| our cute little marta gave us these cute teddy bears from holland... #shessoadoreable #lovehersomuch #lovebeingamissionary |
yes. it happened. && yes. it was absolutely wonderful. && yes. a member of the seventy was definitely there. #dassswhatsup
seriously though. i was totally in tears. it was one of the most beautiful baptisms of my life!!! marta was truely glowing with the spirit!! && the next day when we had fast and testimony meeting she definitely got up && bore the most beautiful testimony i have every heard!!! ahhh... the church is true people. thats all im saying. it changes lives. && i know this. cuz its changing mine. :)
speaking of yesterdays fast && testimony meeting tho... wow. blown away. seriously one of the most powerful meetings i have ever been in!! the spirit was unreal. && being in my tiny chapel with my increidble family of baradero... wow. i´m just so grateful for this amaizng opportunity to be amongst these incredible human beings. && as i got up to bear my testimony (after fighting the spirit for 20 minutes) i seriously could not stop the trembling... the spirit was testifing to me in the most incredible way it ever has in my entire life!!! and it reminded me of a quote from president gordon b. hinckley...
¨if you want to find your testimony... bare it.¨
&& seriously i believe its the same with strengthening your testimony. seriously... my tesimony has never been so tried && strengthened in all my life than in my mission. && im seriously so increidbly grateful becuase in this year && a half... i have found my testimony. && im never ever gonna let it go!! i have it. && im living it. :)
awe mi familia... i just love you all so much!!! && i want to invite you this week to find YOUR testimony && bare it. it doesn´t have to be a huge prophetical speech, && you dont need a pulpit or soap box... just share what you know. live what you know. a one liner here or there. a smile. a compliment to a complete stranger. i believe its the little things here && there that make all the difference!!! :)
anyways... i just love you all so increidbly much!!!!
hope you have yet again another fantasticly great week!!!!
