Rocks

whoops here I am again sending my letter not on pday

- Shoutout best friend madi for getting married this week!! Someone go crash their honeymoon for me. I love you mads. 

- background on birandias daughter. She's 2 years old and has special needs. She was just in the hospital for 2 weeks bc she wasn't eating. She stopped eating again so after church they were on their way back to the hospital again but presidente gave her and biranida a blessing and it was beautiful. In the daughters blessing presidente talked about how she choose to come here even though her body wasnt gonna be perfect. Me= and he said lots of other beautiful things

A few days later we called biranida at the hospital and she said she felt so mhch peace and her daughter started eating more than she has in a while! Preisthood blessings have so much power it amazes me. 

- had interviews with the mish prez and talked abt the recent struggles. He shared about becoming a bishop in an English ward when he didnt know any english and we talked abt how being stretched past what we want just sucks. (We both started crying)

During these hard days I feel like im pushing a big rock and can feel that feeling of "being overstretched". A lot of rocks are expected for a mission (comp problems, feeling inadequate, being drained, not having the comforts of normal life) but having so many at once makes it feel like a big rock. And im like, cant I be done with this overstretching haha? Its uncomfortable! But then i remember the verse "lovest thou these things more than me?" Like i said in last email, ofc i do. And then I remember that ma girl allie vaughn said love is sacrifice. And that hna Wheatley said missions are full of short term sacrifices. So here I am making sacrifices of my comfort because I love the Savior, and it's just short term! I know this transfer will pass. The Savior is always there to get me back on my feet and lead me along again, so im trying my best to continue trusting in Him.

Hugs and kisses
