I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
Being a missionary on Christmas is one of the best things ever! I love
this area and the people in it soooo much!
So
much happened this week and I'm in at a little bit of a loss of what to
say. We got to celebrate Christmas with so many families and it was such
a wonderful experience!
We also had zone
conference this week which was SO AMAZING! President Wong is incredible!
There are so many good things to quote from it! Like "as long as you
are breathing serve for the church" "I want you to succeed but you have
to think clearly" "hang on, have faith, miracles are coming" and "if you
can't take correction you're not fit for the kingdom" I've been
learning that even though we will experience difficult things in life,
it is for our benefit. God is molding us into who we need to be. As
Elder Rasband said (paraphrased) "allow him to make more of you than you
could ever make of yourself on your own."
It
is so clear to me that Heavenly Father is guiding and directing this
work. He loves us and sees the potential in us that we do not see in
ourselves. It takes some work, but we can all use faith as a real power
to "do whatsoever thing is expedient in" christ (Moroni 7:33)
Thank you so much to all who sent me something! My Christmas truly was incredible!
