Hello! Time is flying and it's
scary!
First off, everyone sounds super
depressed Scott has left home! Lighten up! Instead of making his small family
happy by his mere presence he gets to share his uniqueness with thousands of
people! I have felt a special spirit this week as I have thought of Buggsy Boy
being a missionary at the same time as me. He is going to be so great! He
is a good boy.
I have been thinking how important
knowledge is. I remember things used to be a lot simpler in my head when I was in
high school, and it was because I didn't know anything! I have gained so much
knowledge in the past year and I have had converting experiences that have
given me a surety of that knowledge. Granted I am still about 5 years behind
everyone else because I am finally figuring out that I need to actually know some
stuff instead of faking people out.
We have seen so many miracles
lately. There has been this boy that has been coming to church with one of the
Laurels in our ward and he finally wanted to take the lessons! He is such a
sweet kid. He's 18 years old and looks
just like Scott.... I started tearing up as I pictured this young man in a suit
with a missionary tag on. He needs to join the ranks so he can bless others.
New converts always relate to investigators so well. Anyways, yesterday he said
he would pray about getting baptized on February 2nd - pray for him!
It is so important to say and do
what the Lord would say and do if he were personally ministering among the very
people I have been called to minister to. Any other way is just no good.
Yes mother, the weather is a fearsome
thing to behold. My body aches sometimes...but like everyone does....you think
of the pioneers and you push on:) I am happy. Life is good and if I don't get
into BYU mother, I will be perfectly ok with that. Then I can cut hair like I've
known I should do. haha.
Well, see ya! Hurrah for Israel!
