OKAY So, this week was pretty good! We got transfer news and I am staying in Dilkon for 7 more weeks! (usually when you're the trainer its for 12 weeks so we knew he'd be staying)
I am afraid it will be my last so I want to make the best of this time. I have set some pretty difficult goals for myself but I am confident that we can reach them. This week was nice it was about 70 every day except yesterday it was super windy and it snowed...?! So that was weird but it was nice to get some precipitation. I really miss all the Washington rain haha and the dark grey clouds.
This week we had a cool experience we went to go try to teach some one we had met at the bball courts and we saw his dad and a friend of his dad working on something outside. So we tried to help him. Upon walking up we said “Hey, how's it going is there anything we can do to help?” and he said "NO I don't have time for God.... " We shrugged that comment off and said “okay when would be a good time?” and he said "probably never." So we left and I have thought a lot about that comment "I don't have time for God..." here is the answer that has been playing in my mind since then. “You don't have time for God but he took the time to make you and to make a world for you, to provide you with every divine opportunity to excel and to become like him but you don't have the respect to give him or just a fraction of your time the same time that in all seriousness is his time ?” .. I get kinda upset when I think about it but yeah. I really hope all of you ARE making time for God how you do that is up to you but the best way I can think of is to ask God what he wants and then to do that.
Anyway, this week was a lot of fun we met some new people that are very promising future members of the church. my ponderize scripture is mosiah 24:14-15
14 And I will also ease the burdens which are put upon your shoulders, that even you cannot feel them upon your backs, even while you are in bondage; and this will I do that ye may stand as witnesses for me hereafter, and that ye may know of a surety that I, the Lord God, do visit my people in their afflictions.
15 And now it came to pass that the burdens which were laid upon Alma and his brethren were made light; yea, the Lord did strengthen them that they could bear up their burdens with ease, and they did submit cheerfully and with patience to all the will of the Lord.
I love these go didn't take away there burdens but he made them stronger that they did become light "that they could bear up their burdens with ease..." then they where happy and thanked him and continued through until the lord delivered them out of bondage. we all go through things that hold a lesson that we must learn and until we get help from god to make it manageable enough to take a look at the bigger picture we wont learn what we need to so seek help from god he will help you.
I love you all and hope ya’ll have a great week-Chase
