4 months!!

Hey everyone! it has been a week full of miracles (as always, ha!) but i don't know if i explained that we work *all* day with social media so they took our area away... then they gave it back to us but we have had no time to work in it whatsoever (which is okay because we share it with 5 other missionaries) but none of us wanted to lose our teaching skills so we had this 2.5 hour meeting with our president last Sunday about our schedule, social media news, and etc. so after being told we could work in teaching whenever we wanted, we decided to make goals to find people instead of just goals for social media. before i say the miraculous news i just want to emphasize that we literally have not touched any work in our area for 2-3 weeks !! but when we finally made PLANS to work in our area, God blessed us with 4 referrals the NEXT 2 days. when we make plans and God sees our intent behind them, He truly provides. Its like the story of the brother of Jared. God did not tell him to go get a rock so he can make it light or tell him the exact things to do in order to breathe on the boat... but what He did was let the brother of Jared make plans and then God supported him. One thing I admire is the brother of Jared's complete humility and faith. I cant imagine myself ever bringing God a rock...but I realize that I do that every day. The effort I give can be as simple as a rock...can be as incompetent as a rock. Yet God never laughed. He was actually pleased with the brother of Jareds plans, and so He is with our efforts. Though our ideas and efforts may be perceived as "just a rock", God makes up the difference !! oh also I just hit my 4 months yesterday so thats crazy. 

well have a good week, love yall !

Pushin Through!

TALOFFFAAA!  it was a pretty alright week. I was really ran down into the ground aka exhausted from the week prior. My body really gave out on me & I got sick for a few days so I was out of the work for a second. But I'm back, lively as ever lol! This week was really hard honestly. On top of being sick, I found out one of the families I am close with from Long Beach, the dad is on his death bed. I struggled knowing this but God really pulled me thru. It was everything to me to be reminded of His wonderful plan of salvation. I feel so blessed to be in this gospel !  Some things that happened this week ☆ i got called up last minute to speak in stake conference . . . it went well lol ! I am a fan of public speaking so :) but I was very stressed. The spirit was telling me to go thru my study journal the entire meeting & I just KNEW I was going up to bear testimony but it wasn't until last minute the stake president had announced my name lol.  ☆ we had a talent night w...

Miraclllllles

Such an amazing week !! as the weeks pass on I'm getting worst & worst at writing these lol. But it was such a great week that I couldn't skip it !! There were so many miracles.  ☆ One of our friends baptism, Athena, keeps having her date pushed back because her grandma was stuck in Alaska. So, we fasted on Sunday then two days later the grandma came home !! #blessed she has a solid date of next Saturday.  ☆ Our member kept texting us to visit this random household & we finally found the time to do it a few days later. We showed up & they were so sweet !! The Letele family told us our member invited them to our wards Father Day Dance which is why they gave our member their address and number . . . I'll tell you right now there is no Fathers day dance . . . Bahahah but they're very interested ☆ We have a group of kids we are trying to teach from the same family (Schuster & Faletoi) & they randomly hit us up bc their mom invited us to their family gath...

Absence

The clock strikes 12:47am. My companions rush hurriedly to the door. I make my way down the stairs, trying not to fall asleep. As I felt the cool air brush against my face, I pull my blanket to me, angrily mumbling. I stare at the asphalt covered in droplets of rain but when I eyes revert to whats ahead of me, I deeply longed to go back in time 20 seconds prior. My heart sunk deep in my stomach as if it was the titanic. I look to my phone and the word 'absence' appeared as my daily common word from the Word Web app. I chuckled at how ironic this vocabulary applied to my very situation in the moment.   Our car was absent.   We won't go into detail but we actually found our car hahah after like 20 mins, we are just dumb ! I actually laughed so hard when I saw the word absence though because I truly felt called out by my own phone haha. But it was a wild adventure... I got to spend the night at some sisters apartment on the hardwood floor. Got 3 hours of sleep with a 6 hour me...
