Letter #2 Form Sis. Judkins

This week has gone by so fast. It's crazy I'm so excited I only have 5 real days left till I can leave FOR TEXAS!!! EAHAHAHAHHA!! So excitedJ I have made many friends and met people that are wonderful examples to me.

 This week Sister Peterson and I have made some GOALS!!!

 1. Read the Book of Mormon in a Week!  I am in 2nd Nephi and Praying like a mad man to try and finish before we leave!!! I would encourage you to read to Book of Mormon this next month too. I cannot tell you what blessings will come from reading this Testament of Jesus Christ, HOW AMAAZING the gospel is.  I love it.

 2. I was in the RC (Referral Center) where we call people that have ordered something from the church off our commercial.  A women named Roberta answered her phone and I was confirming her delivery of the Bible. She said she got it and was grateful. I said do you have any questions and would you like to have them answered, we have some representatives in her area that would be happy to come over with a copy of the Book of Mormon. She said, no, right now life is really crazy, I'm taking care of my sick parents (86 yrs about) and it's really hard for her to focus on anything else really right now. She said I couple possibly have time for that. I told her I knew how she was feeling, my BF grandma is 93 and dying, and it's been really hard. Sometimes you feel alone, like no one is there to help you. I told her that if she would the message would truly help her and her family and I shared a scripture about Jesus suffering for our sins and our sorrows. I explained that Jesus Knows her and her family and their struggles and will never leave her comfortless. I said the missionaries could tell you more. She again said....I don’t know, I'm so busy....I said Roberta, I promise you, that if you take time to hear the missionaries and the message the have to share you will see the hand of God in your and your families life, that he will lift your burdens and you will be blessed...She was silent....my heart was so calm, I felt peace...."Ok" she said. She continued to say that maybe this has been an answer to prayers, and it would be nice to have the missionaries come to her house instead of trying to go to bible study when life is so hectic. I was thrilled. My heart jumped! J I started sharing scriptures and bearing testimony of Jesus Christ and the Missionary work we are doing. She said she was so grateful for me calling and said I was her angel today. I told her I am blessed to have talked to her, I told her that I know she has strong faith and that everything will be ok, that God will bless her and loves her and that she is amazing and I was grateful for her. She asked if she could get my number to call me back and my first and last name if she needed to talk to me. J I can't even explain how thrilled and excited I was... I placed a Book of Mormon and had the missionaries come over!!! OWOOOWOWOWO!!! Right!!!

 

3. Memorize the Articles of Faith again. We have 1-4 done and a few others, we have been focusing more of reading J ha ha! BOOK of Mormon in a week at the MTC is practically impossible!!! Everyone says "ya right"....which pushes me even further. Just 100 pages a day... or 110.... :) I can do it.

I love the Lord, my savior, the Prophet. I Know My heavenly Father loves and knows me, that the gospel is true and that the Word of God is on the earth. I AM READY!!!! I am ready to serve and ready to fight for God’s kingdom. Texas doesn’t know what’s cumin’ but in a few short days....the Texas Tornado is a- will be there is full force!

OH YEAH YA'LL!!!!

 

Love you all from here to heaven!!!!
