June 8 letter-I love being a missionary!!

What a wonderful week!  I have been trying lately to reevaluate and really find ways that I can improve and be more obedient. Being a missionary carries with it a great responsibility and I know that many people are depending on me to have the Spirit with me so that I can help them come unto Christ. So I will continue to seek for ways to be more obedient and have the Spirit of the Lord with me always.  My companionship with Sister Acosta has never been super easy, but I am learning so much. I know that there are things we are learning from each other and I am so grateful for the opportunity to be able to see my flaws and work to change and overcome them. I have also learned the great importance of eternal companions. I know that there will be disagreements sometimes, but as long as those disagreements are handled with a spirit of love it will all be okay in the end. I know now how important it is to find someone who sees eye-to-eye with me on the "big things", that way we can get over it when we don't agree on the little things. 

We have two investigators getting baptized this Saturday!!! Brother Danny!! And Brother Jhun!!!!!  As I was thinking about them the other night I was about to say to myself about one of them, "He's my favorite investigator!" But then I realized that that wasn't true. Honestly, ALL of my investigators are my favorite investigators. I can feel the Lord's love for His children and I know that no matter how stubborn they are or how many problems they have, the Lord loves each of my investigators the same and I do too. I love them all and I am so grateful that the Lord has given Sister Acosta and I the sacred privilege of helping them come unto Christ through the waters of Baptism. I love being a missionary!

Also what a great Monday! I just love my family!!! I want to be with you guys forever! As in forever. I know that Heavenly Father is listening to our prayers and I know that He will never leave us alone, even when we are far away from each other. I know the Savior lives and that He atoned for us all. No matter how big or little the sin, or how heavy or light the heartbreak.. the Atonement of Jesus Christ covers it all. I love learning more about His Atoning sacrifice and doing my best to use that Great Gift every single day! 

MAHAL NA MAHAL KO KAYO!!!!
