I would definitely call this week the most humbling of my mission. I have had occasions in Australia, and here where it feels like nothing is going right for you. This week was one of them. We have had some solid people we were teaching just lose interest and never contact us back. The person we have on baptismal date has cancelled our past several meetings with her and seems like shes losing faith. Its been hard because just 2 weeks ago we were staying extremely busy. Along with this, lots of other events have transpired that have been pretty hard on me. It can be really easy to get down on yourselves in these moments, but I've learned on the mission that all these things happen for a reason! It was in no way anything Elder Bennion I did that was wrong, but more of a matter of what the Lord needs us to learn during this time.
As I've been on my mission, trying to become closer to the Savior has been a focus of my studies and behavior. 2 Nephi 22:2 has been on all of my weekly emails for I'm pretty sure the whole time I've been in North Carolina, and that is for a reason. I know when we put our trust in the Lord, the outcome may not be what we want, but the foundation in him will not crumble and he will help us through these trials in our lives.
