“Preach unto them repentance, and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ; teach them to humble themselves and to be meek and lowly in heart; teach them to withstand every temptation of the devil, with their faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.

Teach them to never be weary of good works, but to be meek and lowly in heart; for such shall find rest to their souls. O, remember, my son, and learn wisdom in thy youth; yea, learn in thy youth to keep the commandments of God.

Yea, and cry unto God for all thy support; yea, let all thy doings be unto the Lord, and whithersoever thou goest let it be in the Lord; yea, let all thy thoughts be directed unto the Lord; yea, let the affections of thy heart be placed upon the Lord forever.

Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.” -Alma 37:33-31

God is my Father in Heaven who knows me, loves me, perfectly understands me and who’s work and glory is to bring me immortality and eternal life. He has a perfect plan for you and me and everyone. As we turn to Him in prayer and love and serve Him with everything in us, He will make us mighty. He will allow us to help others and He will show us how He sees them, us and the world. It is a BEAUTIFUL sight, I’ll tell you. A few experiences that I’ve had with seeing Gods hand in my life:

Marget. It was a Wednesday. We just happened to be walking out of the church when she pulled up. We went up to her car to say hi and she explained that she felt this sudden urge to come to the church. She had been baptized 14 years ago but after a year of being a member, removed her name from the church because she felt it was ‘too hard to be a mormon’ haha. We got her address and went over that night to teach her. She wants to come back! 🙂

Cassandra! We got to go to the temple with her for her first time! It was SO SPECIAL! She is my new best friend! In November I am going with her to receive her endowments!!! SO EXCITED!

Ortegas! They are doing GREAT! They get so upset when we have to leave becuause they have so many questions and are just so excited to learn! They can’t get enough of the Spirit! I LOVE THAT FAMILY. WOW.

Change. I am leaving sister Red and Albany 😦 I have learned so much from that woman! She is one of my dearest frineds. I so look up to her and have learned so much about positivity, patience and going with the flow of life! I will dearly miss her and always cherish the memories we had! I will be opening Hudson and second transfer training sister ALLRED my last 6 weeks!!!! Hudson was actually an elders area so it will be interesting to see how they trashed the appartment haha kidding. It will be fun and the branch there is so excited to have missionaries again! I am so excited and looking forward to meet more brothers and sisters!

I invite you this week to give everything to God. He will take the little you have and multiply it. But you have to give him your ALL. He is so good.
