Hello my lovelies! I hope your week has been good! It's been
quite a
rainy week out here. Rain has been pouring all over. It's
been quite
the adventure, but it explains why it's so green out here!
On Monday we got to go see Brenda and it was so awesome! We
had our
plans for the evening fall through and we just decided to go
tracting,
well we were talking and we both had thought about Brenda.
So off we
went! She is the best!
This week we also got to see Sister Price! She's doing
great! We got
to help her with some more painting around her house and it
has been a
while since we had seen her, so we caught up with her on all
of her
travels. She wants to come back to church so we are working
with her
on that.
One of the many miracles we saw this week was a lady named
Kerrie. A
few weeks ago we were planning and I thought we should go
down and
tract but I ended choosing a different street closer to the
area we'd
be in. Turns out this week we ended up on that street and we
found
Kerrie. The first door we knocked on she answered! We
testified of the
Book of Mormon and she let us right in! It was awesome! We
talked with
her for a while about Christ and how important He is, she
told us we
were welcome back any time!
We also got to see Angel this week, he's doing well! We
taught the
Restoration and it was super awesome! Teaching the
restoration is my
favorite lesson because it's the foundation for everything
we build
upon. It's so awesome.
We had a crazy adventure this week. We drove down to the P1
area to
spend the night before our meeting in Broomall. What should
have taken
us only 1 hour and 45 minutes took us 2 hours and 10
minutes. Due to
traffic and a few wrong turns taken by yours truly it was
crazy, we
ended up almost driving into the city and it was just a
crazy
adventure!
Our meeting was super good though! We talked a lot about how
to set
goals and why they are so
important. Sister Condon, a fellow
missionary, brought up something called A-Z goals. It's
where you set
a big goal for goal Z and then make goals A-Y in order to
reach goal
Z.
Another miracle we saw this week is last night Sister Bush
and I were
just put contacting people. There was a man just sitting on
his porch
and Sister Bush thought we should go talk to him so we did.
He was so
cool! We testified of the Book of Mormon again and were able
to give
him one. He told us to come back. As we drove away we saw
him reading
from the Book of Mormon!
All in all this week has been tiring, but so worth it.
Everything
happens for a reason, and God will never let us fail. Yeah,
being a
missionary is hard but serving the Lord is easy. The Lord
only
requires you to follow Him, and to be worthy of His Spirit.
The things
that make it hard are simply worldly things. Agency, Satan,
peer
pressure. When you really stop and think about it serving
the Lord is
easy, mortality makes it hard.
I love you all! Have a good week!
Much love,
Sister Jackson
