meditizando

Buenassss

This week was a week of meetings. Literally, every single day we had a meeting to go to and the day we didn't, we had an exchange! So it was really busy. We were still able to get a lot of work done though and meet a lot of new people. One of the meetings we had this week was MLC (mission leadership conference) and we were able to spend time learning from president and from one another. I learned a lot and left with a desire and ideas of how to improve our area and the zone. Sister Gibson and I were talking about how it's kind of weird how neither of us feel bad or discouraged or anything for not having had anyone be baptized since being here yet but it's because I feel like these past 3 months I have worked harder than I have ever before in my mission. I feel completely diligent and because of that I feel completely successful and happy. We are constantly going non stop and always finding great and new people to teach which is such a blessing.   Francheliz is continuing to progress really well, we are almost done teaching her all the lessons and she came to conference on Sunday and loved it. We are just waiting still  for her husband to agree to get married so keep praying for them! Conference weekend was so great. I started with questions and left with answers and action items from the spirit of ways to improve. I really loved President Uchtdorf's, Sister Mariott's and Elder Lawrences messages because they helped answer my questions of how I can deepen my relationship with the Savior and continue to progress. I loved Elder Durrant's idea to "ponderize" a scripture every week and really treasure up the words of Christ. I was thinking of how they would translate that word into Spanish since I was watching that session in english and I thought of Meditizar ( meditar and memorizar) so I'm going to work on meditizando. I was also able to finish the Book of Mormon in Spanish again right before the Sunday morning session. This is the fastest I've ever read it, less than 3 months. This time reading through the Book of Mormon, I did something different. I kept a running note on my ipad of all the different principles and lessons that I learned from specific scriptures and stories from people in the Book of Mormon. It is so long! By doing this, my love for the Book of Mormon and the reality of the people in it has grown so much these past three months. I am so grateful for the words of prophets, both ancient and modern, to guide us and shape us and help us to know of God's will, goodness and gospel. I was reading in my patriarchal blessing this morning and realized that it says that I will be blessed with a love for the holy scriptures and for God's prophets. I felt the spirit then and realized that I feel like I have really developed that more these past few months. Hope everyone has a great week, keep on Buenassss
