First Transfer!!

Okay so first I got a package with socks protein powder and mints thanks that stuff looks good. also I got Kelsey's package.  It was a sweet package and I enjoyed the candy already but the jerky and granola bars are going with me.

Dang Its transfers and I have got the news I've been dreading. I have to leave Dilkon. It is and will be tough but I knew it had to happen eventually.. I have been in Dilkon for 7 months and it was awesome.   I love the people there so much.  Sunday was really hard. 

 I am going to Page AZ and will be serving in the 5th ward. It will be weird being around so many white people (no offence ). I am looking forward to it though.  It sounds like almost everyone from Dilkon has immediate family that lives there so hope fully I can find them. 

This week was a pretty good last week we saw most everyone at some point.  I am grateful for the opportunity to be able to get to know all of them and hopefully to have taught them something at some point that they will remember. Because I will definitely remember what they have taught me. I had a lot of fun in Dilkon too.   (probably to much, ha ha)  Anyway, this week was super windy so I got a kite.... it broke in like 2 days but it sure was fun and I learned something from it.

                  The kite only worked with a constant wind blowing against it. and when the wind really picked up like 20- 40 mph the kite would nose dive. Then when it was at the right angle to catch the all the wind it would take off right as it hit the ground and go back up as fast if not faster then when it dove. The kite only broke when I misused it and misguided it .  The string broke and it was gone and I couldn't catch it.  I believe that this applies to life.  We cant move forward or go up (progress) with out resistance or opposition.  Also, when life blows to hard we sometimes nose dive because we weren't in the right position to take the force but once/if we adjust we often shoot back up even higher. Finally,  the flyer or guide is God and unlike me when I flew the kite He wont misuse or misguide you or tie a lizard to you and see if you can still fly. He will guide you so that the wind or your life experienced will make you more like Him. 

My ponderize is Mosiah 4:21 this scripture talks of how much we rely on God and how He gives us so much so we should also give to one another.

love yall

General conference weekend update

So this last week was crazy and this next week will be too!  We just had zone conference which  was amazing and so was General Conference.  I have so many notes I cant believe it. I Loved all of the talks I cant choose just one. There were a few that where especially helpful for missionary's and they helped and inspired me. This last weeks weather was cold but today is 84 degrees and its awesome. I may have gotten sunburned. We went on a hike after I emailed last week it was sooo awesome we found an old, old wall that was built by the natives out of the rocks around the butte.  It was also like 50 mile per hour winds -that was crazy!  I thought we were going to blow of the butte. Today we went to our branch first councilors house in joseph city and ate lunch, shot some pool, and oh yeah got to cut down some trees. He is a 7th generation woodsmen . He is awesome. The drive to their house is beautiful. This week we found some very promising people and I cant wait to get them progressing towards baptism.

My ponderize scripture is mosiah 5:2 which was talked about a little in conference (that's kinda why I chose it ) it says ]
2:And they all cried with one voice, saying: Yea, we believe all the words which thou hast spoken unto us; and also, we know of their surety and truth, because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent, which has wrought a mighty change in us, or in our hearts, that we have no more disposition to do evil, but to do good continually.

I really like the part that says ..."which has wrought a mighty change in us, or in our hearts, that we have no more disposition to do evil, but to do good continually."

I know if we let it the gospel can do that for all of us. I know because I have seen that happen for lots of people, myself included , slowly but surely.

I love you all and wish I had more time to email ya'll but I don't so
