So my experiences this week. It's weird so you would think with all
these new things I'm doing and experiencing and having to do I would be
freaking out. Well I kind of did in the MTC but here I'm not. I feel
strangley comfortable. I was thinking the other day that it feels like a
dream, like I've been carried this whole way. And then I thought
realized that I have been carried, Heavenly Father and the prayers I
feel from every one has carried me this whole way, through the are ports
and through the rocky roads of Paraguay I know it! There is no other
way I could be doing this. He has blessed my mind and my heart to be
still and focus and my body to adjust well to the heat and humidity and
the food. I have been completley blessed! And I am so greatful!
On
day we were teaching this Hermana , Elda and she has a little boy maybe
2 yrs he was sitting on her lap ( we have all out lessons pretty much
outside everyone here has a patio) and there were these big ants and
other bugs outside their house. Well he would get this worri3ed look on
his face and point to me and there would be a bug so I brushed it off
(quickly) and he did it a few more times. And I thought , oh how cute
he's watching out for me! Then I heard a voice in my head say, I'm
always watching out for you Sarah, I'm right here. And in that moment I
knew that I am being watched over and I just felt super loved and ..yeah
it was great.
I realized that this is hard
this week. I had a moment of feeling really overwhelmend and frustrated
and I let myself have a little pity party but then decided I needed to
put all that aside and dig in and I felt better.
I'm still
learning to love , that's hard. There's a song we exercise to in the
morning that says you can smile to everyone you pass and you'll never
run out of love. Dont be afraid to love. It's hard but I'm trying to do
that.
And you know how Dad was with rain on his mission. I feel that way with bugs here haha :)
Sorry I don't have any more time I'm going to try to send a picture or 2 before I
go I love all of you so much!
