Food, more food & walking....

August 11, 2014

This week started off with eating 4 lunches and covering 2 houses with mud. It just got better from there. Monday passed by good. Tuesday every house we went to people gave us food. It was painful. The rest of the day we spent walking. Wednesday we got off 2 lessons by the skin of our teeth, including a new lady but she is also scared to progress for fear of her pastor. The other days this week we’ve spent visiting menos activos (less active members). We spent the rest of the week walking and walking and knocking on doors. The work here is going a little slower. Our recent convert got a calling... gathering the hymn books :P Anyway he’s also becoming a home teacher.

The thought this week is this: on pressuring the work of God. I remember when my Uncle Steve was coming from Virginia, we cleaned the house and got everything ready. When he called in Farmington and we weren’t finished my mother hurried us along even faster. We got everything ready when they walked in the door. Well it is the same with Jesus Christ. He’s told us he’s coming and now it’s so close. We are getting the church and the work in order for his coming. Now it can be applied to our lives. If there’s a change we need to make, a friend we need to forgive, or ourselves, or something we haven’t done, we should do it. And apreciar la obra of God (Appreciate the work of God).

Love,
