This has been a slow week. On Sunday, Jacob and his wife, Mary got blessings to quit smoking, and it was a amazingly spiritual experience. the next day, Jacob called us and told us it was too hard, and that he had to have a cigarette.
"Do you remember that feeling when you got your blessing?" I yelled at him.
"yes, but--"
"That was GOD telling you that this is true."
"Yes I know, but--"
"Gods Not Going To Give You Anything You Can't Handle!!!"
"But you don't understand--"
"DO YOU BELIEVE IN CHRIST OR NOT?!? YOU ARE BETTER THAN YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!!!!"
...I think I was a little hard on him. Our investigators have been really flaky lately, so I was trying out my Jeffery R Holland mode. no one says no to him.
We are going over to teach him tonight and hopefully he's not angry with us. I don't think he will be. He likes us too much:) And he ended up giving in, so he'll probably be very sheepish.
So I put on Sister Allen's birthday surprise. She really loved it, so yay! It was still a surprise, although she knew something was coming. But whatev.
Nothing else to report.
I Love you all!
I Love you all!
Sister Dixon
