GUESS WHAT I GOT?!?!
I got to see Theran
get baptized and confirmed!!!
Guess what else I
got?! I got an assignment to train!
You thought I was
going to say I got my visa, huh? Well, the joke is on you. Or me, depending
on how you look at it.
Ok, but I really do
love it here. Mostly, I just love being a missionary. I have been
learning about how giving my will to the Lord is where it’s at.
Seriously, this is the life. It's kind of hard to do, but it's so
much happier. Every step I take toward giving my will over makes my life
so much better. We don't give Heavenly Father enough credit. He
doesn't ask us to give our will for His sake—He asks for our sakes.
And that is why I am
ok with training one transfer in. Because I know that this is what God
wants, no matter how inadequate I am. Therefore, it will be the very best
thing ever. And how could I complain about that? I am super stoked
:) And when I get terrified, I remember that I have the best ward members
ever here who will train this poor girl.
And more on the
baptism of the coolest kid ever. I don't know what else to say, besides
it was the coolest. He is going places in the Gospel. And is set on
serving a mission. And remaining faithful forever. I wish we could
have taken a picture of his face coming out of the font. He was so happy.
This gospel makes people happy!
Even my first
comically bad day was awesome. I came home stoked. Because joy
comes from serving, not from benefitting. So I was like, "Let's go
clean more hoarders’ homes!!!" Not really, but almost! Ha, I
really was stoked, that wasn't a lie.
Sometimes I think I am
not realizing how amazingly lucky I am to be here and seeing so many wonderful
changes. I am so lucky.
I pray for you all the
time and I love you soooo much. Thank you so much for being the best.
