Hey all!
This week has been wonderful! Its been cold and rainy in Denmark again! I cant wait for spring and summer in June when it gets here! We had a hard working week, but it was really great! A highlight was when we were on the gå gade(a walking street), and we stoped a man and his wife and at first they started walking away because they didn't want to talk, but then the man stopped and was like okay what is your question? so we asked about families and we said we came from our church, and he goes "hey I have family in Salt lake and I love it over there!" Then he proceeded to tell us all about it and the mormons they knew, and we got to know them as well . They had gotten married 2 years earlier, and they were so great. We talked for about 15 minutes on the street, then they were like its cold out here lets go in here and we will buy you both hot cocoa since we know you don't drink or anything! So they took us into this really nice restaurant we were right by, that they loved, and we sat down and drank hot cocoa and talked about religion, mormonism, good sites to see in denamrk and all these things. it was so wonderful and hyggeligt! so cool!
We also had an adventure going to a dinner appointment when my companion got a flat tire again, the family picked us up on their way by, so nice . We had an appointment after So we left dinner a little late and the members house is about an hour and 15 minute walk , so my companion and iI start jogging until we get to our bikes, then we get there, then one of us would ride my bike and take a break while the other one of us was running with the flat tire bike so we could get to our appointment as close to time as possible. We only had 35 minutes to get there, and we ran the whole hour and 15 minutes in 50 minutes.. ANd we were only 10 minutes late to our appointment, then the guy didnt even show ! It was very dramatic , we tried our very best ! We continue to do the Lords work regardless.
I've thought a lot about obedience this week, and how when we are trying our best to be obedient to Gods will and his divine guidance, "all will be well" . I've also learned that just because "all will be well " doesnt mean that all will be easy.
I hope you all strive to continue to be the best you can be. God doesn't expect us to be perfect in obedience because we are a fallen imperfect people, but he does expect us to be perfect in repentance.. Strive our best to follow Gods law, and love others as we do so!
