Hello Mom and Dad
So this week has been really good in many ways.
Right now we really do not have any solid investigator. But we do have some really good potentials that we are going to be seeing this up coming week.
On Saturday we received a call from frank telling us that he does not want us coming over any more. I think that a piece of both sister low and my heart broke. but we know that the lord has his time for everything and that he respects every ones agency but it still a little hard when you come to love someone and con see the potential that they have. so we are just keeping him in our prayers and hope that one day his heart will soften.
The area is going really well i really love both of the wards that we are in. the people are just so friendly and you can tell that they really love the gospel.
we have been working with a few less active people. glory is doing so amazing and you can see how the gospel is refining her. We are hoping that we can take her on a temple ground tour this up coming Sunday.
We also had a lesson with a less active brother and sister. I was very sweet. The brother for the firs time in many years got on his knee and prayed and the spirit was so very strong. i love to see how the gospel changes people lives and heart.
Sister Low and i had a really good week. I think that the more that we are together the more that open we both are with each other and that is exciting. our teaching in becoming more united and i very excited that we both are staying here for another transfer. then on top of that we have been having really awesome companions studies!
I am doing great. Let me just say the whole week was fun.. Starting with the sister activity that we had on Monday and all the training.I really learned so very much that is going to help me become a better servant in the hands of the lord. I really love this gospel.so very much and i so grateful for the blessing it is to share it with others.
i was pondering the how the i have been impacted by the holy ghost in the past week. First i would say that i learned that the spirit need to be with you from the second that you step into someones home to teach them. Yeah i know that i should have known this but it was really points out to me over the past week. A part of me thinks that i should get another 18 months to be able to use this new found knowledge. I really felt like i spent a week at the MTC in many ways. On Saturday we felt refreshed and ready to go shout from mt. hood. that the every one needs the gospel
This week was rough because i was feeling sick the whole time and a part of me just wanted to go sleep but i made it through every single day and was grateful to know that it was not me that got My self through it but that it was the lord.
I have been studying a lot about prayer because i feel that this is one area that i really need to improve on. I have faith and i know that a lot of time heavenly father just needs us to ask so that he can bless us and i know that sometime i don't want the answers because i know that i will have to change and grow but more and more i am leaning how to really trust in the fathers will. I was reading in Jesus the Christ about the lords pray and how Christ was setting an example of how we should pray and it was so very amazing. i really love how Heavenly Father gives us what we need when he knows that we need it.
i love you guys with all my heart
love sister goetz
