Hello Everyone Back at Home!

3/30/2015

We had two birthdays this last week, Austin and Taylor! Another year goes by!

I have had a great week here this week. It is crazy to see all of the miracles that come to pass. This week we found a sister through doing some unplanned service. We helped a member to clean her store, when a friend walked by. We talked with her and she was a less active. We went to her house and she is super excited to come back to church. She went this last week and had an amazing experience! The bishop expressed how happy he was to have her back. My companion had been trying to contact this less active lady for 3 months we came to find out. It is incredible how the Lord puts people in our paths. 

I learned more about  grace this week. When we do all that we can, that is when the grace of the atonement comes. That is when we recieve the help that we need. If we don't  do our part first, God is not going to help us. We truly have to act. That is the prayer of faith, when we follow it with our acts, or our heart. I really have grown closer to the savior in this process. 

It seems like everyday of my mission is a little cycle of the atonement. I have the low and high moments of everyday. There always is a rise after the fall. We truly have to have the hope, or wait, until the rise comes. It always does if we continue faithful. God always blesses us in his own time.

Love you all and Can't  wait to hear back next week!
