in their humility, and firmer and firmer in the faith of Christ, unto the filling their souls with joy and consolation, yea, even to the purifying and the sanctification of their hearts, which sanctification cometh because of their yielding their hearts unto God." It reminds me to stay humble because none of us has "arrived" no matter what stage we are at in life we can always become better! This week look how you can improve yourself in a few little things because through small and simple things, great things come to pass. :)
I hope you all have a great week! Thanks for all the love, prayers and support from all of you. It truly makes a difference. :) Love you all and don't forget to Keep the Faith! :)
