God Always Knows Best!

Hey Everyone!
Its been a while, Uh ya its been a while!
This past week has been kind of an emotional roller coaster to be quite honest with you guys! Filled with a lot of crazy turns but hey that's what missionary life is all about right?
I guess to start off this week we were able to teach the Sumpter's quite a bit which was really nice! They have come so far and we really focused on getting them prepared for their interview on the 30th of this month and they were doing really awesome and then yesterday morning we got the text saying that CJ had gotten very sick and they wouldn't be able to make it to their interview.. It has been kind of hard for me because this means we are going to most likely have to push back their baptism which means that I will not be able to be there for their baptism which sucks.. But we talked to president and we might be able to have it, it just depends on if he will have the time to make it back out here before the end of transfers. If it works out I will be more than grateful, but if not its ok I trust in the lords timing for all things. And they might just need to wait a little longer. If its one thing I have learned as a missionary its that God truly knows when HIS children are ready, and when it will impact their life the most!
This week we were also able to teach Sister Caine's more about the Book of Mormon and we were able to answer a lot of her questions that she had. It was pretty cool to see her sights change. she committed to pray and read the book of Mormon and keep her heart open to what she reads which is awesome! I know that she will make an amazing member! She could touch so many people's lives!
Other than that not a lot has gone on this past week. Elder Stephens and I have been trying our hardest to get out and find and have had awesome plans through out the week and no matter how set they were something would always come up and keep us from being able to fulfill them which is frustrating but hey that's missions for ya right? We just keep trusting in the Saviors timing and we know that he will lead us to those that he has been preparing for us! I like to think of the song from the movie Tangled but instead of mother knows best its God knows best! haha man that's another good one ;)

For my spiritual thought this week I wanna talk about what we learned in the missionary broadcast! they Focused a lot on the doctrine of Christ and how important it is that we as missionaries use this in every aspect of our work. Elder Bednar said something during the broadcast that has really stuck out to me. He said that the Doctrine of Christ is meant to be used as a whole. Not as a check list, but as a whole TRUE DOCTRINE. I know this to be true. Because with out one you cant have the other. I am so grateful for living prophets and apostles who guide us in this marvelous work today. I know this is gods true church once again on the earth today. This week I will be hitting my 6 month mark and though I still have a lot to improve on, I know that If I serve heavenly father with all my heart, Might, Mind, and Strength that he will bless me and will continue to turn me into the man I'm suppose to become!
I love you all and hope you have a wonderful week!!
