Sorry I didn't email last week! I spent most of the day with my zone so I didn't have time, plus I had just been sick with the flu the week before (we think I was cursed by the witch because it was right after we taught her) so there wasn't much to write about. Honestly, all the weeks are blurring together and I don't know what happened when haha. We had Zone Conference this week which was really great, as usual. President Wong is really amazing, I'm sad I only have one more transfer with him!
Our Zone Conference was focused on becoming better teachers. President Wong shared an object lesson where we had a big pitcher of water which represented all the knowledge of the gospel that we have that we want to share with others and we were supposed to pour all our knowledge into somebody's cup. Obviously when we poured the knowledge we had into the person's cup it just would overflow and get the person wet. We talked about how we need to be better at focusing on other people's needs and figuring out how big their cups are. Some people have huge cups and they are so ready to hear all about the gospel, other people have tiny cups and they can only take a little bit of knowledge. God knows where they are at so as long as we rely on Him and listen to the Spirit, we will be able to help people come unto Christ, no matter how small of a step it is!
I don't have much to share from this week, it was a little slow, but God is good! He is so aware of our every need, even the needs we don't know we have. He can give us the strength we need to do things we didn't think possible if we trust in Him. One of my favorite quotes by Gary E. Stevenson says "You have the Savior of the world on your side. If you seek His help and follow His directions, how can you fail?" It's so true! It's impossible to fail when you trust in the Lord. He knows what you need that will help you to become more like Him!
I hope you all have an amazing week!
Love, Sister Rigby
