1/2 way!

Hello all!!! Week 6..oh my heck!! Coming up on 9 months so that means I am half way there...or am I just starting? You be the judge!!

Well, Brothers and Sisters, Heavenly Father is a loving Heavenly Father. I have learned so much this week. Specifically, its not always Satan "trying to get you" BUT Heavenly Father seeing if you are going to be obedient. We had so much cancelled appointments and back ups blow up. We could have quit and stopped working BUT we didnt! We found work. We served, we taught, we tempted to find. And the week was bittersweet. This week I gained a testimony of the hymns! THey are powerful. So much doctorine and principles taught in them. Lately I have been humming "Come Come Ye Saints"   How grateful I am for the hymns. We have even been able to sing to some members. What an experience. i invite you all to read the Preface in the front of the hymn book. Lots of promises and direction from the Lord. (I am running out of time!! ack!!)

Hmmmm...what else?? I had an amazing letter in my head. I want you all to know how great I know this work is. This week we had no investigators at church but we had 5 less actives we are teaching come!! WOW!! What a tender mercy!!

I hope you all have a great week!! Thanks for all the letters. I really felt the love this week!!

love always, Sister Ploth.

Come, come, ye saints, no toil nor labor fear;
But with joy wend your way.
Though hard to you this journey may appear,
Grace shall be as your day.
Tis better far for us to strive
Our useless cares from us to drive;
Do this, and joy your hearts will swell -
All is well! All is well!

Why should we mourn or think our lot is hard?
'Tis not so; all is right.
Why should we think to earn a great reward
If we now shun the fight?
Gird up your loins; fresh courage take.
Our God will never us forsake;
And soon we'll have this tale to tell-
All is well! All is well!

We'll find the place which God for us prepared,
Far away, in the West,
Where none shall come to hurt or make afraid;
There the saints, will be blessed.
We'll make the air, with music ring,
Shout praises to our God and King;
Above the rest these words we'll tell -
All is well! All is well!

And should we die before our journey's through,
Happy day! All is well!
We then are free from toil and sorrow, too;
With the just we shall dwell!
But if our lives are spared again
To see the Saints their rest obtain,
Oh, how we'll make this chorus swell-
All is well! All is well!
