Well this last week went pretty good.  It was the last week of the transfer so tonight we find out transfer news.  Last week we went on exchanges and I went to be with Elder Frost.  but unfortunately he was sick as a dog so i got a lot of reading done while he went from his bed to the toilet.  It wasn't the funnest exchange i've had, but i sure did learn a lot.  Yesterday at church we found out that the branch finally got their copies of General Conference, so if i don't get transferred then we'll be watching them this saturday and sunday.   I'm excited for it.  I've heard about a few of the different talks so i'll be happy to watch and listen.  But if i get transferred somewhere where they have already watched it then i'm not gonna be to happy.  If thats the case then i'll have to borrow the disks and watch it on my pday or something.  So lately I've been thinking about how we worship a God of the fourth watch.  I don't know if i can explain it very well, but pretty much the help that we receive comes at the last minute, or in the last watch of the night.  Just like when Christ came to his disciples in the fourth watch of the night, it was the last one.  He could have came earlier but he didn't, their patience was exercised to the fullest and then he provided the help that was needed.  Its the same with us, as we are patient and long suffering and we hold out to the end and then just about when we're gonna give up, he comes.  So if your at the end of your rope then hold on a little longer and He will come.  When our faith is exercised to the fullest possible, further than we thought we possible, that's when we grow and change into the disciple that he wants us to be.  That is when we reap the blessings that we've sown.
Well have a great week
Love ya
