thats right everybody. i fractured my scaphoid. so now I cant do anything. i cant write legibly. i cant eat with a freaking fork. i can barely even tie my shoes. the cast smells like rotting kaka. no matter how many times i spray it with cologne the smell still there. i have to wear a plastic bags and rubber bamds every time i shower.
but- im doing absalutley legendary happy. i love every single second of missionary. one of my friends out here named Sal stopped us on the way to a members house like "hey, havent i met you before?"
luckily, i recognized him and remembered his name, "yes, Sal, how are you doing?"
and we talked for a few minutes actually about his family and God and the he got all philisophical and was like "happiness is always there. we just dont always see it." and THAT hit me. he then talked about how he has a mercedes but his friend has a lamborgini but he cant just be wishing he has a lamborghini too cuz he has mercedes.
anyways. other than that- the other absolute MEME that happened- you can tell this to anybody and they will appreciate it.
president called me.....he asks how my wrist was healing.....i say it hurts......he asks me to join the ASL (american SIGN LANGUAGE) program......i say yes.....he says ok
what?????
so i go home and start packing all my stuff and trying to find out how imma sign with one hand. then next day president calls me and hes like....theres been a change, how would you feel about staying another transfer? you need time to heal that wrist
so im like "ok"
and then president like- no more scooters Elder Owens.
so then i have to go unpack everything.
So thas my week.
At first i had a few thoughts like ...but arent transfer calls inspired? how could they make a cha ge to it? why president not get it right the first time??
but i nrealize- the expirence of thinking imma go be ASL missionary and just that mindset of change even for just one day- i grew a lot and my comp did too- thinking imma leave him. So i know it was part of Gods plan to yank us like that. gave us some good growth and now well be ready when it happens next transfer call. God literally knows PERFECTLY what hes doing. if you find yourself doubting his plan and whats going on i can promise you itll make sense eventually whether its tomarrow or in a year or after you die! Gods plan is perfect, excercise some faith and let God Prevail.
go on a mission. lookn foreward to hearing where yall get called. mission is the longest ive ever been happy, happiest ive ever been, and most peace ive ever felt. find out thas true for yourself and throw your papers in ASAP.
