You are a funny daughter of God. I think I like you.

Can we all agree that my subject line is the best pickup line anyone could ever use? Thank you and goodnight. 

So, this week was a week, and I'm not sure what else I should say. Needless to say, it was a fun week. We continued our endeavors of making food. Sister Whitcomb makes tortillas and I'm in charge of the meat, and the Hermanas whip up the extra fixin's. In case you wanted to know, happiness is fish tacos. And I will stand by that till the day I die. It's so much better cooking for four. 

Our teaching and studies have been great! We have had more lessons and things this week which have been awesome. We are teaching a new girl named Kayla. She is a crackup. She's around the same age as us and she is just so perky and happy. She's a joy to talk to and be able to teach. She's like a lil sponge and just soaks up what we tell her. I really hope that we can bring her the gospel because she needs it so much. I'm so so so excited for her. The gospel just gets me so excited! 

Oh, also this week, I've been going back through General Conference talks, and right now I'm on Elder Uchtdorf. I LOVE that man. He's so full of love and the Spirit. Specifically, I love it when he talks about love. In one of his April 2010 talks, he says "We can spend our days obsessing about the finest details of life, the law, and long lists of things to do; but should we neglect the great commandments, we are missing the point and we are clouds without water, drifting in the winds, and trees without fruit." The great commandments he refers to are the commandments to love God and love thy neighbor as thyself. I totally agree with him! Honestly, I agree with him. Sometimes it's easy to let the distractions and shiny things of life detract from the most important things. Never neglect love. The Savior never did. Love is the reason why he walked to the Garden, love is the reason why he accepted the burdens of the whole world, love is the reason why God Himself created the Plan of Salvation! If love motivates Him to do all He does, then it most definitely should motivate us. 

I hope you all remember that God loves you. So much so that He would sacrifice everything for you. That love never ever changes. Seriously. There is nothing you can do to retract it. 


Alma 58:11 "Oui, et il arriva que le Seigneur, notre Dieu, nous donna l’assurance qu’il nous délivrerait ; oui, au point qu’il apaisa notre âme, et nous accorda une grande foi, et nous fit espérer obtenir notre délivrance en lui."

Que Dieu vous bénisse
