So, this week has been….good actually, hard. ha. Life as a missionary, truly is incredible, really, it’s just kinda hard sometimes. I feel like this week has been a serious of ohhhh man, ohhhhhhhhhh man. But, needless to say, I’m learning now more than ever how to rely on my Heavenly Father. He is there – He loves us and He will strengthen us. I know that! He always listens to us and He knows exactly how we feel at every moment of everyday. And for that I am SO incredibly grateful! We just have to give Him everything, absolutely everything. We can’t hold anything back. We have to give Him all of our trust, our control, our worries, our stresses, the good things and the bad things, everything has to go to Him and only then can we receive any light, any joy in our lives. I know this! And I’m so grateful for it. I found a scripture this week that has come to mean a lot to me. 2 Nefi 7:11 . ”Behold, all ye that kindle fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks, walk in the light of your fire and in the sparks which ye have kindled.” When those hard times come, we have to walk in the light of the fire that we have already kindled – we can’t just go along thinking all is well, I have nothing to worry about and then all of a sudden turn to this wonderful testimony that is just so strong and burning – it doesn’t quite work that way. We have to keep it going, we have to be building that fire constantly that way when those hard times do come – and they will, they always will – we already have a fire going, we already know what it is we need to do, and we have something to fall back on that will carry us through those hard times. It’s amazing how much the scriptures can teach us
I just love them!!!
