Dearest family and friends,
Our week was pretty eventful. On Monday evening we had a FHE with President and Sister Maxwell and all the Sisters on the east side. It was heaps of fun and we had a couple trainings that I felt like were just for me and my companions!
We also got to see President and Sister Maxwell again for zone interviews this week. It was exactly what I needed at the time because President Maxwell is so patient and understanding. I had been getting pretty stressed slowly through the week, but after talking with him I felt much better.
Last exciting thing from this week, we had exchanges! Sister Rhodes and I got to go to Dandenong with Sister Wairepo for the day. It was so much fun and so stress free! Exchanges are inspired, they always bring miracles!
Last thing I wanted to share this week is the scripture that I have been "ponderizing".
"Therefore, dearly beloved [sisters], let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed." - Doctrine and Covenants 123:17
As I have been reflecting on this scripture throughout the week I have grown in my testimony that we can only control the things that we do, the things that we put in. We cannot control others agency, but we can control our own. Our job is to try our hardest, to do our best, and then we must wait for God to make up the difference. I know the church is true and that I am doing God's work right now.
I love yous heaps!
