Ya'at'teh' everyone,
So this week was pretty good, we had Zone Conference, and we did a lot of service, most of which was painting. Not a whole lot to talk about, but we finally caught the devil mouse in our house!
As you can see the trap barely got his nose. This little stinker was smart... we had 3 traps out, one had poison in it, and he didn't go for that one. Then we had 2 other traps and this mouse had gotten all the bait off of both of them, so we put a fruit snack on this one that way it wasn't easy for him to get it off. He is fast and smart and we have been trying to get him for a while. He is pretty big, too. But he almost got away from this one cuz the trap barely got his nose. So that was exciting.
Umm today we will be in Gallup, and I told Elder Hardman to bring his gloves so we can play catch so hopefully that will happen. I will have Elder Cox take pics.
Spiritual thought is a poem by William Ernest Hendley...
Out of the night that covers me
Black is the pit from pole to pole
I thank whatever gods may be
for my unconquerable soul
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud
under the bludgeonings of chance
my head is bloody but unbowed
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade
Yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find me unafraid
It matters not how straight the gate
How charged with punishments the scroll
I am the master of my fate
I am the captain of my soul
I really like this poem because it really illustrates how it doesn't matter what is going on around us, what happens to us, or what other people do to us. We are the ones who are responsible for how we come out of it all, we are the ones who make the choices to determine where our souls will end up. We cannot blame others or the circumstance for what we choose (#AntiFaithList). In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen
I hope you all have a good week, love you!
Elder Takis
