Elder Vickers-Jacklin : The Poetry Continues

Okay so my investigators the lemons are doing so well we have had two lessons with the lemons her husband nick will be the hard one to get to but the spirit will guide him I can feel it. We think we can go dunking in October-november with that family.

We do work with alot of less actives and we have the Ashby family that we are working so hard. Sister Ashby has five kids three boys and two girls that are twins. The twins are doing so well!!! Jackie is going to seminary now and Cassie well she just loves the scriptures. Sister ashby says she can't keep Cassie away from the scriptures. Jackie came to church and it made me so happy to see.

Our other Investigator luzella we have not heard from her or seen her in two weeks, me and Elder morwood think something might of happened and it doesn't feel good we try to go to her house every day to see if she's home but she never is and her car is there all the time. So we have just been praying for her.

The weather out here is nuts it changes all the time and the sky changes colors sometimes the lightning will go red and it is so cool. I dislike the humitity very much and it rains alot. But the humidity is going away and fall is coming so yaaaa!!!!

So we do get fed by members but alot of the time we have to cook for ourselves so ya we about 50/50 on the food situation.

Another poem for yall

I'm here to stay
I was with you in the beginning.
I was your brother, I was your friend.
God called us forward we obeyed , he called me forth, you had to stay.
He asked me if I was ready, I knew today was the day.
I had to leave you, but you knew the way.

Time in the world is different, nothing was the same.
Many people followed me many fell away.
I taught them like I did before, I'm their brother, Im their friend.
But, something wasn't the same.
I had a job to do, Today was that day.

I prayed to the Father, for you my brothers and my sisters .
The pain came my way.
I pleaded with the Father.
Father help me , is there some other way,
But, if there's not, come what may, and let it stay.

Confused and lost you rejected me, you called me names.
What happened to you, do you not remember the way.
I'm your brother, I'm your friend, But still you cast me away.

They took me bound me striped me from thy way.
They beat me , spit upon me, threw me astray.
Did they not remeber me, why is it not the same.

They made me suffer as I carried my cross down the alley way.
I saw you, you saw me, and you still turned away.
They nailed me, raised me, I hung there looking down.
I saw you , I saw you turn and walk away.

I understand my brother, my friend .
I too am sorry this had to be the way.
I'm sorry you had to see me in so much pain.
But know my brother, know my friend, this was father's way.
For you my brother , I suffered the way, that one day you wouldn't be afraid
Don't worry now my friend I forgive thee this day.

I called upon the Father and he took me away.
Three days later as the sun came out to play
I walked out of the tomb, I came forth out of death hiding place.

I found you in the streets as I did before ,
I know you remember that day.
You looked upon me , but this time you did not turn away.
Tears filled your eyes, as you looked at my face, but your eyes still held there place.
I walked to you my brother, I dried your tears that tried to fall from your face.

I took you in my arms, I knew you loved me, and I know you still do even to this day.
Don't worry my brother, don't worry my friend.
The work will soon be over, but know the pain has ran away.
I have forgiven thee, there is nothing more to say.
Walk thy paths that I have showed you , you know the way.

I need to have someone, here to lead the way.
Can I trust you my brother, or will you turn away
Fish upon the water, but not upon the sea
Fish along side me my brother, fish along side thy brothers way.

I still have to go see Father, but don't let that worry thee .
I leave you this promise, when the work is all over, I will find thee
When the work is all over , we will walk upon the sea.
Then you will see that things had to be the way they had to be.
Then the angels will be able to sing halilauia, halilauia he is the king.

Things have changed a lot sense then.
Peace has finally found the hearts of men.
I walk the streets , people look upon me,I walk twords the sea people fallow me.

I see thee sitting on the shore, searching waiting patiently.
I walk up to you and said come fallow me.
We walk upon the water , hallowed we be.

You have done well my friend my brother .
You have done what I asked of thee.
The Father is happy and so shall we be.
The work is now over and I'm here to stay with thee.
