HOLA!
What
a week! A week of Miracles! Like always :) There are ALWAYS miracles in this
work eh?
This
week I have really learned the importance of members in missionary work. I have
LOVED seeing how this ward is truly dedicated to the work. They are so willing
to help. This week we had the Sesma Family (converts of 1 year, just got
sealed, they are golden.. anyways) come with us to visit Miriam and Valeria who
are preparing to be baptized, their testimonies of how the gospel has
completely changed their life were SO key. I loved seeing how Miriam and
Valeria were influenced by their special testimonies! And the best part....
Hermana Sesma brought them to the General Womens Conference Saturday! So
happy :)
Another
member miracle this week was with our good friend Jesica, she told us about a
friend that she had been talking to about the gospel and gave us her
information, the next day we went together to contact her. Wow. She truly needs
the gospel in her life (don`t we all haha), as she was explaining how she
feels... empty... lonely... without purpose... failure as a mom....etc... I
kept thinking the gospel is literally perfect... and truly fills every single
need that we could possibly have.
Fun
little finding miracle.... when we first got to San Juan we were talking to
people in the streets, and wrote down a Lady`s name to go visit her later, we
kept having her name in our mind but never had time to go visit her... then one
morning this week we were walking to another appointment and
I
LOVED the General Womens Conference Saturday! I LOVED the base of
families. The gospel truly is a plan for the Family no? It made me think a lot
of what I need to do now to help my future family. There was one sentence in
particular that was in one the the videos that really hit me.... "Each
one of us has the seed of perfection". One of the
greatest lessons I have learned on the mission is that we can`t be perfect...
but yes we can become perfected in him. We truly do have the
ability to become perfect... just requires a little patience... "Wherefore
continue in patience until ye are perfected (D&C 67:13)... Yea come
unto Christ and be perfected in Him...(Moroni 10:32)"
I
truly am grateful for the knowledge I have that I have that little seed inside
of me that little part of HIM and his perfection... and that thanks to
Him and that he LIVES and loves me I can water that seed a little more every
day and become perfected in Him. I love this time of year, Easter, remembering
Him and all that is possible thanks to His sacrifice and the fact that He
Lives. If you haven`t seen this new video... go look it up! It`s
incredible!
Also...
So excited for conference! And on Easter? What a blessing :)
