Simply Happy Living It...

My people!

How is everyone?! I sure hope your all as happy as this girl. I dont know if life could possibly be any sweeter. I'm amazed at what the Lord is teaching me personally at this time in my life, but more than that im amazed at the trust He has in me. This week i feel like i've allowed the spirit to truly be my constant companion and my best friend. I have had promptings left and right, and have tried to humbly act! There was one experience this week where i felt super prompted to go to a woman named Doty's home. We prayed, and two of us both felt that was the place to go, so we went. We got there, and no one was answering. We were freezing cold, and so we decided to leave. I took one step. It was as if there was a wall and i ran right into it. The spirit told me "get your booty back up there and leave a blessing on the home". I swear i would have never had even thought of that idea. We huddled together, and blessed the home and left the spirit there. I prayed that the angels who were attending us would stay and attend them. I know they did. I felt them.

Another experience we had was with our dear investigator mama jean. She's convinced shes never gonna be a mormon. Between us three sisters, holy smokes. Sister A is a southern belle. she is so sweet and sincere. Sister b and i are a lot a like, except im bold where she is more concerned. We had an amazing lesson with her. Her husband recently passed, and i told her i felt him. I did. I feel him now, the spirit is literally chilling my soul right now as i type this. It was undeniable how bad he wants her to be happy, and how much he so longs for the gospel. As i prayed over her at the end, i felt like my Savior was in front of me, her sweet william behind me pleading for me to share with our Savior his heart. I wish i could better interpret. But all i know is angels do attend. I love them. They are mine. I asked mama jean if she would be mine after she passed. She promised she would.

One thing im also learning and have continued to learn is how much love is needed. We can't get any missionary work done unless we love. So everyone, thats your challenge this week. Learn to love a little more.

The office has been great. Sister P told me she feels they were sent here for me. Elder P calls me his daughter, and treats me exactly like it. Im so taken care of here. My backs still getting worse but progress is being made. Im seeing someone in our ward. He took a fex x rays and he took one look and said "no wonder your in pain. your left side isnt even moving at all" My right side is clear, my left is completely locked up even above the fusion. We'll get it taken care of, i have faith. Which means ill probably be here another transfer!!! AHHH. can you believe in one week i am half way done? I cant. nor do i want to believe it. my heart is here. I love this work. I love my companions. I love my savior!

If i had to pick one reason why the church is true, it would be because i am simply so happy living it.

i love you all!
