I love this video! It give me so
much strength. We watched this with a struggling member this week and i asked
myself as i was watching... what is the scariest thing i have ever done??
Hugging my sisters my mom and dad
and walking away from them at the MTC was one of the scariest things i have
ever done in my life. I'm grateful for the courage my savior and Heavenly
Father has given me this past 17ish months. God really is there. He isn't just
a good comforting idea, he is our father and has a perfect plan for each of us.
This plan isn't easy though, many of the experiences we will have her will take
courage. Through prayer we can receive strength and direction.
Lilli and Daisy Bankhead from Yucca
Valley finally got baptized! They invited me to their Baptism. Betty was kind
enough to come pick me up =) I was so happy to see them finally receive the Holy
Ghost. It was heart warming seeing brother and Sister Bankhead so happy and
proud to see their daughters baptized.
So this week we taught an member who
has fallen away. he is a kind guy, doesn't do horrible things, he doesn't break
the commandment all the time he has just FORGOTTEN. We talked about prayer and
the awesome home teacher asked... "do you pray" the less active member
said "no". Through out my mission i have learned that when we fall
away it usually come form forgetting. It happens because we stop doing one of
the most simple teachings Jesus Christ taught. We stop praying. In the bible
dictionary it says " as soon as we learn the true relationship in which we
stand toward God( namely, God is our father and we are his children) then at
once prayer becomes natural and instinctive on our part. Many of the so called
difficulties about prayer arise from forgetting this relationship." Prayer
is where it all begins. If you feel like you are slipping away... reevaluate
your prayers of if you are even praying. if you are ready to come back and want
to be happier start praying again. The spirit will tell you want you need to do
next. Enos
Me, Sister Kelly, Sister
Gonzalez and sister Brant. Sister Gonzalez and i lived together for 6ish months
in Yuccca Valley!!! She is going home this week!! AHH!!
Ok here is a funny-ish story i can
tell y’all...This last Sunday sister Kelly and I were in the church and 2 young
men probably my age started talking to us. I was absolutely freaking out
inside.... haha! Not having natural association with the opposite sex has
really taken its toll on me. I quickly ended the conversation and dashed off.
Eye contact EEEEK!!! How do you ppl in the real world do it!?!?

Christ!!!!
