I hope everyone has a great fourth of July! Definitely miss my favorite holiday in the states, but we are going to try and be as american as possible down here!
Happy Things!
1. Well...I am healthy again! turns out I had a little spout with bronchitis, SO I ended up on lockdown for this whole week in the office and with President Evans! It was fun though because I got to go to 2 zone conferences, see lots of faces I love, and spend a lot of time with the best mission president and his wife. OH and cannot forget spending the whole week at my old place in Campó Grande with the cutest hermanas ever :)
2. I finally got back to my area on Friday! truly back to a house of terror tho... and my companion got sick....SO we are easingggg our way back into life really! and we got a lot of repairs on our house too :)
3. SO last week I mentioned that our investigator Fernando was getting baptized on saturday...BUT God has a perfect plan. We did not get permission this week for him to be baptized, which was just a crazy turn around because we have already had permission to teach him and baptize him! Satan works in mysterious ways, but our faith is bigger and Fernando is ready to be baptized. Lots of prayers for him!
4. Just so happy to be back in my area really and truly :)
I had a lot of time to study this week as well and I just have one question that seems so simple, but really is SO HUGE. Do we really believe that we are of infinite worth as children of God? I think we say it so often we forget just how HUGE it is that we have a God who loves us so much and wants to bless in every way possible. I am so grateful for his love. I know that he is ALWAYS watching over us and ALWAYS ready to bless us in his timing. I know that my challenge on the mission with all the sicknesses is NOT what I had planned, but it is helping me become something and someone that HE has planned from the beginning. I trust him and I know God lives!
