Keep Praying!

As a loving sister reminded me of, that the time before my mission will be one of the hardest times of my life. Satan is trying to tear me down. He knows I will be a great missionary, and he doesn't want me to accomplish the goal I have set for myself.

My Bishop told me in my interview to remember that Satan is going to hate me for three things. 1) I have chosen to serve a mission. He is going to do all he can to make sure that doesn't happen. 2) As I am on my mission, he doesn't want me to find the people who are desperately searching for the true gospel of Jesus Christ. He doesn't want me to find them, and help them change their lives. 3) As I help someone change their life, think of all the generations after them who will be affected by this great work. Those three things are what Satan does NOT want to happen. Well, guess what?! He cannot stop me. :)

I am grateful I have a loving sister who reminded me of what my Bishop had said to me. I need to stay strong, and of a good courage. For the Lord, my God is with me. Withersoever I goest. (Joshua 1:9)

Well, my call was not issued this week either. :( It's okay though. I am learning patience and the power of keeping your mind occupied with work and school. I am lucky to have a job to help pass the time. I will even be able to come home for the three day weekend (which so happens to be EASTER!) I love spending time with my family. For I have been blessed with a great family. Keep praying for me!
