"How was your week?" "Week-full"

Hey family, 

It's been another week full of knocking doors and 7 year olds saying "Hi, We're not gonna do this" then shutting the door. Lots and lots of tracting. We talked to a little under 100 people, but knocked for over 12 hours. Guess how many people became investigators? 4. 

I had an interview with President and I kinda broke down. I told him how I was frustrated because the work we are putting in is not coming out in numbers, and It looks like we aren't doing anything. 
He looked me straight in the eyes and said "Sister Webber, did you just say you knocked for 5 hours straight?" 
I said,  "Yes president."  But I thought,  that isn't the point! I nodded with tears filling my eyes. 
He said "And you didn't go home until after 9?" Again I nodded. "I am so proud of you! Numbers don't matter, you are showing to Heavenly Father that you care enough to not give up. I am so proud of you!" 
He made sure I didn't look at numbers, He told me to work hard, but don't let the numbers control me. Wow he said all the things I needed to hear. 

Other than knocking doors, and president interviews, we went to the temple. GOSH I LOVE THE TEMPLE!! Everyone go. ALL the time. ok? Seriously the best place in the world. It came and went way too fast. The church is true. I am sure of it. If it wasnt I wouldnt be here in Oklahoma in this 100+ degree weather trying to invite people to listen to the truth. I would be here, because this is hard, and if it wasn't true it wouldn't be worth it. BUT it IS true, and it IS worth it. And I am learning, and growing so much.

I am so grateful for you family. We went to a children's home, where kids who were taken by DHS go and they are 11-17 years old and man they are so lost. I wanted so badly to stay there all day and give them the attention that they all deserved. If you listened to one, 5 others would be fighting for your attention. It was so sad. I am so grateful for the family God blessed me with. I am so grateful for the parents I had that loved me enough to tell me no. Who taught me right and wrong, and how to work hard. So thank you family, and Mom and Dad. I really love you and I am so grateful for each and every one of you. I love you so much!! Have such a good week. And please keep me in your prayers. Pray that I can be more positive, but also that we can find a family to teach. Pray for Sister Allred, and Pray for Ponca City. Thank you for everything. I love you!!
Love, Your Oklahomie, 

Sister Webber
