Happy New Years! Its only day four of 2016! Can you believe it!!
It’s
going by so fast already! ;) haha, nah just kidding. This year
has
been great so far though!
This week was interesting. I reflected a lot on good ol’ 2015
and I am
not gonna lie, it was a great year; one that will probably make
the
books as one of my most favorite years of my life. Besides
meeting the
raddest people ever at BYUI, and all the adventures I had with
them,
and getting my mission call, and actually starting my mission,
this is
my favorite year, because I personally found how to come closer
to
Jesus Christ. There were many things that I struggled with
before
coming out on my mission, as everyone does, but I am so happy
that I
know how to handle those struggles now, and it’s so easy to get
through! It’s because of Him :) Every progression I make in my
life I
give all credit to Him, because I am weak and I would be so lost
without Him. So I am here on my mission for Him, and there is a
quote I
really like that I recently heard, "This is the beginning
of a new
day. God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it-
or
use it for good, but what I do today is important because, I am
exchanging a day of my life for it! When tomorrow comes this day
will
be gone forever, leaving in its place something I have traded
for it.
I want it to be gain and not loss; good and not evil; success
and not
failure, so that I shall not regret the price that I have paid
for
it." (Dr. H. Wilson)
Each day that we live is precious, it is a gift, and I am not
going to waste it worrying about the past or the future. I am going to be learning from the past,
working hard now, to reach my goal for my future.
Some updates on my lovely Glendale 2nd area- transfer calls were
Saturday and Sister Ballard and I will be staying here another
transfer. I’ve been in Glendale as long as I have been out.
We're
giving Maria a break :( We'll see how she’s doing in a couple of
weeks.
Kevin is still amazing! He bore his testimony at church so that
was
good and fun... he mainly just gave an announcement about his
baptism
in two weeks because we had to move it for his surgery and sat
down,
so we'll work on that one with him :) Gigi and Justine are doing
great! They've been willing to attended some other baptisms, and
I
think we are making some progress on their concerns to be
baptized.
That’s pretty much it for this week though!
Love you!
