1/9/2017 0 Comments Wet PaintBonjour à tous! I hope you all had a lovely first week of the new year! If it was maybe a little less than lovely... "Bienvenue au club!" hahaha, but let's make week two a week of miracles, shall we? :)
This week about half of our investigators dropped off of the face of the planet, while the other 1/4 of them dropped us off the planet. Luckily, we still have the remaining 1/4 to keep working with, and 3/4 to find!! Woo hoo!! :D Those weeks happen. One of the best things about times like these are, they always leave us with a good story for our Weeklys ;)... We were on our way home after a pretty rough day when, out of complete exhaustion (and some laziness), we decided to take the elevator up to our 'first floor' apartment. As we listened in silence to the classic elevator music, I read to myself a sign that said (in awfully large print)... "WET PAINT"... without even a moment of delay, I placed my little fingers right on the wall next to the sign... you know...just to make sure it was still wet... "Hmm...Indeed," I thought to myself. It was, in fact, very wet paint. When I realized what I had done, my pupils doubled in size. I was completely mortified... I had just done EXACTLY what President Uchtdorf, an apostle of God, had spoken of in one of his recent conference addresses... "Tell a man there are trillions of stars in the universe, and he’ll believe you. Tell him there’s wet paint on the wall, and he’ll touch it just to be sure." As I stared at the embarrassing evidence stained across my finger tips, President Uchtdorf's following question echoed in my mind..."Aren't we ALL a little bit like this?" This silly experience was memorable for several reasons...
Gros bisous à vous tous!! Soeur Wyson
