Cleaning the car!
If you know me you know I'm semi-obsessed with the Ensign. I pick them up whenever I find a new one and bring back the old ones. I love the stories in them! Imagine my surprise when I opened up and found the Bott's! Haha. Gotta love it!
Hi all!
All is well here in Florida. :) We have a new sister this week!
Straight from Pocatello, Idaho! Her name is Sister Barlow and Sister
Graham is training her. She's great. Change is always exciting. We
will miss Sister Neibaur! But she's going down to my old area -
Sarasota! I'm excited for her. :)
I keep trying to think about what I want to share and there's always
too much. I think the thing I keep learning this week is to just
cherish the moment. Be in it, live it. God has a plan for you. It's
good to think about the future and to plan for it, but it's also
important to be fully engaged in whatever it is you are doing right
then. It takes a lot of discipline, but the thing I keep learning
about discipline is how satisfying it is. When you really commit to
change something no matter how small it is, when you keep that
commitment it really does bring satisfaction and joy. Change is real.
It's possible and it's worth it.
My companion and I have decided to listen to all of the Book of Mormon
before the end of the transfer! So we listen during meals, while
driving in the car, etc. It's a great way to get immersed in the Book
of Mormon throughout the day and remember what you've been studying.
Would you like to join us in in this challenge? I can promise it will
be worth it! As a small bonus it doesn't even take up a ton of space
to download. If you haven't read much recently or have been feeling
the need for a closer relationship with God, reading and applying the
Book of Mormon to you life can make a difference.
I love the basic principles of the gospel. I'm so grateful for them.
As we follow those simple truths we will be led right. There is peace
and safety in following God's commandments. This I know.
I love you all! I am grateful for you! Keep the faith and work hard!
