Do you like my new "Suit"? |
So all of this Star Wars stuff is all over the stores around here. And there was a shirt that says, I find your lack of faith disturbing, and I was about to get it and I was going to wear it over my shirt at the mission conference, I was talked out of it because a seventy was coming, but this random guy was looking at the shirt too and I was laughing at the image of me going in front of a general authority, and the guy said, "I wish I had faith" now I totally thought this was some member playing a joke, so I turned and said "I have some!" Then he gave me a weird look and I realized he was being real, so I had a chance to talk to him about faith, moral of the story is, I'm going to convince my president to let me see Star Wars because i used it to contact that guy.
Pretty good I thought, also I have been saying random Star Wars quotes all the time because I think it's super funny, for instance we were and this guy on the phone said no three times so I said in my best Sidious voice "no no no! You must die!" And was the only one laughing, it was pretty great. But on a slightly more spiritual note, there was a lesson where we talked a lot about pride, and I realized that pride has a lot of different faces, in the scriptures there is no such thing as good pride so said president benson in his beware of pride talk, but I realized that I was taking the wrong kind of pride in my investigators, so I had to change my way of thinking, now I am trying to be humbled at their progress, so this week all of you have to have a pride check, sadly you will find more than you thought, but that is good! Recognition is the first step to repentance! So get going!
Well hope you all have a fantastic week! Byeeeeee!
