Mi objectivo como misionera es. . . .

They say every day here is like a week and every week here is like a day- never before have I been so busy in my life! But it's not the kind of busy like classes and homework and jobs, and things, it is the kind of busy which demands concentration and fills your thoughts and makes you sleep well at night. I love it.

If I could just send one snapshot that captured this week it would be my companion and I kneeling in an empty classroom praying in gratitude through streaming tears. It was yesterday; nuestras maestra, Hna. Keller asked my comp and I to teach her. We had spent the last few days preparing lessons for each of our teachers. It is a joy to study the gospel with the intent to bring someone else closer to Christ.

My comp and I had felt strongly to teach about the basic doctrines of the atonement, and I know that no matter what you teach, if you teach with the spirit, the Holy Ghost will be there to teach with you. At one point, I felt impressed to testify of God's work a specific instance in her life, and I was struck with the importance of my calling as a representative of Christ. It is MY humble opportunity to speak God's words to his children.

I am so grateful that mi companera also works so hard to always teach by the spirit, so we can truly be the greatest use to our Heavenly Father.

After the lesson my companion and I left, filled up with el Espiritu y le gozo de el evanjelio resorado.

We found an empty classroom and fell to our knees to thank God, in broken Spanish for allowing us to be such instruments in his hands. It is an awesome privilege to be called of God to this work!
