That's right folks. On this day two years ago I was baptized as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It was the best decision I have ever made!! It has blessed my life so much and I know that this is one and only true gospel on the earth!
Bill and Jill are still on track to get baptized on the 19th of March! Last time we were there we committed them to read and pray together as a couple. They accepted but Bill asked us "So...does that mean once we finish reading the Book of Mormon together we are expected to get a divorce?". We laughed pretty hard together, and they are really progressing!
This week I learned a lot about how Christ sees us. We saw a Sister in the ward who has really been struggling. She began to weep as she told us the many things that have happened to her. She then bore her testimony of how God has given her the strength to overcome it all. In that moment I was so filled with compassion for her, and I knew that Christ loved her so much. It doesn't matter that she has made mistakes, He loves her now and always will. He feels that way for all of us. I know that is true, and I was grateful that I get to learn that lesson over and over.
This week was super busy! We saw a lot of people and taught a lot of lessons! But most of all, we saw a lot of miracles!

I hope that we can all be better at showing our love for Christ. We show our love for Him and Heavenly Father by doing what they ask and remembering them always. This scripture says it best
" Yea, and cry unto God for all thy support; yea, let all thy doings be unto the Lord, and whithersoever thou goest let it be in the Lord; yea, let all thy thoughts be directed unto the Lord; yea, let the affections of thy heart be placed upon the Lord forever.
Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day" - Alma 37:36-37
I know that Christ loves us all more than we can comprehend. It never changes,no matter what we do. I have seen His love change lives, including my own. What an amazing truth!
Sure love you all!
