Super Sick

Sick weekly

We had a pretty annoying week. Tuesday was pretty awesome! We found a really good friend! She has kind of been an investigator for a very long time, however, I guess she never got into the Book of Mormon. She committed to read all of 1 Nephi before Tuesday.

Wednesday I woke up and was super, stupid sick. President Auna insisted I stayed in an instructed district council for me.

Sorry, it's nothing much, but ya, that has essentially been an awful time of waking up and going back to bed. 

I have been doing better though! I hope I can write a better email next week!

Love you all!

Mission update this last week

-Locked in the apartment for 3 days (hopefully, today is the last day)

Cons

Wednesday was by far the worst, as I did not have the energy to even read, but could not sleep due to the pain of the headache. So I simply laid down in my bed, trapped in my brain with my own thoughts. I had a lot of time to reflect on what I so often tell people I believe, and consider if I truly believe it. Does God keep his promises? Does God love us? Was Jesus the son of God?

I pondered this for a while. However, like always, the Spirit confirmed, not loudly, not overtly, but very calmly and quietly, that yes. I am no liar. I know what I say, I mean it, and believe it. Jesus truly loves and saves, even when it's dark, painful, and hard. His light is always there, his word is always kept, and his blessings never cease

Thank you to all the amazing people I have met! So many will be my friends forever, and as I wrap up these last two months of my mission I pray that I will heal quickly, and finish strong!
