T.O.A.S.T.

Hey Family and Friends!!! 

This week has been so good! I'll share a few highlights!

1. We have really been trying to find people that are ready to learn about the gospel. Well, we've been planning different areas to go finding and praying about it. Our prayers have been answered this week. We were able to find many people that the Lord has prepared because we prayed and listened to the Spirit. 

2. Lesson learned. T.O.A.S.T. 

On my mission there are many uncomfortable or awkward situations. Well, I've had so many. But, a wise missionary once said T.O.A.S.T. Which means, thrive on awkward situations thoroughly. I have lived that statement. When we are "all in" on the work, we are more efficient and find more joy in the work! Thriving on awkward situations thoroughly helps me to just embrace the awkward and get on with it. Let's face it. It's not that normal to knock on someone's door and talk to them about Jesus Christ. But, hey. We're supposed to be a peculiar people. :) 

I have been so happy this week! I know that the gospel truly does bring joy as we live and share it. I encourage y'all to embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ and share what you do know with those around you. I promise you that you will find more joy as you do this and you will increase your testimony as well. I know this work is God's work and everyone needs it. We can be the one to help our friend, neighbor, co-worker, family member, person we meet at Walmart, etc. :) Now sharing the gospel is a little awkward sometimes but just T.O.A.S.T.  :)
