This week was a challenging one... I did splits in Tupã again and it was
good but challenging--- I am in the hottest part of the mission and it
is killing us! I'm not baptizing
nearly as well this month as I was baptizing last month, but I am giving
it everything I've got and am praying tons. This week I thought a lot
about the Nephites who were blessed by the Lord and then started to
become prideful and then were warned, suffered, thrown in the refiners
fire, repented, and were blessed again. I see this happens a lot in the
mission and with me too. sometimes we are so quick to forget the Lord in
the good times, and so slow to repent and rely on Him again. I find
that even with almost 16 months in the mission, sometimes my prayers are
more sincere when I am struggling and then when I'm doing great, I'm slow
to remember that HE IS THE ONE THAT IS MAKING ALL OF IT HAPPEN. I am
learning so much and this is a growing process. I still struggle and am
still being put through the refiners fire- but I'm grateful because like I
always say- all diamonds started from dust and rock and had to be
melted down, heated up #itssohothere, and molded to
become beautiful. So grateful to be here! I love this gospel and my
mission and the Lord soooo much more than ever! I am pushing myself to my limits and I get way stressed out--- but I know when I trust in the Lord and let Him strengthen me, I SERIOUSLY HAVE
NO LIMITS!!! Soooo grateful for even the difficult moments because they
give me the chance to be better and to remember Him!
I will have my Zone Conference tomorrow!! Look for pictures!!
