Hey Family💜
Secretly hope you have Bon Jovi stuck in your head now from reading my caption. (Thank you for all the wonderful birthday wishes! You are all truly my inspiration) I'm still in shock that I'm actually 20 years old..but let me just tell you..having a birthday on the mission is THE BEST. Especially in the Spanish program😏
Another magnificent week full of learning! The thing that probably impacted me the most is that God truly has a plan for us. And he's given us all different challenges. He KNOWS what's up. He's given us all a different story. All unique in their own way. One that can shape us into something amazing if we let it. One of our investigators is so certain that he will never be able to change and grow. I am here to tell you all that that is not the case. Our savior Jesus Christ suffered through all that we have ever and will ever suffer through so that would NEVER be a problem. We all have room to grow..we all have the ability to change..to BECOME!! ISNT THAT AMAZING?!
As we sat down in Burger King to give a lesson to our investigator the spirit spoke so strongly through my amazing companion as she told him.." Ok that's it. I am here to tell you that God loves you! That he gave you a different life than I but that doesn't mean that my life doesn't consist of problems and trials..because it sure does!" She pointed to me and said " I don't think I would ever be able to handle loosing a little brother! There is absolutely no way I could do it..but He knew that Hermana Rogers could do it!" Then she points to our investigator and said " God knew that there was no way I could live without a family..but he knew you could! And you're doing it!" God gives us weaknesses so that we can be made strong. One of my favorite scriptures Ether 12:27 And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them. I hope you all know how much the Savior and our Father in heaven knows you individually. Don't ever doubt it. He puts trials into our lives so we can grow and so we can remember who we need to turn to. He is the creator. He knows how to cure you SO LET HIM! He literally wants to give you the whole world..all we have to do is follow him. As a representative of Jesus Christ I testify that He is the way and the only way! "Oh sweet the joy this sentence gives..
I KNOW that my redeemer lives!"
Have a great week!
