Hey guys this week was a good fun one. I taught some of the guys to wrestle, had some good work out with my companion and went on a sweet hike! right on! Can't get enough of nature (or wrestling ha!).
My companion is an awesome, lil' fun guy who just loves the mission so much and I'm excited to see how much he learns and grows here. By the way nobody has updated me on wrestling, please do ha! Anyway this week was full of changing our teaching and how to actually help people better, like really finding and meeting needs of people or as they say "The questions of the soul" and we have been doing as such. And I found that I've been kind of tense lately, so I'm working on loosening up and having some more fun; really enjoy the mission. So this week I've been thinking of a hymn where it says, "peace be still". It's a small saying but its a great one that I find helps us all. If we really think about our lives every day we get caught up on all kinds of things and distracted and busy. That's one thing I love in the Philippines, no matter how poor you are you are there having a good time with your family and friends. It's that they know how to put the right priorities first. So for me, a huge help is the simple words, "Peace be still," because of these words I can focus better on what matters best and most.
Well, love you guys!
