ANYWAY. this weeeeeeeek was hard and good and a bunch of crazy stuff! i feel like Heavenly father just let me have it reeeeeal easy my whole mission, haha but i feel like i'm definitely learning everything i need to be right now. I said this last week i think but i'm definitely being humbled and ton, and trusting God a ton more, and I asked to be challenged and to grow more so he's helping me get there. so i'm grateful to be here, i am!
the wards though are still SO AWESOME. we've been contacting a bunch of their friends and building relationships and connections and it's sweet.
I'M GETTING MY HAIR CUT.......................... i still haven't done that since i left. hahaha AHHHHH I'M SO SCARED. but it's for a good cause, the hair cutter lady is a potential that the whole ward basically goes to for hair cuts, and so we're gonna get some work done with her! it'll be cool.
ANYWAY. hehehe here's somethin funny, my companion accidentally put diesel in the car.... don't know how cause it should be too big to put in the car buuuuut it worked! and our car died. dead. NO LIFE. it was bad, haha, but we had a good laugh about it, it was cool though cause a member was helping us with it and he works on cars and so he was showing us a bunch of stuff about the engine and i randomly have this huge desire to learn about cars and take a shop class..... hahaha I JUST WANNA LEARN EVERYTHING!!!!!!!! seriously everything! it's awesome my desire for knowledge is goin crazy, it's gonna help me in school to actually study. so that's good. OH! but it was cool cause we got to give the tow truck guy a book of mormon and the member talked to him a bunch! so that was awesome :)
OKAY so we have this investigator named George and he is just the sweetest guy, but his wife passed away, and man it is just this huge black hole for him. he is so sucked into the pain and depression, it's really hard. but we've been workin with him and he's STARTING TO SEE THE LIGHT! he will for sure be baptized, it'll just take time for him. but it's awesome to see little by little the healing process with the gospel. IT'S REAL. it's cool. the whole situation though just teaches me how important prayer is every day. it is SO IMPORTANT. you guys please never slack off on your prayers, especially when you see no purpose and don't want to. make the time. if you don't know what to say, pray to know what to say, use your prayers to help you grow and learn and get strength and show your gratitude, PRAAAAAYYYY!!!!!!!
OH MY GOSH there was a HUGE DEAD MONSTER OF A CREATURE IN MY TOILET WHEN I WOKE UP AND I THOUGHT IT WAS AN ALIEN OR SOMETHING THAT WAS GONNA KILL ME. well. it wasn't too huge now that i think about it, but my eyes were still blurry from waking up so i couldn't tell! but it was a huge nasty dead cockroach just chillin.... BLECH. the apt. used to be infested...... they got it sprayed but we still have to kill a few every day. it's naaaaasty.
OH MY and we had the COOLEST lessons with some friends of members and it was just AWESOME. we had a peace and blessing prayer with them, and man the spirit was so strong, and the 13 yr old kid said he felt someone come into the room during the prayer, WHAT. so cool. and both the parents just felt so much peace from us, and man i love them all so much! they're so awesome, they just got baptized into another church but they're way interested and respect the church a ton cause of the example of the member friends. it's super awesome. we'll see where thaaaaaat goooess .... :)
ANYWAY. there isn't a TON of crazy stuff happenin, but little by little we're figurin it out! i love you all a ton. I pray for you all, I know that what i'm teaching is true. and it's true for everyone. not just a few of us but everyone. I know everyone has their time, and opportunity, and that God never forgets you. he has a plan, and it will work out. trust him, and know that he will NOT leave us. every single person will have back up plan after back up plan, cause God never stops trying with us. he loves us so much, SO! remember to love others, and serve them, cause we are his instruments and we need to be there for everyone else. when god says love EVERYONE, he does not say that with exceptions, he means everyone. we all need to swallow our pride sometimes and remember who we are, who's CHILdren we are, who our father is, and why we're here. don't forget that, don't put yourself above others. trust me, LOVE IS KEY. haha it really is, i love you guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HASTA LA VISTA BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
