Praise "JEEBUS"

Wow this week was veryyyy slow. we went on exchanges and i wish i could share the full details but that day was all sorts of tiring !! hahah but i got to stay in el dorado with sister mattice & sister miles and it was such a party !! we honestly didn't have much to do besides discuss a lot of things !! but on Wednesday my comp had to help another sister out so I had to train all on my own and it was fun but definitely weird hahah . . . other than that we got Ethan to come to church && as good as it was...he joined on zoom and blew up the zoom chat and after the speaker was done he commented "praise JEEBUS" so you could only imagine how hard I was laughing in the pew of the church building hahahah I cannot with him. we had hung out with him on Saturday night and got some Mediterranean food & it was so Gucci I havent had a good meal like that in so long, it was NICE :') 

but one thing I have really come to realize is how inadequate I am :)) I do not know much about the gospel, neither am I the most skilled, but God has called me as a missionary & He has called you too. God's called the weakest things of this world to do the greatest work & thats something that gives me hope everyday :) knowing that He knows my faults & flaws yet still sees my infinite potential gives me the energy to keep going. God called Joseph Smith to restore the gospel solely because he was unlearned. Joseph knew he didn't understand & God used that to bring to pass something eternal & sacred. Bringing things into this perspective really show the capability you have to influence someone else with the power of God on your side :) anyways I hope this lil insight will help yall too. aroha nui, have a great week !

SO my soa & I (comp & I) were walking around temple grounds in Newport Beach which is covered by a different mission. (Yes we have permission to go there). We saw a lot of missionaries & we took our tags off because we didn't feel like talking with any of them (it was a ROUGH week for us to say the least) & yet somehow some elders managed to talk to my soa while I was looking at the temple. She walks away with them & I was like ?!...

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...

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...
