It's been a good past two weeks as always, but I can't say I
remember everything that has happened. It's weird that since I do the
same thing every single day, everything just starts to blend together.
Well here is something interesting, which isn't
necessarily exclusive to this week,
but for awhile now, everyone we contact is either from the SDA, the son
or daughter if a missionary of some other religion, or already a member
of the church. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it is just has a
very low probability of anything happening.
Another
interesting thing, We met this dude who korokarewe s (cuts toddy) on 12
coconut trees every day. I thought that was pretty cool, because it
entails climbing up in
the morning, cutting a branch for the sap, and then returning in the
evening to collect. That's a lot of climbing, the dude has clout.
Anyways, for a spiritual thought.
So yesterday we had a
large botaki for an elder's 21st birthday (which is a big cultural
thing here), and a new sister missionary was assigned to give the
spiritual thought. Well, she was pretty bad at the
language, like everyone is when they first come. It just reminded me of
how bad I used to be and how far I've come in the language. It shows to
me how willing the Lord is help us learn and grow. And then I realized
that I've grown in other ways too, spiritually,
intellectually, etc,. The lesson here is that if we apply ourselves,
the Lord is willing to help, so I would invite everyone to give it a
try.
Anyways, I tangiringkami
