I'm sitting in this computer shop when two young boys are behind me
speaking in ilacano... and they're talking about me. haha but they don't think I
can understand... I let them talk for a little and then I just turn around and
say in ilacano, "yes I know my nose is big and i'm white." I wish you could have
seen the look on their faces hahah then I just laughed and took it as a
missionary opportunity. so they will be having some missionaries visit their
home (: I love knowing other languages.
I hope all you had a good week, mine was amazing. It started off with
skyping my dearest family. You're amazing, I love you. After that I was so
motivated to be the best missionary in the world. We went straight to work, me
and sister Rodelas worked hard and it definitely payed off. We found two new
amazing FAMILIES, had 5 investigators at church and 7 of the Less actives. yes I
am in Laoag. 'the hardest part of the mission' and you know what... it's pretty
awesome.
Miracles are possible if you're exactly obedient and trust in the Lord.
"Anything is possible if you just believe" cliche but it's true.
Being on a mission has taught be so many things, but I think the most
important is that I've realized how real the effects of the adversary are. I
have been set apart from the world, so I see the adversary work and just how
strong he is. He affects every single one of us and it is critical that we
protect ourselves. We are fighting a war and we need the armor of God that is
described in Ephesians 6. "We have the responsiblity to stand strong with a
shield of faith against the fiery darts of the adversary. We are role models to
the world, protecting God-given, inalienable rights and freedoms. We stand in
defense of our homes and our families... How will you resist [Santan's]
aggressive tactics? Put on the whole armor of God." Robert D. Hales
