I love being a missionary!

I love being a missionary! There’s nothing that compares to it. It is just weird to think about two 20 year olds running around talking to people and making appointments and then teaching something that will change their lives. It is just awesome. I know I will never have another opportunity at it and the time seems to just go so fast. I love it all. I know Christ died so that people can overcome whatever challenge that thy face. I don’t know how the Atonement works, but it sure does work in my life and those that surround me. Love ya!!!!

It's just more fun to be happy, no matter what:)

I bought a 13 x 9 pan to make brownies and hootenannies. Today, while making brownies, I cracked the eggs right into the mix and one ended up having a very rotten little something in it. That threw a damper on the brownies I was going to make, but I’m still happy (it’s just more fun to be happy, no matter what).

Eternity

Well, I know that every difficulty can be resolved and overcome in this life. All happiness is found in a life based on the teachings of Christ. I always love holding a picture of the temple and telling people that they can be married there for ALL of eternity. It is worth anything to make it there. At times I feel like I don’t deserve so many blessings and opportunities for blessings, but Heavenly Father strengthens us in our weakness and keeps giving the blessings. It is so worth doing all we can to accept all of those blessings. Christ lives. Anything we have done wrong can be fixed and forgotten. Some things may seem too hard to fix, but at some point we just lack forgiving ourselves. Christ’s arms are open and he can lead us on to the eternities!
