Happy Pioneer Day y'all!
I hope life is good wherever you may be! We had exchanges this week
on Wednesday. I spent
Wednesday in Harlem, with Sister Davis! I quickly realized how small Swainsboro really is, there is so much civilization there haha. I thought a lot about frozen yogurt
on Thursday after I was dropped off. Missed opportunity! But that's okay, because
on Saturday I had the opportunity to see our investigator get baptized and
on Sunday receive the Holy Ghost. Let me tell you about her;
She has the kindest soul! She so desperately wanted to know whether or not the Book of Mormon is true, so she finally humbled herself and prayed to ask God. She received her answer clear as day, and had a desire to be baptized! But, she was wrestling an addiction so she turned to her Heavenly Father and asked Him to bless her with strength to avoid temptation and overcome her battle. It was a long time coming, but as of
Saturday she was two weeks clean! She has been such a blessing to me, I'm so grateful for her example and testimony.
Ether
12:27
"And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness, I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficent enough for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them."
No matter what your struggle may be, I promise God is aware of it and you. Humble yourself, have faith, and look up!
After her baptism, we went to a members home for an early dinner. Seriously, it was seafood galore! My heart was so happy,
two days later I am still smiling. After that we surprised a former investigator for her birthday! Sister Blackburn has been pretty sick, so prayers she feels better soon!
I love and miss y'all, enjoy the week!
