FORT the WORTH of Souls: Invitations out the WAZOO

Invitations out the WAZOO

Sooooo this week went by so fast! We met with as many people as possible, both members and nonmembers, and did our best to invite them to do something that would help with missionary work. We are planting those seeds everywhere we go.

INTERVIEWS- I had my interviews with President AND Sister John this week. Of course, it was exactly what I needed. They both have wonderful council. One thing that was twisting my brain was our key indicators. His council was to focus on my invitations rather than focusing on how many people accept them. I loved that idea and adopted it right away. That's helped me find more joy in the work already.

SICK - I don't know what it was but starting on Wednesday my tummy was not feeling good, but we kept hauling. I was fine as long as I had some cool air on my face from time to time. However, I woke up very early on Saturday morning feeling like death. I won't go into any type of detail but just know that it all came out somehow. I didn't eat much that day. I had 3 pieces of toast and an applesauce. Sunday was fast Sunday so I had 6 crackers for breakfast and then fasted til dinner. (I didn't have an appetite anyway so fasting was no biggie) still feeling a little iffy but I think I'm finally in the clear today.

AN INVITATION FOR YOU- There are so many people in the world, and we are all different. BUT, no matter how different we are, we can all be kind and respectful. Differences sometimes scare us and stops us from branching out. My invitation to you this week is to let differences make you curious. Branch out to those who you see as different. What can you find in common? What do you love about them? On my mission I get to see so many different types of people from so many different backgrounds, religions, cultures, etc. They have all changed my life and the way I see things, and it's all for the better. Everytime you learn, you're a little closer to seeing things the way God does, that's the biggest blessing to me. I promise as you reach out, your fear will start to fall away, you'll grow meaningful relationships, you'll appreciate differences, and your purpose on earth will become clearer to you.

I love yall! And I truly wish the best for yall, that's why I invite you to do things. I invite you to change and get out of your comfort zone because joy is found out there.
