Mom and Dad, thank you so much for being a wonderful example of tithing. There are so many people that we teach (less actives, actives, investigators) who have such an issue with tithing. Thank you for always willingly paying tithing and teaching me to do so also. These people are forbidding blessings to come to them that God is waiting to pour on them. It breaks my heart.
We had the baptism for Sabre yesterday. She is soooo adorable. She asked me to give the talk on "baptism" and I think it went well. That makes her whole family members!
We met some interesting people yesterday. There is a man who lives in Acton (agua dulce area) who lives in a tree house. Seriously. But it is HUGE and covers several plots of land. It is so tight. He was an investigator before and we visited him to see if we could teach him the lessons again. He also gave us a copy of his book "Hollywood Unlisted" ... It is not in the approved Missionary Library, and probably shouldn't be hahaha.
One of my favorite parts of this week was finally getting to paint my nails! It is little things, ya know? Haha. But really the little things do count and add up to big things. Just like it says in Alma 37:6-7. If we are doing the LITTLE THINGS, like prayer, church, reading scriptures, GREAT THINGS can come to pass! Too many times I want results NOW and then I just have to realize that it is the little things that will make miracles happen.
Have a lovely week, all!
