Lots more finding this week. We found a family through
formers. It was really crazy actually because Sister Hancey looked at
her record and it did not look promising at all (like missionaries have
been trying to talk with her for four years with "no interest") but
Sister Hancey felt prompted to go see them and we did and the day we
walked in she wanted it again. Just goes to show you never know. We
are now teaching her and her three kids over 7. Lexi and Hanna are
still progressing. Brent dropped off the face of the earth, but that's
another ridiculous story for another ridiculous day.
Life is pretty interesting, but it's good because
it's giving me a chance to refine myself even more and relearn gratitude
no matter what. I really like how in Uchtdorf's talk he talked about
how gratitude is more than counting the blessings but an overall
attitude and way that we feel. I want to develop that again. While
studying gratitude this last week (even before Uchtdorf's talk) I
learned that to gain to do so, it means you have to be humble. It means
you realize you have God that loves you that has given you. He really has given you all, just as much as
the next person, it's just in a different way and it's up to you to use
what God has given you. Mosiah 2:19-21.
Funny Moment of the Week:
This morning in
companionship study, Sister Hancey told me that she literally thought
growing up that being vegetarian was against the word of wisdom. Then
she ended up with a super vegetarian trainer, who is vegetarian because
of the Word of Wisdom. Go figure. But literally, in the MTC she asked
her teacher how she was supposed to teach WoW (Word Of Wisdom) to vegetarians. Small
town Utah baby. Gotta love it. False Doctrine every where.
P.S. Love you! Sister Heidi Hill
