¡holaaa y'all!
How was everyone's week?? So good I hope!:) Honestly this week went by too fast and it's all just kind of a blur, but gosh life is so good. Tonight Hermana Doman and I went on a little drive right as the sun was setting, and y'all California is so beautiful. Everything just looked pink and we had the windows down and the heat turned all the way up with our good ~wholesome~ music playing super loud. That's my element. It's like one of those moments where you feel so completely content with life and all of your cares are gone for a minute, but at the same time you can just feel God smiling down at you bc he's happy with your happiness, and it's just you and God and your comp riding down the freeway like the happiest little trio there ever was. Idk if that makes sense, but anyways, this week was fun:)
☆do y'all remember our good friend Ivan? He is doing so well! He's so diligent in praying and reading his scriptures and everything, but he is very set on not making any moves until God specifically tells him too. Sometimes though, I've learned that God doesn't always tell us exactly what to do. He gave us the gift and ability to make choices on our own, so sometimes we just have to jump first with mucha fe and good intentions and try to do what's right.
☆Genesis and Angelik!!!!!!!!! They are my favorite amigas. Last week they realized I was leaving here pretty soon, so this week they got us Christmas presents since I'm leaving before Christmas:') I actually almost cried. Also with them this week, we talked a ton about the Spirit and how beautiful and personal it is when we receive answers and promptings and revelations from it.
☆we made some new amigos this week!! La Familia Portillo! We got to meet the two parents this week, and we sat and chatted with them over some goooood tamales for like 2 hours. They are so cool.
☆also! We got to do a super fun service project on Saturday with almost our whole zone. We helped out at this super cool organization where they help people prepare for and get jobs. We helped put in their little thrift shop part of things and sorted through a TON of clothes, fun times:)
This week for a little spiritual thought, my inspiration comes from a not so friendly friend that was un poco confused on who God is to me. So I just wanted to say that without one single doubt in my mind, God is my Heavenly Father. He knows me and He loves me perfectly, way better than I could ever know or love myself. He loves me and you just as much as He loves the people of India or Uganda or Ukraine. He is a God of miracles, joy, light, little and big things, snow storms and smooth seas, and eternally equal opportunity. We are created in His image!! We lived with Him before this life, and He is cheering us on every. single. day. so that at the end this life we will be able to live with Him again. I could never have the words to express all of my thoughts and feelings for my Heavenly Father, but I know that He is looking down on you and me with more than all of the love in the world.
Well hey, I love y'all a whole ton too and I hope that everyone has an amazing weeeeeek!! Hasta luegoooo
Con amor,
Hermana Brayton:)
