There are no small miracles

Hola a todos!!

First off, lets talk about CONFERENCE! I wrote down 6 questions that I was seeking answers for, and BOOM within the end of the Saturday morning session, ALL of them were answered! I know that God truly does inspire and guide His Prophet and Apostles in our day to help up receive guidance and revelation for our lives!

I LOVED D. Todd Christofferson's talk. One thing that he said totally impacted me. He said that when the bread is broken for the sacrament, it is broken in all sorts of little different pieces. They are all different, not one being the same. They are all individual pieces, just like those who partake of it. We ALL partake of the sacrament for different reasons, we are all trying to become better for different reasons, have different sins, make different mistakes, but through partaking the sacrament each week, we can truly become better. We can become whole through the Sacrament and repentance! God is so good and merciful to his children. :)

There have been COUNTLESS times again this week when people have told us "I've been praying for Hermanas to come here to my house, and to be in this area" and it makes all the hardness, the confusion, the getting lost, the overwhelming feelings WORTH IT. :) We also had dinner with a member who returned home early from her mission in Honduras and I felt like I could connect and help her in a way that would not have been possible a few months earlier. She saw us at at the church between conference and said "there are MY missionaries!" It was so sweet and honestly made it all worth it.

There are small moments, the ones while we are teaching a lesson to a less active where the spirit testifies that I need to be here. There are small moments, when I am in the car singing my heart out to our favorite church song that it makes it all worth it. There are moments when I am testifying what I KNOW to be true, that it all is worth it. I know this Church is true. It has the priesthood keys restored! I know I am where I need to be. I know that God loves EACH one of His children and that He KNOWS us by name.

Have the best week ever! And happy (late) month of marriage Brad and Aubs! Love you guys.
