Hey everyone! I love you all so much! So everything is starting to be better. Getting through the hard times more easily. :) Just wanted to share an amazing tender mercy. As I was in the Celestial room, I was praying and hoping that the sun would shine, because earlier, it was cloudy, and on the side of one of the windows, the sun started to shine through and it got brighter and brighter until it allowed the light to bounce of the crystals or glass in the room and rainbows were shining everywhere and one of them landed on me! I felt so loved and comforted in that very moment. <3 In that very moment I knew that He knew me and loved me and knew that that is what I needed at the very moment.
Well one our investigators came to sacrament meeting with her less active boyfriend who are going to start on the journey of coming back to church together. :) My First investigator to come to church! and my other Investigator said that she would come to church next week, so it's getting pretty exciting! I'm still not used to the going up and talking to people, but i'm doing better. Thank you all so much for the prayers, they help a lot. And thank you all for emailing and writing me, i need it. :) <3
Also, one of our investigators Peggy, is so funny! :P to keep it short because of time, she calls her cat a heathen. :P Sometimes she calls, no joke, one time 5 times in like 3 min. haha about us comming to rake her leaves when the snow was melted and at that time, it was snowing outside and it still hasn't melted yet, but she called last night and made sure that when Sister Carter leaves, that I can rake her leaves. haha I almost died! haha She left a voicemail because we were at dinner at the time, and she knows and always asks for Sister Carter but she was asking if the _____________ other sister, you know who I mean.... and kept talking, but I laughed because she just couldn't remember my name it that was on the voicemail. haha I noticed that a lot of people have a hard time remembering my name, including my own companion sometimes, but yeah anyway... hahaha
Again, I just wanted to share a couple of things that have helped me through the hard times, if that's okay. :)
Alma 19:4
3 Nephi 9:13-14 but place in with your name, and it will help you so much I hope because it has helped me so much!
I also read the Ricciardi letters, that's amazing! You should read it if you can find it! So awesome! but in it is says " Happiness is a choice". :) It's a lot easier said than done, but I'm working on it and I have seen a difference but, I know that if you try your best, you will see a difference and that these promises are made to you and me as well as the 'others' stated in the scriptures and anything else that the prophets have promised. You and I are counted in it as well. :)
Alma 30:40-41 talks about how ALL THINGS testify of Christ. :) <3
MUST READ: BELIEVING CHRIST!!! Here is some quotes!
"By his grace any problem can be overcome, any circumstances can be worked around, anyone can be saved- if only we just really want the kingdom."
Pres. UCHTDORF TALK: 14TH FLOOR, LAST DOOR
"Faith is trust- trust that God sees what we cannot and that He knows what we do not"
"God rewards those who earnestly seek him, but that reward is not usually behind the 1st door, WE need to keep knocking. Don't give up. Seek God with all your heart. Exercise faith. Walk in righteousness. I promise if you do this- even until the 4th floor, last door- you will receive the answers you seek, You will find faith and one day you will be filled with light that grows brighter and brighter until the perfect day. "
I love you all and those are just a few things, but I'm still looking everyday for new things to help me endure to the end and I just wanted to share it with all of you whom I love dearly. :) <3 You are all amazing and I'm sorry if this email doesn't make sense I have to write a lot in a short amount of time but I wanted to tell you all of those cool funny stories so I hope you can understand them. :P haha I love you all, keep emailing and writing! And sending pictures! I love it! Please also, keep me posted! :P LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!!!
