Amen 😇
Even though it's an email I really hope you can all feel how much I love Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. I know without a doubt that they are real and that they are present in our lives. I have felt them there for me and time again, especially when I felt like I had no more love or patience left to give. I felt it in every happy moment when our friends were progressing and growing closer to God. I know His love is real. I know that during every trial and difficulty we face, we are being taught how to become more like Jesus Christ.
I think the biggest most crucial moment of my mission that really changed me was when I felt very personally that Jesus Christ is my Savior. I know He looked at my life and saw all of the hardships and pain I would go through, He saw all of the sins I would commit and all the lonliness and fear I would face because of them. I know He knew it was going to be really hard to feel and suffer for all of those things, but He did it because He wanted to be there for me every step of the way. I feel like serving a mission and focusing on becoming more like Christ gave me a beautiful opportunity to be able to come unto Him and feel the marks in His hands and in His feet. I know He is my Savior and I love testifying of Him.
I love this work. On my last Sunday of the mission Genese and Naroa got baptized. I could feel how happy Heavenly Father is with them and I know He loves them. Getting to be a part of these people's lives has really helped me feel true joy. These are the things that matter in life. I feel so grateful for each experience and each companion I had because I know God organized every little detail of my mission. His plan is perfect and His hand is in every detail.
For verily I say unto you, blessed is he that keepeth my commandments, whether in life or in death; and he that is faithful in tribulation, the reward of the same is greater in the kingdom of heaven. Ye cannot behold with your natural eyes, for the present time, the design of your God concerning those things which shall come hereafter, and the glory which shall follow after much tribulation. For after much tribulation come the blessings. Wherefore the day cometh that ye shall be crowned with much glory; the hour is not yet, but is nigh at hand.
GOD LOVES US!!! AND I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
