Well it's been a pretty solid week! The days are starting to blur together which I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing haha. I appreciate all the emails I recieve during the week! I'm sorry if I don't get back to you but I will do my best to reply to all that are sent!
We had a couple interesting things happen today during P-day but some good news too! Soooo I met my first bible basher. Good time haha. It is the reason for my title so I will explain down below. Next, we had a family tell us they are READY TO GET MARRIED!! The problem is that we only have two weeks left in the transfer to marry them and baptize them... hehe Luke 1:37. We also had our first few lessons IN PERSON!!! SUCH A COOL EXPERIENCE!! Those were my very first 2 lessons in person ever but my comp had lessons in person before quarantine. There is just such a different spirit in the home and our ward is just the greatest so it was super cool to be able to do that!
Soooo the story... we were at the mall (9 Elders) and a man asked us simply what we would be doing right now if Christ REALLY died for all of our sins. Well... i knew my answer and that was 1. He did and 2. Serving a mission... which I am doing now. However I chose not to say much so I could hear where he was coming from. Turns out he was not trying to learn more but was trying to convince us we were wrong so for the most part, we left it alone. Sometimes in our lives we encounter people who try to bring us down to their level to make themselves feel better. It is very easy to say "Well, an eye for an eye, right?" and fire back comments to make ourselves feel better. However, there is a very important ending to that quote that needs to be remembered and that is that if everyone were to take "an eye for an eye" the whole world would be blind and nobody would have benefited from our interaction. Moroni fortified ALL places in order to prepare for an attack. Like Moroni we need to continually fortify our walls in whatever area they may be in because you never know what Satan has planned.
