We were just chatting out on this porch when a black nail polished hand shot out of the front door holding a little jar of lemon drops
"Wanna lemon drop?"
After his mom clarified that we knew he wasn't interested in the church, the rest of this mystery hand came out- long blue hair, tattoo sleeves on both arms, giant earrings, and he plopped right down with us
"Oh sweet I can talk to you then! I wasn't in the mood to be converted today."
People see the tag and they RUN from us, but we've learned to stop chasing the ones who don't want it because THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WANT THE GOSPEL NOW
On Saturday the ZLs called us absolutely frantic; this week as a zone we hadn't found a single person. "What can we do right now??"
When things aren't going our way sometimes we stress what more can we do?! All our missionaries are working HARD and they're frustrated too. I realized that all we can do right now is turn to the Lord, this is His work. We can unite in prayer and fasting, we can align our will with His so we can be lead to the people that He is preparing.
We had an "emergency zone prayer" and by the end of our night, we had found 7 families!!! In the past I've tried to give more, to try harder, to work longer, but I've learned what I really need to do is pray more.
#soeasyyoucantdoit TURN TO PRAYER THIS WEEK, IT WORKS!!!
Love big! Love hard!
