Comfort Tabs

Mexican Independence Day (Old news, but photos just arrived) - Member, Hermana Clegg, & Hermana Greenwood

Laughter is one of the best forms of medicine. Here are some things that made me and my comp laugh this week!

Members' Home - Independence Day

-I was on the phone with a less active member outside of his house, his window was open, but we called because we weren't sure we were in front of the right house. We hear him talking in the house and he sneakily closed the window while talking to me on the phone and told me he was at work....

-We almost got eaten by a dog. We knocked on the door and the gate was broken and the dog started to attack me! Luckily the person who lived there came and got the dog before anything actually happened. We now avoid that road.

 -My companion glued her lips together.

-One of our investigators asked us if we would only marry somebody who had served a mission and was a part of our church. It was quite an interesting conversation.

-Sometimes I go on autopilot when walking and so we ended up taking, as my companion calls it, an "aggressively scenic route" to get to the house.

Scriptures are the antidote for anything.

This week was a little bit harder on me, it seemed like lots of little things were building up and I wasn't in control of what I wanted to be in control of. I decided to dedicate one of my personal study times to making "comfort tabs" in my scriptures. I thought back to some of the hardest times in my life and the scriptures that helped me through them. I went through and studied and put a little tab in my scriptures for all the significant verses and chapters that have had a big impact on me.

 I HIGHLY recommend doing this. It helped me remember all of the many times that I have seen the Lord's hand in my life. And it helped me remember that I am definitely not alone now.

And now I have all these scriptures handy for the next time life tries to get me down, and I am looking forward to adding more tabs of comfort to my scriptures. :)

I hope you all have an absolutely dandy week!
