Moist Towelettes

This week KICKED MY TRASH lemme tell ya. The heat got unreal and we haven't even hit the peak of summer weather. One day we got heat exhaustion so bad we were seeing spots and were mega tipsy on the bikes. When we literally collapsed on our doorstep we realized we were locked out- with no water or access to AC. Sooooo we layed on the cement and cooked while listening to a BYU devo. 

The members all hate the heat too so like 2/3 of the ward moves out west for the summer leaving us with all the old people and the bishopric. Bishop said during the summer we're all just moist towelettes which was so out of pocket it made me actually pee my pants laughing at a ward BBQ. 

We spent some good time with members, one of which has a bunch of pet snakes and lizards. It was chill until we asked which snake was the meanest and they answered with, "The yellow one, but he's been lost for like a month." Yup, lost IN THE HOUSE. Loved it.

We met some super blessed people this week, but our lessons are mostly over the phone cus no one wants to go outside. Which makes for 4 cabin-fevered sister missionaries. Our solution was a homemade spa night and the entire Wicked soundtrack. 

I love yall so much! For a quick little thought, I loved these words from Paul about his ministry, "But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel; So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places; And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear."

Basically he's saying that he trusts God's purposes for his trials! He's glad that his hardships have been an example to others of how confidence in Christ is worth it! I promise that every difficulty you've experienced has done 10x more good than you think! love yall!!
