ALRIGHT HAYY FAMILIA!
So i went to
the real world on saturday to get a check up for my ear ya know cause its been
hurting. Anyways they had to call you mom to get my insurance and seriously
right when they called you i heard you say hello and i stepped away and started
crying!! Ahhh i hope you got my message that i told you i loved you and happy
mothers day from the receptionist! So yes my ear
has been botherng me, like kind of a weird pain but I'll tough it out. I got a
blessing from Elde Beals and Elder Hullinger.
So for Mother's day
relief society Janice Kapp Perry came!! She is the lady that wrote the songs
"As Sisters In Zion, Im Trying To Be Like Jesus, I Love To See the Temple,
Childs Prayer, and many more!" We watched a thing about moms, and of
course everyone is just bawling seriously just dying. We got to sing her
songs for her, and the spirit was so strong! She just wrote a new song called
"THE Sisters Of Zion" she hasnt put it out yet, but she wanted us
Sister missionaries to be the first to hear and SING it for her!! Seriously you
can only imagine the spirit!!
After that my companion had to go to some
meeting, so i had to go on a spilt with the zone leaders for 4 HOURS!! It was
kind of uncomfortable because everyone would look at me funny because it was just
me and the 2 elder zone leaders. One of the heads of the mtc people assinged
me that, it was actually a nice break!
I watched a very inspirational movie about Joseph Smith's
life. I dont know where you get it but people say it is very common, it was
the best church movie i had ever seen. I was crying like a baby through the
whole thing!
So here is the trial of the
week! We had TRC which is where you teach members,
they do it so you can practice. The first person we had to share a message with was a
returned elder, and i was so nervous. I dont know why but i have a really hard
time teaching elders. My nerves just shoot through the roof, and no not becasue
they are cute. But we got in there and seriusly i lost it.
I shut down i didnt speak at all, i was nervous. I left the meeting with tears in my eyes out of frustration, and i saw my
teacher Sister Plowman whom i ABSOLUTELY ADORE. She is the greatest thing to
ever enter my life in the MTC! I walked out and said i cant do
this. It is too hard and i never feel the spirit. She said okay go teach the
next one and we will talk after! She said just go and pray to feel the spirit to help you. I prayed and went in there
and it was a lady, which was immediately better, but i talked! She asked me why
I came on a mission, and I TALKED! I talked ALOT! Seriously the spirit
was SO STRONG! I ended crying while bearing my testimony! I had to give the
prayer at the end and i couldn't even finish because i was crying from the
spirit! I walked out of that meeting with tears rolling down my face from the
spirit literally consuming my soul. What a difference it was from the first
meeting! Sister Plowman came and talked to me and literally said, "See You
can do hard things!" WHAT JUST LIKE MOMMA! Maybe thats one reason why i
love her so much!!
We had to go and do service tuesday morning and boy was i tired. We had it at 5:50 a.m. like seriously MTC as if we don't already get enough sleep you
allow us the opportunity to do service at 5:50 :) (you like how i said allow us,
instead of make us) haha see I'm changing! JK
OH TUESDAY DEVOTIONAL! GUESS
WHO CAME!! drum roll please..... RUSSELL M. NELSON! What a beautiful sight to
see. He did so well! He talked a lot about just smiling and knowing that
everyone is cheering us on. Even our ancestors on the other side!
O Did i already tell you about me starting the BOM over? Well i
am going to try to gain a greater personal testimony of it and i am already finished
with first nephi and i finished it in 4 days! I actually understand it and LOVE
reading it! I pray every time that i understand it, and it works!
Okay seriously
here is another great email story. Im sitting at lunch with everyone and an
elder walks over and sits kind of by me and starts talking to us and we are
talking back, he is from Fiji, and then he was like well i only really came
over here to get her email.. meaning mine! He asked for my email... so
uncomfortable i gave it to him cause i felt dumb, but i will never email him! How is it that these Elder's don't get it.
So Wednesday night i was talking
to Elder Beals and he told me some great advice, he said, " Look at
your companion as if she was Christ, and then tell me the
different love you feel for her" I have been doing that, and it is
incredible if you look at anyone as if they are Christ! It works! I challenge all of you to look at others as Christ, or as Christ
would.
Spanish is
coming along slowly but surely, yesterday we had to teach the other district
and it was the worst day of the week. I couldn't speak again. I ended up leaving
crying again. Sister Plowman just hugs me and says i
can do it! I Know i keep talking about Elder Beals but he
is such a great spiritual person! Yesterday he went through
the restoration, and the plan of salvation with me. He helped me memorize
scriptures, and seriously i just CRIED in front of him because the spirit
is so strong. He believes in me when i feel like i cant do it. We
said a prayer after and he asked that i would retain
what i study because i told him i struggle at remembering stuff. BUT no i don't like him, I'm just so grateful for his help haha he just understands me and helps me so
much. I told him i felt bad that I
