Hello my people! I'm officially dying! Woo! Haha but no literally everyone I meet who asks how much time I have just love to remind me how I'm almost done with my mission. It's like, "Really? I didn't know." Haha but alas asi es la vida. Anyway this week in things of spiritualness I've been thinking a lot about the importance of faith. Faith is the first principle of the gospel but I feel like it might be the one we take for granted the most. The faith brings peace. The faith brings happiness. The faith brings light into our lives. But sometimes I think we're scared to have faith. And we say we have faith but we still have fear. That's not faith. Faith is believing without fear and just moving forward trusting in God. I feel like faith has been the biggest lesson that I've learned on my mission. Can I learn spanish? Through faith. Can I train a gringa? Through faith. Can I be a temple hermana? Through faith. Can I go home and be a normal person? Through faith. But really I think since I've learned that lesson my life has been happier. Sure I'll always have my insecurities or doubts. But when we remember that everything is in the lords hands we have no need to fear. The lord wants what's best for us and wants us to be happy. So if we just trust in him even if we can't see what's ahead of us all will be well. And that really dispells the fear and the darkness and brings the joy and happiness. Anyway mi gente....That's what I've got for you that's spiritual.
But in other news we had changes and I got myself a new companion. Se llama Hna Lopez de Guate. She's super lovely and hilarious. She's constantly telling me that I should get married with whatever elder, miembro, investigator, etc that passes by. I gues she knows I'm dying or something and I should start thinking about the second mission. Haha ay no. But anyway I also saw my first convert, Arturo! Hombre it made me so happy to see them! I truly do love the temple 'cause I get to see my friends almost everyday.
Anyway I'll talk to you peeps later! Nos vemos!
Hermana Judd
