¡Hola! No se preocupe no era yo
quien estaba enfermo tranquilo. This week my comp was taken down by an ingrown
toenail. Last week or two weeks ago he had tried to just pull it out and do it
himself but it didn’t work out so well this time. So on Thursday he went to the
missionary doctor and got it pulled out. the problem was that that would mean
that he would be in bed for a few days ( my comp being a slow healer) so I’m
not going to lie I was kinda looking forward to staying inside and resting a
bit because well my comp had to do it. well it comes to the first day he needs
to go do the operation and Elder Babbitt (the Elder who lives with us) falls
and hurts his arm and heads up with my comp to the doctor and then stays inside
with him for the day. well at first I will admit I was not happy but then as I
went out with elder Lopez (Elder Babbits comp) we had a days full of miracles
finding people we didn’t think we could having great spirit filled lessons. it
was amazing both me and Elder Lopez saw the blessings. Then the next day Elder Babbitt
felt better and went out with his comp to go work. I stayed inside with my comp
but all I wanted to do was go out I wanted to work. The last thing I wanted was
to stay inside. I was able to learn a lot when I was inside a lot it was great.
I had such a desire to go out and work then for the rest of the time that my
comp was stuck inside for his toe every day one of the other elders fell sick (I
think of it as a blessing) and I was able to do division and go out and work
and every time doing divisions I saw huge blessings.
Sometimes the lazy bug catches us I
think it does for all of us. That little bug that says ``you’re tired, take a
break its okay`` the bug that looks for any reason not to go out and do stuff.
We must kill that bug. I felt I this week and felt it hard. And I know that
going out and working is 1000 times more satisfying then staying inside and
listening to the bug. The lord wants us to work in whatever he has called us to
do. Weather is missionary mom bishop or teacher whatever it is. Don’t listen
when the lazy bug says take a break.
Just to let you know Agustin is
going well towards his baptism date. This week we had our first lesson where Eduardo
(the husband of Belen) listened in on a lesson. it was amazing cause normally
they are just mad and don’t want to talk to one another but when the end of the
lesson came they were talking and laughing showing a bit more of love for one
another. Truly the gospel is the key to family happiness when it is in a home
there is love and peace.
I hope you all have a great
week.
-Elder Harrison
