Hola Everyone!
I hope you all had a fandidalytastic week! Mine was full of rain, sweat, and good laughs like always!
Well let's start with the rain. We have had several severe rainstorms in our area! Don't worry we're okay though! I'm just terrified of lightning and thunder. It's been great! 😑😁😳 We've always been in the car too when these rainstorms happen. First it's sunny and happiness, then it changes at the snap of your fingers to storms and chaos and sadness. ☀️😊⛈🌪🌫🌊😳😭😖 It's been great! Some good laughs have come from it!
Now to the sweat. We have done a lot of tracting trying to find new people! Nobody wants to talk to us though! That's okay because it's not in our time it's in the Lord's time. We have met a lot of people though, just nobody is really interested. It's been good fun though!
Lots of memories! 😊
The good times are always the greatest! We always have so many and I just love it! Here's one that happened this week! We met this guy his name is Jacob and the missionaries that used to be here were teaching him, but something happened and so they stopped. Well we went to visit him and he is so cool! He is super smart and really knows his stuff.
Most of it is on him though to find out for himself if it true!
Another cool thing about him is he made a rap about Jesus to the song the Fresh Prince of Bel Air and it is so cool! Sister Wright and I have decided that we are going to learn it, so maybe y'all can get as much enjoyment out of it as we did! 😊😎😂😜
Not really too much else is going on! Just a lot of walking and talking! I love serving the Lord and being able to do His work out here in Tennessee! One thing that I learned this week is that Christ is always there for us! He always has His arm stretched out toward us.
Yesterday in church I felt the Spirit so strong in Relief Society and I just couldn't hold it in any more and I just had to share an experience that I had with a family member (I will leave them nameless). Well I shared an experience that touched me in my life and they probably don't realize it. It has helped me grow my testimony of this Gospel so much! Sorry, but I'm not going into detail. The scripture that I shared with my experience though is 2 Nephi 28:32 "Wo be unto the Gentiles, saith the Lord God of Hosts! For notwithstanding I shall lengthen out mine arm unto them from day to day, they will deny me; nevertheless, I will be merciful unto them, saith the Lord God, if they will repent and come unto me; for mine arm is lengthened out all the day long, saith the Lord God of Hosts." God always has His arm lengthened out toward us no matter what. No matter what we do he is always there. It doesn't matter how far you've gone away, no matter what you have done, He is always there for you. He will forever. He loves us so much! Another thing that I have learned this week is from a message that we have been sharing to those we talk to. It's a Mormon message called The Will of God, I suggest all of you watch it! It's one of my favorites. It talks of a Gardner trimming a current bush and a discussion he had with it. Then he bases it off an experience that he had in his life with the military. My favorite quote from it is "Thank you God for loving me enough to hurt me." Yes it's strange I know, but if God didn't love us then he wouldn't give us trials and we wouldn't grow and become who we need to be, who He knows we can become! I love this Gospel so much! I know that I am far from where I need to be, but I know that I am on the right path to get there! I say these things in the name of our Savior Jesus Christ, amen.
Sorry for little detail on the first story, but I feel it wasn't important to tell! Also sorry if none of it made sense because my mind is just running 100 miles an hour right now! Well the church is true, the book is blue, and I love you! Hope y'all have a good week! Talk to ya next week! 😊💜
Love,
Sister Jacob
