Wow what a week! They fly by like no one's business. I can't even believe it sometimes! But its true, here we are again :)
One thing I have been thinking a lot about recently is
Christ, My true and my personal Savior. Everyone here has a purpose in
life and was foreordained in the Pre-Earth life to fulfill this mission
they were called to. No one can do it just as good as you can, that is
exactly why you are where you are today. God has a plan of you and for
everyone around you.
I found this Mormon Messages we have been sharing with members:
There is going to be people with in our paths that are
wounded, spiritually, emotionally, mentally or physically. We will be
given the opportunity time and time again to help Christ heal these
people. When we are baptized we all make a covenant with our Heavenly
Father to bare one another's burdens, and to stand as a witness at all
times.
Satan uses the same technique over and over again. Just like wolves
that attack a herd of animals. They go after the weak, babies, elderly,
broken and lonely. Our father in Heaven is aware of this and that is
why our church is built the way it is, we are under covenant to be our
brothers keep to help them through the hard times and watch over those
that may be weak, lonely, old or new so that they aren't in harms way of
being snatched up by the beast it's self haha. I love our Savior and
God's plan for us. He is so forgiving and so willing to let us continue
to try and try again. As long as we are doing our best we can forget the
rest, and keep moving forward with the utmost assurance that God is on
our side, that He does care about our success in this life. And wants us
to fulfill the mission we were foreordained to complete.
The Lord our Savior is your personal Savior, he will
save you personally for the depths of dispare are heartache when we turn
to him. We have the fullness of the Gospel back on the earth! This
means we have the fullness of joy, the ability to experience of the
fullness of happiness whether we are in times of challenge, or
happiness. What a gift haha. I love it!
I think its soo cool to see how much aware the Lord is
aware of us! We have been praying for one of our investigators to really
understand how we can best help her, and she has a real hard time
opening up to us, she just doesn't! So we decided a while ago to buy her
a notebook, because she likes to write a lot and we thought it would be
a good way to get to know her if we could like write to each other? I
guess haha. We had a lady make a cover for us, and WOW it was so cool!
It was way good quality. Anyways we came by our investigators home and
gave it to her, and she LOVED it! She even gave us a hug, it was
serious! Then we talked and talked and then she opened up to us and told
us so much, exactly what we have been praying to know how we can help
her come closer to Christ. What a miracle! What. a. day! We are going
to
keep working with her, it will be slow with her, but SURELY! she will
come, she knows it, we know it, the Lord knows it.
So now that the snow is melting, well every other day
really... like one day it gets warmer and then the next it snows again
haha. It's supposed to snow tonight or tomorrow or something, good thing
I learned to drive in it! I was made for this! ;)
But man it's so embarrassing I have been slipping like every couple
steps haha but I haven't fallen yet! It's because of all that agility
training I have been doing I am sure!
Oh one
more thing we got to teach one of our new solid investigators this week,
it's one of those things when ever you leave the appointment you say
to yourself, "THIS is why I am out here!" She really wants her family
to
come to church, but she doesn't know how to get them involved. I guess
she is nervous her husband won't be willing to meet with us. BUT while
we were in the lesson, her husband came home from work and we got to
shake his hand and invite him to come sit in with us, he said, " no, but
I
will next time if I get a heads up." She turned to us a little later
and
said, "that is a first for him!" This is me in my head, WHOO HOO!
another prayer answered, The Lord is so mindful of us when we pray for
missionary opportunities. I would just encourage you to pray to have
some as well. His work and his glory is to "bring to pass the
immortality and eternal life of man."
I hope you have a wonderful week!
I love you and I miss you.
Keep. on. Keepin' On!!
Love, Sister Tincher
