You Can't Beat Crazy!!

I have to tell you about this crazy lady. Please ask me about her in three months because this story will be much better in person. But I will do my best in writing.

So we met her last week and we're going back for our return appointment. We knock and she answers talking SUPER fast "come in come in come in come in coooome inn!" So we go in. And she just starts talking really really fast all about how she has found Jesus and she is never going back because you don't turn your back on Jesus etc. Then she tells us that SHE DON'T PLAY and points at me and sister Mathison and is like "you feel me"? We nod and at this point start to realize she is crazy. Then she tells us that we are warrior princesses and we have to "battle battle battle baaaattllee" but she in the middle of the battles she starts singing.

Like no joke.

My thought at that moment oh my goodness my life is literally a musical right now.  She continued to sing randomly and would even get up and dance every now and the. As she sang the rest of the time we were there. So crazy. Sister Mathison and I finally realized that we weren't going to be able to teach this lady because "you can't beat crazy" so Sister Mathison says "we have to get goin but will you send us out with a prayer?"

My thought at that moment "this is gonna be good"

Crazy lady is all like "YES I'd love to". So she makes us stand up and she grabs our hands and then is like "your hands are warm why they so warm?" My thought at that moment "this lady don't know what she is talking about because my hands are not warm they are clammy" Then she comes up to me and starts waving her hands around and then puts her finger on my sternum and pushes me! Then she starts asking me "did you feel that? What are you feeling? What are thinking what are you feeling (sung)"

My actual feeling at that moment: a little scared
My thought at that moment "what do I say to make the crazy lady stop"

I gave some response that satisfied her. Then she puts one hand on my back and one hand on sister mathison's back and starts pushing us together until we are literally cheek to cheek and we are doing everything not to laugh at this point. And she starts saying how "nothing will come between us" and "we are covered in the blood of Jesus, the blood the blood the blood (sung)"  Then she pulls her hands back and says "EAGLES WINGS"

We were able to leave after that's but not before she told us to be grateful grateful grateful (all sung). 
So crazy :) but those are the moments you remember on your mission :)  I am still loving every minute and I can't believe it is coming to the end.

Love you lots have a great week!
Love
