So this week has been really up and really down! We were able to have 3 zone conferences and teach and learn alot from President and Sister Larson aloong with all misionarys!!! WE have chosen the them of The Harvest and it is very uplifting!!!!
For lack of time I would just like to share with you all a very sprituall experience that we had this week, This week we have had very little time to Proselyte and so when we have been proselyting we have been gong 100% and getting regected... not like once or twice, like every contact we make! It has been hard on us but we are represntatives of Jesus Christ and we are nt going to give up that quickly!!
We gave it all we got and when sunday morning came we had acutally found alot of people who were going to come to church. but not one... not one! Came to church! IT was frustatring beacuse i love these people soooo very much! WE went home and the scripture DyC 122:7-8 came to my mind.
7 And if thou shouldst be cast into the pit, or into thehands of murderers, and the sentence of death passedupon thee; if thou be cast into the deep; if the billowingsurge conspire against thee; if fierce winds become thineenemy; if the heavens gather blackness, and all theelements combine to hedge up the way; and above all, ifthe very jaws of hell shall gape open the mouth wide afterthee, know thou, my son, that all these things shall givethee experience, and shall be for thy good.
It hit me like a splash of cold water and really woke me up. It told me to stop the pity party and get to work! We were then able to find, that same day 2 new investigators who are super super prepared to accept the message. and.... the head of a married famliy who wants us to start visiting them!!!! I know that God answerd our prayers and that he watches over us. I know that this is his work and nothing can stop it! I know that Jesus Christ Atoned for my sins and by his stripes i am healed!!(Isiah 53:5) I love you all soooo much!!!
