1/15/2018 Week 11: Last Week Of Training
It is about time, I hated training because it felt like an excuse for the trainer to give you all the work. I dont have any pictures this week. We are told to not to use our camera too much because it makes us look like tourist. I am teaching my companion how to play piano still. I still dont know how to play it my self but I guess that isnt a problem. We have been struggling lately with keeping appointments because of things like weather or every day responsibilities. The problem is that they dont tell us until we knock on there door and find out the reason why they havent opened the door is because the are not there. This has happened for the past 2 days. It is annoying because as a missionary you try to feel love for all these people but the thing is when they regularly dont keep commitments or appointments you struggle to keep loving them. I have been so outside of things around me. We usually dont hear about a lot of bad things because usually when we talk to people we talk about the plan of salvation and eternal happiness. So for this reason you dont here bad things unless its about the church. So we dont hear anything about politics, natural disaster, and other stuff. I am tired now because we have had to wake up early and stuff or at least earlier than normal. I do enjoy being here though, I dont feel like I am being pressured by really anything other than how much personal study I have had and it is nice because you get to be in sync with every thing the Lord has planned with you. All you have to worry about is listening to the spirit. I have learned about my self in the last few weeks, for example I realized I have slight anger problems and will freak out if something not all that bad happens to me. I need to work on that. Also I need to talk more in lessons because I have been trying to build up my listening skills and the blessing of discernment. I have done it but I have neglected working on actually teaching people which is a slight problem. I have been reading a lot in hopes of keeping my study habits good and efficient. I need a nap, I will try to squeeze in a 15 minute one today if I am lucky. I also need a haircut. Love yall and email you all next week, I realize these emails arent that great but that takes time to improve I guess.
