hi everyone! another great week in
wyoming!! the weeks are going by so fast and it is really scary. we played
basketball this morning with jontae and his twin brother and it was a blast.
this week was really good! darrell
is getting baptized on saturday and it will be awesome!! i just feel like if
you dont write down everything that happens to you each day you can forget
everything that happened during the past week! haha it is crazy. we taught a
lot, found a lot and had a great time. i love door knocking. after my mission,
i think i will just go do it anyway cuz it is that fun haha. i love talking to
people and asking them questions and having them think and then allowing us to
share something so true with them! dont have a lot of time this week, so here
is the thought.
worldy sorrow is different than
godly sorrow. godly sorrow makes you feel bad for your sins and want to repent.
it makes you feel hopeful and ready to change. worldy sorrow is satan's trap.
it makes you feel hopeless and like there is no redemption from what you have
done. it makes you feel like God does not love you and like Christ's Atonement
is not good enough. It makes you think that you were actually happier when you
were sinning because it wasn't so hard that way. Satan only has one good
quality and that is that he never gives up. he will keep drilling you. your
whole life. so we have to be just as persistent. Thoughts or feelings that God
does not love you or that you cannot come back from a certain trial or mistake
are not of God. Why would a Heavenly Father, who loves you infinitely, ask you
to never try to come back to Him? HE WOULDN'T.
We completely accidentally door
knocked into two members of the church who hadn't been active for double-digit
years each. it was soo crazy and soo cool!! cuz both of them were so random and
serendipitous that it had to be God's Hand. some of the pictures are from one
of their houses. the husband (not a member) and owner of the house is a big
game hunter. so yeah. thats what's up with all the crazy photos.
also ps there have been some GIANT
storms here the past few weeks. it is SO cool!! giant thunder and lightning and
it is awesome! one of the nights there was a tornado!! i have some video of the
damage, but idk if i can send it cuz it is so big! anyway, have a good week
everyone!
love you all! have a great week!
