i dunno why the
Lord loves me so much but I'm sure happy he does. So... I'm back in
Laoag. but this is NOT the Laoag I remembered. Lesson wise. It's good.
My comp is sister Ieremia, she's from Kiribati. I love her. She's
teaching me how to be humble and just apply all the good things you see
other people do and not to feel awkward or prideful about applying those
things. hence she's a fast learner and very magaling. and a chatter.
haha i like her.
ummm... rainy season and baptism season is HERE.
WOOOOO.... makes finding like eh. but its oooookkk. Because we have this
one investigator. he's like a tatay who's 74. he's all hunched. like he
walks at a 90 degree angle almost and he doesn't have teeth and he's
about the cutest thing you ever did see. He just get's so happy about
everything we teach. The other day we were teaching him and the rooster
they were going to get for dinner they had just tied up it's legs and
it's wings. but it was alive and kicking. it let us know it too. in the
middle of the lesson it jumps OFF the table and practically lands on us
and is just squacking and making a racket and tatay takes it and bends
its neck and some angle i know is not right and puts it's head under
it's wing and we just continue teaching like nothing happened. crazy
chicken... distraction haha.
What I learned this week? most everything
has limits because we're still just weak mortals. strength, patience,
the amount of fudgie bars there are in the world. But i realized your heart
doesn't. no matter how many people i meet i still have room in my heart
for them. and i still love equally (not degrading) the people i met
before. i think thats why Heavenly Father has a bajillion million annak
(children) because you're heart can do that. also your brain has the
uncandid capacity to just keep learning and learning. anyways... i just
love you all... and i love all these people. I LOVE MY CALLING. mmmm...
ill never get sick of saying that. THE WORK GOES FORTH. JUMP ON THE
BAND WAGON or get left behind. but thats lame. one more thing i
realized. nothing matters but the gospel and saving peoples souls.
people will forget your face, people will forget if you went to the
olympics, people will forget your name. but they won't forget what you
did for them. or how you made them feel. or if you changed their life
and eternal destiny with the gospel. yup. theres my shpeel.
peace.
-Sister Hansen
