well I only know like 1% of anything compared to God....

So the random idea I have to day is that biking up hills both ways in the 99 degree weather with the air so thick that it its raining without a cloud in the sky, is what life is all about haha (its really not that bad)

But this week has been full of lots of biking and not to much really happened, it was a slow week but still a lot of fun. I'm trying to think what happened but all that really comes to mind is we were invited over to this less active members home for dinner and when we got to our surprise they had made……Spaghetti!!!! Right after dinner the father just disappeared to his little “man room” to watch a movie  and we started to talk to the 25 year old daughter and she started asking us about where the churches stand on gays….. so we told her, and talked about what the bible says and she said something to the effect of “well I'm right 99% of the time and I feel that they should be able to do what they want to and even if god came down right now and told me that it was wrong I would have a hard time believing him.”
………………………………………………………..needless to say we didn’t say to much about it after that except elder butts said “well I only know like 1% of anything compared to God so that’s why I trust him” then I just had to throw in a joke and said “well God did make Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve” then we just invited her to pray about it. Then they signed up to feed us on my birthday. They still don’t want to come to church…….

We also talked to a man as we walked (he walks all day every day just around down town.) This week we were talking to another man on the street that we had talked to before when this man we had walked with came up to us and said come with me to my house I have something to show you……..o and he is very southern so you all would have heard something like this jkahdskfj jklasdhfjl kkdfioeo llfncdjye da bjfdashkl home……… and what do we do? We go. His house is all run down and he invites us to sit down on the bed and he sits on a little chair with a fan blowing right at us and he pulls out 3 packs of smokes and just starts puffing away. We taught a little about the doctrine of Christ, we don’t know how much sunk in but he invited us over tomorrow for lunch and we will see how that goes….. we might invite him to go to a a fast food place with us and we will get him something to eat, but non the less its going to be way fun!

Well I got to do go I care about all of you so stay safe and strong
