Waiting Room at Hospital |
Well
first off, sorry for writing home late! Today
we had to go to Mexico City! The day came! Elder Morales got his cast off
today! His arm is super skinny and stinky.... But we are free! We are done,
what’s next? Therapy.... that will be fun! I would like to stress that
hospitals suck. We went to a different hospital today and we ended up
waiting forever again... not my favorite thing to do, wait in waiting
rooms. The good news is that Elder Morales is all healed up! We have seen
the Lords blessing here, his arm is healed PERFECTLY, how cool is that???
Second,
I can testify that our devices aren’t worth the time we waste using them. My eyes were opened when I came on the mission
and left my phone behind. There is a
beautiful work in front of us and we don’t need a pathetic screen to see
it. Start a trend! Every meal everyone leave their phone is a basket. NO
PHONES AT THE TABLE!
Today
as well we had our zone conference! Elder Morales and I changed it up a
bit. We assigned some other Elders and
the Sisters to give trainings. We had 4
different stations and we had to change and rotate. It was super fun and super spiritual! I loved
it actually! We talked about several things, loving each other, service, being
successful, getting up on time, lots of good stuff.

The
changes are coming again.... they are coming faster and faster every time. I think the cycles are getting faster....I don’t
know for sure, but it’s possible that today was my last zone conference as a
zone leader. Maybe I will be ZL another
cycle, maybe not, who knows. Just pray that Gods will be done in my
mission. I would love to stay with Elder Morales another cycle! The truth is that he is a champ and one of my
favorite comps! I love him!
Something
else I learned this week, love.
We
got to love more. Although we think we got it, we usually don’t. And if we
do it’s much easier to love our family members and our close ones, lots harder
to love the neighbor, the old lady taking forever in the check our stand, and
the crazy drivers! What are the 2 first commandments? Love God with all
we got, and second, love our neighbor like unto ourselves (sorry if it’s not
perfect, English is my second language now) Our heavenly father loves us
soooo much, despite all of our imperfections he loves us, and our savior loves
us so much he gave his life for us. Sometimes we wouldn’t give even a dollar
for someone we barely know.
I
have learned that it’s hard to love the people sometimes.... they are
STUBBORN.
But
I have worked a little harder to love them, to see things from their
perspective, to try and discern how they feel. I am not perfect but I want to
love more. With love comes patience and wit patience comes a better
life. Let’s read Matthew 5:44-45, it’s a killer scripture!!
Just
so y'all know I have been craving pancakes.
I
am blessed to be a Son of God, I was blessed to be born in this gospel and I am
blessed to be a missionary!
I
love you all so much!
CHURCH
IS TRUE!!!
