6 Weeks!!!

October 10, 2011

i remember in one of President Thomas S. Monsons talks he said that when you are busy time flies, i am starting to realize that while i have been here. these past 6 weeks in the field have gone
by so fast.... i think back to when i left home and started my mission, i really do not feel like the same person any more, when i look in the mirror sometimes think "is that me?" i look so different than how i looked before.

i truly love it here. when i pray at night i think how blessed i am to be here to be knocking on doors and trying to speak to people in spanish about the wonderful gospel of Jesus Christ.

but being on the mission is like life, we have days were we are so happy and everything is working out. then the next day everything falls apart, our investigators drop and we only have 2 lessons for the day. it is hard at times i'm not going to lie, but with all those times i know one thing that is consistant and something i can always rely on: my prayers to my Heavenly Father. i love knowing that we can talk with Him and just have that comfort from Him. when we are teaching people the first lesson, the first principle we share is that Heavenly Father is our loving
Heavenly Father... it is so true... that is so important to tell people because that is the whole reason we are on the earth. i am so thankful for the opportunity to share with others that Heavenly Father loves us and that He wants us to return to Him. that is why He has the gospel!
