Well
this week was pretty intersting. First we went looking for a old investigator, but when we got to
the house, the dad of the investigator was outside.We went and talked to him
for a little bit then he’s like so you want to talk to my daughter about
religion? I was like oh dear... protective dads... and we were like yeah is
that okay with you? Then he sits down and pulls out 2 bibles. Then i was like
ohhhhhh boi were gonna bible bash at 9:30 in the morning?? Instead he says, " these don’t make sense. How
come they’re different??" and a light went on in my head... LESSON ONE...
then he was like, "Where do we come from, whats my purpose, and where are
we going?" then BOOM lesson 2!!! then he said. I want to take lessons too.
but i want a lesson without my daughter. I want to be able to ask my questions.
This guys gold. now lets hope he progresses. We plan on inviting him to be
baptized the first lesson.
The second thing is we
have a investigator who’s Jewish we planned out this super awesome lesson about
Jesus Christ and the atonement, then when we went to go pick her up and have
the lesson at her aunt’s house (the aunts a member) her parents came outside
and were like we’re in the middle of our Shabbat, come in and join us. I called
president and he gave us the green light and off we went. . . . . and what the
heck. the sang these weird songs in Hebrew and then at the end everyone poured
up shots of wine and took shots. needless so say i pounded my shots of water. i
was super impressed when this 93 year old grandma took like 5 shots of the
wine. I wish I could say she had a future. It was a super cool
experience being able to be exposed to other cultures and customs. But the
feeling wasn’t the same. There was no spirit. There was no purpose. singing songs just doesnt quench my spiritual
thirst.
i love this church.
and i love the lord and his work
Spiritual thought that
i had when i was studying this week. "diligence reflects our love for the
savior, and our obedience shows our faith"
love you all
