My cookies are in high demand!

I can't believe that another week has come and gone so quickly! Sometimes I feel like the days drag on, especially between the hours of 1 to 4, but the weeks really do fly by!

Tracting. We've been tracking a bunch this week. One day we tracted for about 4 hours. It's giving us results though! We got a new investigating family!! He's a disabled ex-semipro football player. He's a BIG dude. He's one of the sweetest, most humble guys I've ever met. His wife is super nice as well. They have 4 daughters. They're all under the age of 13. Just an awesome family.

"Weed is God's drug for me and for you. And everyone else isn't suppose to judge us!"

*awkward pause*

"Wait you guys don't smoke weed do you? Ahh (bad word). Now I feel all bad inside guys. I'm going to go smoke some more. I'll see you guys later."

This was our conversation with a nice gentleman in budget sweets. Turns out he's one of the biggest weed suppliers in the area. He assumed we knew that and we went to him for weed haha. Also, it turns out he's not interested in learning about the gospel unfortunately.

My cookies are in high demand! We have an incentive program set up for members who help us with missionary work. Those who we give assignments to, and they accomplish them, we give them cookies. Well apparently word has gotten around that I make some pretty good cookies. Now everyone wants cookies! Hopefully we can make this work to our advantage and get more members trying to do some missionary work!

Neil A. Maxwell in 1974 said, "My friends, there are footprints to follow where we must go--made not by a leader who said, safely from the sidelines, “Go thither,” but by a leader who said, “Come, follow me.” And our mortal leader is a prophet who is showing us how to lengthen our stride."

Jesus Christ is our ultimate example. He gave us a perfect demonstration of how we should live our lives. As we strive to become more like him, we can take the teachings of modern day prophets and prophets of old to help us. Thomas S. Monson is called by God to instruct us in this time how we can improve ourselves to better become more like Christ. Take his advice. It will bless your lives exponentially.

I love all of you guys! Have a great week! :)
