Sister Olsen got transferred to the Independence
Visitor center, So my new companion is Sister Maxwell! She is such a cutie and we pretty much just
go around singing all day haha it's great. She's been out for about 4 months
and is from Spanish Fork. Agh I love her! We've already been able to see so
many miracles.
This past week was a little bit harder to get in with
people and a bunch of people canceled their appointments..but what can you
expect when the Royals are in the World Series! Haha there has been fireworks
going off almost every night this week and even on Halloween people sat in
front of their houses passing out candy while the game was projected on their
house. So pretty much I'm just a giant bandwagon Royals fan now ;)
But the work is amazing, and this week I've had a huge
testimony building experience on the topic of recognizing the spirit. Okay so
this is something that I know I'll be working on for the rest of my life. But
this week I've realized that we must act upon the promptings that we do
receive...otherwise we'll stop receiving them. I sometimes still struggle with
the whole “is that the spirit or is that just my own thoughts" thing, but
my mind this week continued to go back to something that I heard in the MTC. It
talked about how if we are living righteously and living in a way that allows
the spirit to be with us...then we don't need to question it. Everything that
is good comes from God.
Which leads me to something that happened this week, we
had just finished lunch and started to drive out of the parking lot, as we were
driving I waved to this guy who was just sitting outside. At that moment both
me and Sister Maxwell received a prompting to stop and talk to him, so we
stopped the car and talked to him, and as we talked to Wayne you could see the
light in his eyes as he was recognizing the truth. It was so cool.
The more we learn to listen and have the courage to act
upon promptings the more we will be blessed to have the guidance of the spirit.
