It was a bit of a rough week because Sister Kirkham and I were both pretty sick for most of the week. But we still were able to have some amazing spiritual, learning experiences.
Sister Stock and I found Sandra and Miles back in October, and they are an incredible couple. She sounds like Whoopi Goldberg and he sounds like James Earl Jones, and we had them read Moroni 10 with us. The Spirit was SO STRONG in their home, and frankly I could listen to them read the whole Book of Mormon! But what I love is that Sandra told us, "I'm not looking for your truth, or for my truth. I'm looking for God's truth, and I have faith that He will show it to me." She is such an amazing lady! She was going to come to church, but a friend stopped by from out of town and she was so sad. She promised us that she would come though!
We also saw Mark yesterday. I always pray that we can learn from one another as we start our lessons, and this lesson Mark made us sit back in our chair a little. We were talking about faith, and he related how much faith we have to the three degrees of glory in heaven. I had never thought about our faith level being related to our level in heaven, but it's so true! When we really have faith, and love the Savior, we will do anything for Him. If we don't have faith, Heavenly Father still loves us but doesn't give us the same rewards. Absolutely brilliant! I'll never look at the Plan of Salvation the same way again.
One final thought... If you ever come to the South, whatever you do, don't eat at Waffle House. Just don't. Enough said.
I love you all! Can't believe I'll be packing my bags and heading on a plane soon! AAAAAHHHHH!
