November 19th, 2012


Family!

Its Thanksgiving week! It's my favorite holiday. Why? Because theres good food, I'm with people I love, I love fall colors and the most important, I get to reflect on all the many blessings Heavenly Father has given me.  What am I thankful for?

                First off, for a loving Heavenly Father who loves me, believes in me and allows me to be part of His work.

                A mother who has always and continues to support me in the things I do and is always so accepting.

                Sisters who have been wonderful examples to me

                A grandmother who is so selfless and is so loving in all that she does.

                A tia and uncle who make such cute kids and who always had a home where the spirit dwelled.

                 For loving companions who are so patient and funny

                For the people I met on my mission who changed their lives, accepted Christ and desired to follow Him.

                For wonderful friends who've supported and encouraged me throughout my mission
I could go on....I really could. I hope though that not only this week but everyday we reflect on the many blessings God has given to us.  I know we need to develop an attitude of gratitute because I know we'll be happier and it will draw us nearer to Him who loves us.  I can testify to that. "count your many blessings, name them one by one and it will suprise you what the Lord hath done" amen.  I love this work! I love being a missionary. I love coming home so dead tired. I love seeing someone enter into the waters of baptism.  I love life and I love you all. Amo mucho.
