Yay for another week! My heart is full of happiness & im not 100 percent sure why but lets blame it on the womderful sunshine in Georgia!! Yay its supposed to hit 70 this next week! Wooo
Wednesday: Temple Trip!!! Wow this day was sooooo good! I love the temple!!! We were able to do emdowments & sealings! I had never done sealings before so that was pretty cool! Also we saw some members from the Murphy branch there & they took us to Red Lobster after so that was a bonus!! We also went to a come follow me class in the evening with all the missionaries in our district!! Yay i love seeing other missionaries!!
Thursday: we had interview's with President and Sister Marsh. Ahhhh they are the best. President Marsh & i talked alot about the atonement and how if we make more specific and qualifiable goals we will better be able to access the atonement in our life. This is something i have been working on. I love my savior & want him to be apart of every aspect of my life. He has felt everything we feel and loves each of us perfectly so who better to go to for guidance & help? No one!! Haha Interviews always take a while so that was the majority of our day!
Friday: friday was pretty slow. Our phone stopped working & we had no way to call our friends HA the only people we could call were other missionaries. So weird. We were able to meet with a less active though & we talked about prayer with her. The power of prayer is so incredible. Through prayer really anything is possible if we can be humble enough to just ask. There are so many basic things that i have taken for granted like praying. We are so lucky to know how to communicate with Heavenly Father. So many blessings await for us if we will just be humble and ask!
Saturday: we met with Bessy & talked about baptism. Hopefully she will be able to understand the need to be baptized again soon because its not really clicking hahah. After Bessy we went and stopped by all the people we found to teach last week. We were able to talk with 4 of them!! It was awesome!! One of them was even outside when we pulled up!! Gods timing is so good!! We were able to teach one lesson and then set return appointments with the others! Its so great when people want to talk to us! Even if there not all interested & their just being polite because its the spirit that teaches so if we can have the spirit with us when we teach they will just want us back and back!! Yay!
Sunday: we met with our friend Valarie the less active again! Shes so funny & wants us to set her up with a husband HAHA. After we had a full day of tracting but it was good! Tracting is actually one of the best things because you never know whos going to be behind the door. It can be someone sooo nice or soooo mean. Its just an adventure but its fun meeting all types of people!!
Blairsvile is good, im good, & the mission is good. This week i was asked why i came on a mission and whats keeping me on a mission. I don't think theres even words to answer this question. I LOVE being a missionary!!!! To have others notice me as a representative of Jesus Christ is truly a privilege.( I LOVE MY NAME TAG ❤) There is so much joy from doing the Lords work & i never knew i could love people so much after meeting them for .045729 seconds. If i could i would be a missionary forever! (& thats coming from someone who didnt ever want to be a missionary.😂) i want to challenge all yall to find a way to align your will to do the Lords work more fully. If its by reading the scriptures and gaining more knowledge so you can be better prepared to answer a question a friend might have in the future, or finding time to go to the temple to do an ansestors work, or maybe looking for a way to serve to be that light that someone might be looking for. There is so much work to be done and so many ways to do it. Lets all participate and feel the everlasting joy it brings!! I love yall & would love to hear how this goes if yall take on my challenge so feel free to email me :)
