It will be sad to
say goodbye to our wonderful zone and incredible teachers. I love them
all so much! But you can't meet new people if you don't leave the old
ones behind. We are actually getting a huge load of missionaries today, 7
sisters and 7 elders, many of which are going to Laoag as well. Is
this real life?! We are flying out tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have loved the MTC so much and learned so many things here.
I was
just pondering about it this morning and last night about the
incredible things I have experienced. My testimony has grown so much
from so much study and hearing the devotionals of servants of God
speaking to us. I have met so many wonderful people and friends here.
And I have truly seen miracles!!!
I know that through
fasting and prayer, God will truly give us help and things that we need
as long as they are in accordance with His will. I learned that
sometimes we have to hold out and that God tests our faith before He
blesses us. I am SO grateful to Him, and I know that he knows me and
knows each one of us. He sees all the good in us and loves us
unconditionally.
I want each of you to know that I know
that the Savior's love is very real. He lives and wants to be a part of our
lives. He's knocking at our doors and we have to be the ones to let Him
in. I LOVE his gospel, it is such a beautiful thing! I love the
scriptures, they are truly God's words and lead us to Him. We can find
safety and peace from the outward storms of worldly opinions and values.
We can know who we really are and our purpose in life. We can know what
God would have us do. The way is open, we must pray in faith and read
His words, follow His prophets and keep His commandments. I love you all
and I am so excited for this next chapter in my life!!!!
Alam ko po na totoo ang Simbahan! Alam ko na sa pamamagitan ni
Jesucristo at Pagbabayad-sala Niya, maaari nating maging mas masaya sa
buhay namin. Alam ko na mapagmahal po ang ating Ama sa Langit. Mahal
tayo ng Diyos. Sa pangalan ni Jesucristo, Amen.
Love love love you all!!!!
