I won the open your scriptures randomly game



Familia!!


Wow thats so scary about Lukie. My heart stopped when I saw stiches pic. DONT DO THAT TO ME!!! Someone grab Luke and look him in the eyes and tell him to never ever walk behind a golf club mid swing again.  Youll end up in the ER everytime!  Im glad hes ok.  Kiss his sweet swollen head for me.

PEEPS. ID LIKE TO INTRODUCE MY COMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HERMANA VARGAS FROM EQUADOR!!!!! SHE IS ME. I HAD NO IDEA THERE WAS ANOTHER MARIE TERRY LIVING IN EQUADOR.
MY HEAVENS that girl is sooo crazy and sooo excited and might I say SO DANG FUNNY!! Gah!!! IM SO IN LOVE WITH MY DAUGHTER! Can I say that?!!
Haha. ELLA ES UNA CAAAAAAAAAAAAPAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! capa. capa. capa. She has so many gifts.Her sweet little spirit makes my days so much better!!
Its funny.. when I first saw her face I KNEW she was gonna be my comp. She thought the same thing! WE WERE BEST FIRIENDS IN THE PREMORTAL LIFE.  I KNOW IT.
Bueno. So I was Hermana Jensen from Tuesday to Friday. :) Supper fun! 2 gringas from Springville... we had a blast! She helped me SOOO MUCH! God prepared this perfectly. Hermana Jensen is MY ANGEL. Im soo soo soo thankful for her. She made me feel so much better. SO THANK YOU MAMA AND PAPA JENSEN FOR RAISING SUCH AN AMAZING WOMAN!!

And then mi hija arrived Saturday morning!!! And I was like... WOW Im a mommy. The difference between a mom on the mission and a mom in real life is NOTHING. HAHA. I feel like Im constantly worrying if shes okay. If shes eating, sleep, breathing, crying. HAHA todo! But shes PERFECT. She came to me a completely perfect baby missionary. She ALREADY HAS THE VISION OF THE MISSION. WE ARE BOTH SO PUMPED. Saturday we walked allllll over this dang big city to find Gods children to bring to church. We found a ton of new people!!! . Sunday morning we went by allll their houses and none of em answered.  Yah, this is the hardest part of my life right now.
.
I was sooo bummed! I understand.. 
Its our first week. We only have three days together.. But I dont wanna make that excuse.  I was talking to Hermana Ayre and I was like... HOOOOWWWWWW did this happen? This wasnt the plan!! And she laughed and pointed upwards towards the heavens. :) That really HIT me. God knew it would be hard for us... but he knew we would have success.  This week has been my prayer week. Ive never prayed so much in my life. Its a scary feeling when you open your area book  and realize WE  HAVE NO INVESTIGATORS.

But at the same time.. I feel the presence of God with me. I feel him guiding me through out this process. I DONT KNOW HOW but I now know the calles and how to read a map.. what bus to take to what calle... the subway.. todo. JUNCAL IS the capitals capital. And I love it. Me and Hermana Vargas are talking to everyone. Man my little daughter is one little fireball. She has no fear she talks to EVERYONE!! SO PROUD I COULD DIE!!

So ya.. I like to set my goals HIGH so when Sunday came and we didnt have investigators in the church.. I almost died. I was so SAD. Yesterday was kinda hard. We walked all over tarnation.. nobody was home. AND YESTERDAY WAS DIA DE AMIGO. FRIEND DAY IN ARGENTINA. AND I WAS JUST LIKE.. UM HELLO ARGENTINA YOUR BEST FRIENDS ARE OUT LOOKING FOR YOU BUT WONT ACCEPT US. HELLOOOOO... we would seriously be their bffs for eternity if only they understood how our message could change their whole life.

This morning.. I woke up and started to feel overwhelmed and discouraged.  Then I just opened my scriptures to wherever it fell.  You know the drill.  Weve all done it.  Just hoping you will open up to the perfect answer for you in that moment.  And this my friends is what my eyes fell on.

 And whatsoever they shall speak when moved upon by the Holy Ghost shall be scripture, shall be the will of the Lord, shall be the mind of the Lord, shall be the word of the Lord, shall be the voice of the Lord, and the power of God unto salvation.
 5 Behold, this is the promise of the Lord unto you, O ye my servants.
 6 Wherefore, be of good cheer, and do not fear, for I the Lord am with you, and will stand by you; and ye shall bear record of me, even Jesus Christ, that I am the Son of the living God, that I was, that I am, and that I am to come.


I think God is trying to tell me something:)

As for the training part.. its so FUN!! HAHA  .
Gah- I love the mission. I love being a mom. Hermana Vargas already came trained. Shes training ME!!!


I HOPE MAX IS DOING OKAY!!!!!
LOVES!! CARRY ON FOLKS!
