How are you?
Or hoe gaat het?? Things are going good on my side. Things are stll rough and challenging but I am really doing my best... And working my hardest to give the Lord all of myself.. But this week I want to write you and who ever else reads this email about miracles. I received an email from Tay Swensen last week. He is now returned from his mission and gave me some advice that he received as a young missionary. And this advice has changed my life and my mission in the short week I have applied it. He invited me to write in my journal only about the miracles that I see in this work. I usually write about who we saw, what we ate, and what ended up going wrong. But I have really tried to take this challenge. And it has been really challenging some days to see the bright side. To pick out the tender mercies of the Lord, but as I have been diligent in doing this I have only begun to write more and more as the days go by. And Tay, if you read this, I want to say thank you. It has changed my life. Changed my attitude. And changed my relationship with God. This is a work of Miracles. This life is a miracle. And too often we get caught up in the negative and forget to see what we have done, how far we have come. And as I have focused on the little miracles that I see everyday, more and more catch my eye. And things that I didn't used to see stick out. I am so grateful for this challenge and I want to invite you to do the same. Focus on the miracles my dearest Mama. I know we have all made mistakes, but that is why Jesus suffered so that we don't have to. And he allows us the opportunity to see miracles everyday if we look for them.
I Love my mission, and I love Him. I am sorry that this is short. but I feel like there is nothing more important that I could share.
