Chapter 26
So I decided to write as if I were writing in a journal or if I were writing a story in a book.
So far, this has got to be a boring book.
But that'll change. Lately, I've been wanting to shoot myself in the face. The days have been going on forever and I get irritated a lot. Mostly it's been coming from my companion and the rest of it from everyone else. But the worst part is me because I'm letting them get to me.
The area that I'm in has had a growth in the beginning of the transfer but slowly it's been dying down. After a missionary fireside that we put on not too long ago, the Zone Lords inspired me to have a Zone Find. The Spirit really influenced us in this decision. It happened yesterday. There were 20 missionaries in my area. 3 Stakes. 24 Wards. There were barely enough missionaries for one per ward, but that was okay. Some of our Ward Mission Leaders fell through on getting us a list of names for the missionary to stop by and some of the Bishops just didn't care about missionary work.
We asked a bunch of members to come out and go on splits with the missionaries so that they could have missionary experiences. It was from 6:30 - 9 yesterday. We saw tons of success. At the missionary fireside, one of our mission presidency, President Atkinson, invited all the missionaries to sit up on the stand. As soon as we did, it was really noticable of the abundance of spirit that filled the room. That was attributed to the consentration of missionaries in a single area. And so it was with my area, because of the consentration of missionaries, the Lord opened up a window of opportunity and poured His Spirit out towards the Missionaries, the members, and those who the missionaries visited.
By the glory of the Lord are all things within our capabilities possible.
And now, transfers are next Wednesday... I hope I stay.
