Rain, Transfers, and Testimonies 11/4/13

alright, first things first. last monday it was pouring rain and we had to get to the church for district meeting, so we biked through the flooding rain. we got drenched, we got soaked, and we were laughing the whole way (at least i was)

when we got to the church we had to take off our socks because they were sopping wet, so we had district meeting in bare feet .... ha....
anyway it stunk, but we got through it. Lesson learned? well.... i've been told if you tract in the rain your wife will be a lot better looking, so since i biked through a flood my wife will be a super model, ha kidding.... we missionaries have to have some kind of humor right?

alright next part, last saturday we had transfer calls and I'm getting sent to the middle of no where to a place called clarksville. i have a car now so guess i gotta drive again! i haven't driven a car in like 5 months..... i'm going to die....

i will miss centerton, i really will, its been so good for me. I'm for sure leaving it better than i found it, the ward it working hard now to be a part of the work, we get referrals all the time, its awesome.

last sunday, i wasn't sure if i should bear my testimony or not, i know its a time for the members not the missionaries, so i prayed and asked if i should. low and behold the bishop when he found out i was leaving asked if i would bear my testimony, so that was my answer.

and let me tell you, yes i got to say what i wanted to say, and it might of helped someone sure. but when i bore my teistomony, at the end i had made my own epiphany, at the end of my testimony i had said a few words that i had not thought of before. I have no need to tell you them because they were meant for me and those who heard me, also because i'd have to explain a lot in order to explain what it was i said.... anyway. One thing i learned from teaching myself is that the holy ghost WILL talk through you when you bear your testimony for the right reason. Thats how it works, thats the only way it works.

coolest part was when i finished, one of our less actives went up and bore his testimony for the first time in 20 years, it was a good testimony :)

anyway, i'm off to nowheresville
love you all DONT SEND ME ANYTHING UNTIL NEXT WEEK
i'll post the new address next monday if i can

Love you all
Elder Mac
