We
haven't been able to find anyone else to teach yet, and we've started counting our no's every day, because if
you focus on the no's that one yes means so much. Haha so in the last
two days we've had 36 no's. It's due time for a few people to say yes,
right? ;)
Good news! Mike (who’s been investigating for
over a year.) is praying about a date for baptism! And our
diligence is paying off, because it looks like we will be getting some
referrals soon. We just really need to be teaching more.
This week I learned a lot about hope and how
Hope and Faith are different. Faith is something that anyone can
have....we have faith that when we flip a light switch that the light
will turn on. But hope is so much more than that. We have faith in
Jesus Christ and what he did...but we have hope that we will do enough to
fully accept his sacrifice and use it in our lives. Hope is what
the world tries to rip away from us. And when we lose hope, that's
when our faith starts to waver. The only way that we can gain
sufficient hope is if we have
our focus set on our Savior Jesus Christ.. Just
like Peter when he was walking on water, the only way we stay above
water is if we keep our sight on the Savior.
Sister Farnsworth is awesome. She has helped me
in many aspects of my missionary work. All the members here love her!
She is so selfless and
is always thinking of others. She uses hard
trials in her past to help others feel understood and to teach with power.
Haha oh and the subject of the email is our motto for the year.
Alright well although I LOVE the holidays, I'm
excited for people to be a little less busy again. I hope you all have
a great week.
