It has been a harder week for some reason people have chosen
this week to not call or text us back at all. However we were able to find this
really cool guy who is a buffalo rancher and we are going to start teaching him
and doing service with him around his ranch! So that is super exciting!
We went to a natural arch and a waterfall and hiked around
both there which was super fun. And we go some sweet pictures which is all that
really matters anyways. At the waterfall we were at the top of a canyon, the
Fall was frozen and there was a lot of snow so but we wanted to get closer to
it so we hiked down and about 50yds from the rim we realized this was probably
not a very good idea there was snow up to my waist deep and HUGE rocks and crevices
we were falling in but we got down and then to the falls and then we hiked back
up the other side. It was sweet and one of the harder hikes I have been on in a
long time. It was so wonderful just being up in Creation though you can see so
much of the love that Father in Heaven has for us just by the amount of detail
that He has put in to everything around us. God has truly planned out
everything and He knows what is best.
I have been thinking a lot as well about the different traps
that the devil has put into this life. We have one man that we go and visit who
is a little bit on the older side and He is pretty lonely so He goes on to the
internet and "talks" to these women from all over the world. He does
not at all realize that all of it is a huge scam. He has become blind to the
tricks that so many people try and pull on others. It is the same in life there
are many opportunity’s to "find" paths that look really fun and
appear very appealing however once you start walking on these paths you begin
to lose a lot of the light once was there until you become completely ensnared
in the dark. It might take years or it might be a very quick and sudden drop. Whatever
the case light becomes harder to find the more distance you put between Gospel
truths and standards. Always be vigilant for the "scams" of the
adversary.
Thank you Brother Andrews for your letters! They always come
at a time when I need them.
Happy Birthday Brother Sandberg!
Love you all!
