Where
does the time go?
This week flew by!
I have felt pretty frustrated because
this area has a lot of potential. Lots
of good things could happen here, but we just don’t seem to be making them
happen. I feel good about the things we are doing, but I am not being very
patient about how fast the work is moving here. Just gotta keep plodding along.
We were in a place called Letchworth
Garden City a lot this week. It’s a
pretty decent-sized town, and we were finding a lot of people. We set up lots of appointments and then they
all canceled or just didn’t show up. I hate that. If there is one thing I cannot stand in
missionary work, it’s hosed appointments -- and they happen every day, I swear.
We did get one new investigator this
week. Her name is Nicole. Her parents
are from Ghana I think, but she was born here. She believes in God but doesn’t
have a church to go to. Bingo. We were
talking a lot about God, how he loves us and is our Heavenly Father, and we got
on the subject of Him having a body. She
disagreed. I showed her some wonderful
verses in the Bible and blew her mind! God definitely has a body, how could
Moses talk "face to face" with a God that didn’t, and if bodies were not
so important, why did Jesus Christ need to be resurrected? The church is true.
We are created in God’s image.
Imma go play some badminton.
