Happy Mother's Day

HOLA HOLA HOLA everybody!! 

Well, I am thankful to be writing to you all this week! I do not have that much time but I am going to try my best to say everything! First off HAPPY MOTHERS DAY to all the lovely mothers in this world! I am very thankful that we have a day celebrate our Moms and that I was able to skype the family! Such a blessing and I love you all!

 This week was pretty awesome because Hermana Sanchez and I tried our very very hardest to be EXACTLY OBEDIENT! And it was amazing! We really saw the blessings of trying to do all we can to follow the Lord and be obedient and it has really strengthen my testimony with obedience itself! The commandents that God gives us in life and right now in our mission is not to restrict us but to in reality keep us free and happy and ready to recieve His guidance and spirit and blessings! At times it was hard BUT we were determined! There was a day where we ended Noche de Hogar later than we should have which only left us with ten minutes left before we had to be in our house. And guess what we did to be obedient? We sprinted all the way home! A good 2 miles!! And it was a really cool experience for me because I realized that one, the Lord really does provide the strength when we are trying to follow Him, and two that even though I am the new companion I can still contribute and help my companion to be exactly obedient and have the courage to accomplish all things. Hermana Sanchez and I were mid way home and I realized she was getting behind and I was getting ahead, I thought we have to do this together!! And I told her (or I tried to tell her the very best I could) that we are running and doing this together. Neither one behind neither one ahead. We are companions and a team in this work to be the very best missionaries we need and should be! And so I made sure I ran exactly by her and motivated her to keep going! And not only did we arive on time but a minute early! (We even took pictures to document the moment of our dedication to be EXACTLY OBEDIENT so enjoy our sweaty selves haha) I really felt connected and empowered with both of our desires to follow the Lord the very best we could! Even if it meant being sweaty and barely being able to breath. There are still a lot of things I can be better at but its great because we have room to grow and progress. 

The Lord is real and I am continually amazed by His love and daily guidance in my life right now as a missionary! All the standards all the commandments...everything is for our benefit and I promise that if we obey He will bless us with blessings we won't even be able to obtain! I am learning SO much! And I am so thankful to be here to be humbled and challnged and to really depend on the Lord in all I do! I love you all and feel your love everyday and hope you all feel mine! It is great to believe but we must live the gospel with actions of faith and with the desire to follow the commandments and be more like HIM! Have a wonderful week and know I am so thankful for this gospel and for our moms :) Hehe LOVE YOU MOM!!

love always
