This week went off as one of the more interesting ones. Got to go on exchange with another sister missionary and we got along great. She helped me out with somethings I was struggling with so that was nice. It was crazy stormy on Saturday, their was a massive storm that lasted about halt an hour but had me wondering if the tornado warning sirens would go off, but they didn't.
On our way into a Braum's (ice cream store/market) we contacted the first lady we saw and after she rejected the would you be willing to hear a breif message about our faith type question i offered if there was any type of service we could do for her. She double takes and says are you serious? then she had to lean against a car as tears started to show. After many 'are you for real?'s and a pinch to check, she told us how she had just prayed to God to send someone help her move. She showed amazing faith and I was so touched and filled with the spirit to have our offer to help and give service be a blessing to someone else. Though during most of this event a guy in the opposite parking spaces behind us just 20 feet away was yelling towards us "It's a scam!' as he was getting into his truck. Luckily he just proceeded to get into his truck and leave but every few seconds yelling 'Its a scam'. The adversary is working harder and harder everyday to draw the attention of those around us to look into the darkness instead of into the light.
I hope that we can all continue to be that light to others, but not to shine so bright as to blind them, but to guide them through the darkness.
