A Trust excercise.

ISA LEI
 

I have figured that I have gotten to the point that I have forgotten a lot of what it is like back home. Fiji has become home and the missionaries my family. The mission is full of constant ups and downs in each day and the Spirit whispered to me that this is just life. I realize that the mission is like a giant trust exercise with Heavenly Father. It is crazy. I realize also as I look at the young mothers in my ward here that being a parent is the same thing. A crazy trust exercise with Heavenly Father. There are moments when I feel I am doing well with Trusting Him and others where I just feel like a headless chicken and I have to stop and remind myself to just. Trust. Him. Trust His Love, His Time, and His knowledge and everything will go according to His Will. My questions to ponder: Do I completely trust Him? Does He Trust ME? Am I worthy of that trust? It is Humbling and soul searching but it has made me ever so grateful for the sweet hour of prayer. Speaking of which, us missionaries are putting together a musical fireside all about prayer in the up coming weeks. we are very excited. We also found an amazing new investigator this last week despite getting sick. She told us that she had been wanting to come to church for a while and saw it as something that could help her raise her teenage kids to stay away from "alcohol and drugs and all the immorality that is happening in the world today." We explained the word of wisdom and law of Chasity. haha as well as the For the Strength of Youth. She then asked what she needed to know and do to join the Church. We laughed and explained the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Covenant of Baptism. She committed to be baptized in September on the very first visit. :) Amazing. We told the ward and it has really helped them get excited about missionary work. My testimony to you all is to study your scriptures, get on your knees to pray, and forget yourself and GO to Church. :) 

This Church IS the Only True Church on the Earth. 
God revels himself to man in these latter days.
The book of Mormon is the most correct book on the earth.
Heavenly Father Hears our prayers. 
WE are His Children. 

I LOVE YOU ALL.
