7/27 - Dropped our car off at the Ford Garage this morning and Sister Roberts brought us to her house to do laundry. The Ford place expected us to pay cash again, like the flat tire last week. Well, we ended up agreeing that there was in fact, a fleet program and that the Mission would cover all costs with a check.
We got a phone call on the ans. machine from Denise. It was specifically for me, but Elder Powell called her. She hung on him again. I called her back and then she asked for Browning's #.
The Roberts forgot to give me my wallet, so we drove to their home to pick it up and then got one pr. slacks from the cleaners.
Browning called me tonight at 5pm and we talked about Denise. She called him. I knew Powell spent too much time on the phone talking to her. Got him in trouble!
So Sister Jett and Delvecchio had us over for chicken dinner tonight plus phone contacts tonight.
Powell is relatively nervous about talking to Browning tonight.
(MY BLESSING)
To prepare for this special blessing, I have spent a few hours over the past few weeks listening to and studying my Patriarchal Blessing.
From these studyings, I know that this is the right place to be for at this time in my life. I have taught "those who have never before heard the gospel plan" and "seen the joy on their faces."
There have also been many trials and experiences which have been a challenge to my spirituality, and unfortunately a regrettable mistake.
My Patriarchal Blessing admonishes me to "seek for things which are lofty in their scope, refined in their content, and God-like in their orientation," and that I should avoid things which would be destructive to "my mind, spirituality, and physical body."
I ask that I may be blessed as I fast and pray to become strong both physically, mentally, and spiritually and will be blessed as I am obedient; that I may seek to help the Lord more so than myself. That I may truly have a greater understanding of my calling and ability to affect others lives.
