Hey all!!!
So sorry it’s been a bit since I’ve wrote but things have been really really busy here which is awesome news! This week our mission has been doing what we call an MTE…which I don’t even what that stands for but alls I know is it’s sweet! Pretty much all it is, is we have another missionary come out with us and coach us and help to be better missionaries…. So although it’s kind of weird to have another missionary coming around with us telling us everything wrong that we’re doing it’s good at the same time so we can become better. It’s been a really good and exhausting week at the same time but I guess what’s new! Anywhooo so how’s everyone holding up!? I hope that everyone is doing good and staying healthy, I’ve had a lot of sweet experiences lately but I think that I’ll just share one due to time’s sake…. So a few days ago we were on a street looking for a former investigator and before we got to the person’s house that we were looking for we saw another lady with her two kids, so we rushed over to talk to her a little bit and to share our message with her. So we raced over there and talked with her and everything and actually set up an appointment for this Friday so we’re way stoked for that… she seems really interested and really nice… so after we were done talking to her we went to the house that we were originally in the area for and come to find out, the house was all boarded up and the gate was chained shut…. Kind of stunk but we realized that we went down there for a reason and that was to talk to Gabriel….. it wasn’t what we planned for but it was what the Lord planned for us. It’s so crazy that so many experiences like that happen to us each and every day and that’s just a huge testament to me that this truly is the Lord’s work and that we need to put our trust in him each and every day, things might happen to us that we don’t plan for or our own personal gates that we are trying to get through are all chained up but the Lord knows the way that we need to go, sometimes the way isn’t what we plan for or the path that we need to take isn’t that really easy to see but it’s there and we just need to put our faith and trust in the Lord that He’ll guide us to where we need to go. I love this work. I love the Lord and I’m so happy to be here right where I’m at… It’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made in my life and it’s going to influence every other decision I make in the future, for the better. Life is gooood! I know this email is kind of short but so is my time…. Lots and lots of things to do. But I love each and everyone of you… I pray for you and the mountains that we all have to climb but always remember even if the gate’s closed the Lord always always provides another way around it. Stay safe, laugh a little harder, and love a little more, and always remember to stay close to the Lord and put all your trust and faith in him through the thick and thin… and if we but do that, I know that we can be a happier people. Have an awesome week everyone and I’ll be hollrin at cha later!
One Love,
Elder Ry-dawg Lawter
