Week 40: the Grind is real

Today, I woke up at 3 am for some reason, and I thought it was 6:30. So I turned on the lights and woke up my comp. After a few minutes, and being mostly conscious, Elder Pfeifer was like "wait, my phone says it's 3:18." And then I looked at my phone and it said 3:19. Lol, he threw his watch at me, and we tried to go back asleep.

This week was really good. We were working hard. We set a lofty goal to find 7 people this week, and 5 is what we normally top at. But we pushed, and found 9 people this week! And they all actually seem interested, which is great. We didn't have any gaps in our schedule, or waste any time this week. 

We've also gotten like 6 referrals this week. And normally when we get those they have no idea why we have their info, or they don't exist, but everyone we got this week is real, and actually requested to meet with us!!

I also messages this random guy on Facebook who liked one of the church posts, and I asked him if he wants to meet with missionaries, and he said "Yes yes yes Amen." So I got his address, sent him to the sister missionaries on Amarillo, and they sent me a message that he went to church and asked to get baptized! And I only messaged the guy this week!!

Something that I've been doing recently is marking in blue every name for Jesus Christ, God the Father, or any time it says "His, him, he," or things like that. I'm going through all the standard works with that, and it's been really helpful. I feel like things this week have just been re-emphasizing how all of my studies should be focused on how ____ brings me closer to Christ. Everything needs to be focused on him, or it will not last. The good things in life only last forever if they themselves are built on the foundation of Jesus Christ.

Love all you guys! That's all I have for this week. God Bless

Week 44: Do you want to be happy?

I feel like I've been asking myself this question a lot this week. A few days ago it felt like all the doubts I've ever had came bac...
