Week 23

12/5/16

Hey all this week has been good! Some fun things, I realized this week that I am very talented at launching pencils with my stretchy dress lol. My companion and I also made a line dance to a song that is in the Ephraims Rescue movie :) It was fun! 

My district leader this week asked me to teach 5 to 10 minutes about the gift of discernment.. So I planned maybe 5 minutes or so because it was the day before... And I go to teach it, I focused on prayer and how we really need to be making our prayers sincere and how to have better prayers so we can fully have the Holy Ghost with us to teach us more and effectively and follow the promptings we receive.. I thought I had been up there for maybe 5is or 7 minutes.. I sit down, look at the clock and I had been up there for 40 minutes teaching! I felt so bad! But everyone said it was great! And on sunday one of the elders got up and bore his testimony about how important prayer is and how him and his companion were taught it this week.. I was like hey he's talking about my lecture! lol. it made me feel good that it helped someone and I hadn't wasted 40 mintues for nothing! 

One of the elders, we played sport on saturday with investigators and some less actives, and the grass had a layer of frost on it.. One of the elders decided to make snow angles... He is over 6 foot, and he was so funny because he was like a 6 foot toddler, making snow angels in the grass it was so funny! 

We had a lesson with an investigator, who wasn't so sure about prayer last time! But we got him to pray at the end of our lesson, and we committed him to pray to know if the book of mormon is true... He is worried because he knows if he receives an answer that yes the book of mormon is true, then he has to change his life.. Which to me it seems as if he has already received his answer that yes the Book of Mormon is true and the word of God! It was amazing that he realized that though :) we will hopefully invite him to be baptized our next appointment! 

ALL is well, hope all is well there as well! Keep your prayers meaningful, and know that God listens to every single one, no matter how small :) ( example: I prayed for cookies on our bike ride over to our district meeting because I was so hungry amd we hadn't had time to eat and I wasnt sure if I would make it.. 20 mintues later, our district leader busted out cookies.. God answers our prayers because he loves us)

love you all!
