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 !

I loved this week

This week was one for the books !! It was a crazy busy week & the days just flew by. I realized I don't share too much about my week or anything too spiritual lol but that can change !! So to start off, Monday night our entire mission got chastised by the president lol. Then Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday we had exchanges & Sunday we had a baptism with David !!   It was a week of A LOT of self reflection & seeing the areas I can improve . . . plus a lot of fun !!   This weeks exchanges I got to be with Sister Ratcliff, Sister Mattice, and Sister Ware !! I learned a lot from each sister & since it was a self reflecting week...I asked each sister & every return missionary member what they learned from their missions && believe it or not, every single one of them said they learned their identity as a daughter of God. It was tender to hear because I do forget my identity as Heavenly Fathers daughter, very often. Seeing the past experiences of my miss...

Thanks Pickles!!

Kia ora family&friends !!  I have heard rumors that our world is still crap. That has to be rough out there. I feel so protected and safe here. But it was a great week, we were able to invite David to be baptized...if you dont remember, he was* Atheist about 1.5 weeks ago! Except he just barely sent us a YouTube link to why mormonism is false and asked us to give it a thought . . . so keep him in your prayers :))  Another amazing person we have met is already a member, but she got out of a psych ward 3 weeks ago. When I saw her, you could tell she was not in the right mindset and just overall her vibe was depressing. She struggled a lot feeling God's love, but she wanted so desperately to feel it. We taught her about the Atonement of Christ and left her with a few tasks to fulfill. This last Saturday we saw her, and I have never seen the Atonement of Christ comfort, care, and heal someone as much as I did that day. I have such a strong testimony of the reality of Christ's ...

Choose to Stay ...

hello my family and friends♡ I miss each one of you so much !! I love each of you as well. I have been searching every reason as to why I'm here. Why am I apart of this church? Why am I a member? Why do I decide to go to church every Sunday? Why did I decide to make covenant(s) with God? **Why do I choose to stay?** For me Ive noticed the gospel has given me structure. It is something that allows me to recognize there is greater potential in myself as well as in others. I feel like I have been stripped to the core by trials and its only been 2 months in my mission waaa hahah. Every aspect of my testimony is being tested and every detail of it is being questioned and tried by God to strengthen me and my testimony further. IT. IS. HARD. Despite these challenges and trials, I choose to stay because of the feelings I have received from God testifying of this gospel. No matter the experiences, no matter the trials, no matter the hurt, anger, shame, hatred, envy, and sorrow that we can e...
