This week was pretty.... normal again. I know everyone is probably sick and
tired of hearing it, but there really just isn't anything HUGE happening. We
had a really fun activity with 2 zones (groups of missionaries) at Atsubetsu on Monday. Everyone came
and just brought random props from their
apartments, and we separated into
groups and had to make a skit, and a rap. It was quite entertaining. The rest
of the days we just did 伝道. Didn't have exploding success, but we did meet
some people we'll get to meet again this week, so maybe I'll get something to
talk about more next week.
I will say though, sometimes listening to
the small promptings of the spirit is good. Yesterday, we got back from
Dinner with some members, and my head was splitting. My head hasn't hurt that
much since the week before we pit on Peter Pan. It was bad, but we got back
and I took medicine, but once again, normally it doesn't kick in till about
an hour later, so to keep it from hurting, I laid down on my bed with
a pillow on my face, and it still hurt. Alot. And I had the thought to try
using a rice bag that you heat up and use for back pain. But I didn't want to
get up, so I ignored it, but I thought about it again, and then my beloved
companion mentioned it as well. So I fought the pain, and got up and heated
it up, and used it. My headache was gone within 4 min. 癒しだった。Sometimes, we
get those small promptings. If I had continued to have a headache, I'm sure
life would've gone on normally, but Heavenly Father, loves me, and doesn't
want me to feel pain. So he helped me, but it was still my choice. Look at
that I just through 3 principles into one thought. God really does love us
and want to help us, but we have to give him our heart. And then he will lead
us where we should go.
To this I testify

have a wonderful
week.
