This week was so awesome!
At the beginning of the week we went to teach Brenda M. She is an investigator that has been having an issue believing that Joseph Smith saw Jesus Christ AND God. She believed that no man could see God. Going into the lesson, Sister McDermott and I were kinda not wanting to be there because she is so hard to teach. Knowing that giving up on her wouldnt help anything, I decided to say a prayer in my heart that I would know how to teach her and help her to understand what we were teaching. I asked Heavenly Father if he would use me as a tool so that Brenda would know for herself the truth that we had given her. She was able to figure it out for herself and overcome that problem that was holding her back from progressing. We were able to help her understand that she was interpreting the scriptures wrong by asking inspired questions. When she finally understood it was the best moment! It made my whole day! I was so happy for her!! She has had this issue for almost 6 months! What an incredible feeling it is to help someone come closer to Christ and learn more about the gospel! Its the best calling ever!
On Tuesday Sis McDermott and I built a fort in our living room!! It was awesome! We were having a competition with the elders to see who could build the best fort. Then on Thursday we went to district meeting and the elders didnt even build one! But ours would have won anyways:) We even slept in it two nights! haha!
Ok so anyone that knows me knows that I LOVE pop tarts. So we went to the store to get another case of water and thats all we were planning on getting....until I saw the pop tarts! We got two boxes of them and they were both gone in 3 days....THEY WERE SOOOO GOOD! We also got a watermelon at the store. I told Sis McDermott that we should just get a small one but she insisted that we get a big one... so we did! We are taking it to Courtneys house today and hopefully we will be able to eat it all!
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Saturday afternoon.... We were at home eating lunch and Sis McDermott was in the bathroom. All of the sudden I hear the all to familiar call of "Sister Draney! Draney! Draney!! Come here! Gross!!" So I go see what is wrong and grab my broom cause when she calls me like that it usually means there is a bug I need to kill. I get into the bathroom and there is a slug on the floor! Gross! How the heck does a slug get into our apartment!? It was gross and Sis McDermott was freaking out and hiding behind the fridge while I took the slug outside. It was quite entertaining!
Remember how I said we ate two boxes of pop tarts in three days? Yeah so Sis McDermott designated the highest cupboard as the unhealthy cupboard. We put the most unhealthy food we have up there so as Sis McDermott says... We have to get on our tip toes to get what we want and in doing so burn the calroies before we eat unhealthy stuff! Ha its great!
Mothers day was the best! Skyping everyone was so fun! Also talking to Katelyn was my favorite part! Its crazy to think that we are both missionaries! I love it!
It was a great week! I hope y'all had a great week as well! Love you all!
