Here I am learning that all prayers are answered, no matter the wait.
There is an investigator that has been an investigator for 7 years, his family is active he is active he pays his tithing and everything the one thing that stops him is the WOW, and he gave up hope. He still went to church but he didn't believe that he could get over it but now he his sick and has to take so many pills that if he even tried to mix them he would probably die. So now he is getting baptized and he even tasted a cigar just to see what would happen and he said it was gross and threw it out. We are now going over the steps of true repentance, and told him that after he is baptized he starts a new life, and he will have the power to never go back, though the power of the Atonement. There is a lot of stories like that here. They wait so long but I am blessed to see it come to a reality. It is crazzzy I love it.
Also I remember a prayer I had when I was a little kid about how I want my life to be an adventure and I realized that that has totally come true. China, England, Hawaii, Philippines.
Thursday, realized I am a huge JERK. This one kid always comes up to us to sell us stuff and bothers us about where a member is but we never know because she only lives here when she has money to go to school. So we brush her off but at night she came up to us and was totally humble and asked us again and asked for a Book of Mormon, and showed us her house, really small and said that the member had taught her the first lesson and she wanted to learn more.... She was just fighting to have us come teach her but only when she stopped shouting did we listen.
Also we had an emergency, someone was following us and we had to stop by this BBQ stand and the only thing there was one day old chick, chicken head, Chicken intestine, or a pig ear. I ate PIG EAR. It reminded me when I went with dad to visit teach a lady in Indiana, and she asked me to feed her dogs pig ears and I didn't believe her until she handed me a legit pig ear and back then it was for dogs....
