Max y Living Water

June 8, 2020

¡hola y'all!

    Wow I feel like last Monday was just yesterday bc this week flew by!! But I hope everyone is doing so well and staying happy out there. Life is still (always) good here in Cali and we're still (always) some happy boys:))

    Not a whole ton happened this week, but a big highlight was going to see my best friend Max. He's so precious oh my goodness. He has a lot of ~deep~ questions, so we talked with him for a while about why we're here and what our purpose is in this life. It was a pretty great time, and then he went and surprised us by getting his guitar and singing us a few songs before we left. He is such a SWEETIE pie abuelito and plus he told me he could make me some more spoon rings so I'm excited:)

    Other than that though, we're really pretty tranquilas over here. Except last night we got a little surprise and Hermana Black and Hermana Llontop came over to our apartment at like 10:45 bc their apartment got termites yikes. It's so fun though bc I have more people to talk to in real life and I miss that sometimes hahah so hopefully they stay for a while.

    But let's see, this week we had a big ole zoom meeting with our whole mission, and President Golden was talking about the story of the woman at the well in Matthew 4. So I went through and read it again, and Jesus talks about how he provides "living water." Verses 13 and 14 say, "Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life." I lovvvve that bc it's so symbolic, but it just makes SO much sense to me. A lot of the things in the life that value, or even the things that we worry about, will not last. Our temporal struggles, triumphs, desires, and things like that could for surely be good experiences to help us learn and grow, but the things themselves will •not• last. How beautiful is that though? Jesus Christ WILL last, forever and ever and ~ever~ for literal eternity. His love, his grace, his help, his comfort and care; the "living water" will never end or dry up, and I can promise you that:)

    Pero sí! I love y'all a whole bunch and I miss y'all!! Remember to show some love to someone who needs it, Jesus will be proud:)

Con amor,
Hermana Brayton 😊
