We had a lesson with Brother Sterling this week and he compared learning how to recognize the voice of the Lord like learning how to walk. That is very true. Sometimes learning how to recognize spiritual promptings is easy and sometimes it is super hard and you just want to fall to the ground because you don't know if it is the spirit or your own thoughts. However I do know that when we listen and follow we will be so happy like a child taking their first couple steps (I am just picturing the picture of me learning how to walk in the front room:) I am learning that we should just act on any good thought and then we won't miss any of them that are from God :)
This week there were a couple moments like that. They were cool.
Some events...everyday is blending all together
1. Did some more wood chucking
2. Met this cute old man named Ted. He was completely drunk just eating chips and drinking his beer in his lawn chair but man was he happy! He was so nice, hopefully he will be nice to us when he is totally wasted :) But we said that we would bring the chips next time!
3. Lots of people cried this week that we talked to, I think it is starting to be a normal thing :0
4. Awesome lesson with Ryan and Brother Draleau came, who is like 30 and has 4 kids but is such an awesome missionary! One day, hopefully I'll be that good!
If [we] would open [our] hearts to the refining influence of this unspeakable gift
of the Holy Ghost, a glorious new spiritual dimension would come to light.
