First off, you just have to know that my comp right now, sister Acosta, is like my best friend in the world. I love her SO DANG MUCH and we were in a week-long division so I got her back last night for the first time since last pday and it was like a sleepover with your friends after a long time apart.

Sister Acosta is standing next to Sister Carroll - what a gift for them to get to be together again, this time as companions

 

WEEK OF MIRACLES!!!
It’s been such a great week. I had a lot of really neat experiences where I felt the Savior very close to me and helping us and the work in a very personal way. It’s not anything big that shapes our testimony, but it’s the daily little experiences that strengthen and help us.

I know that the Lord hears and answers prayers.

I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God, the most correct book on the face of the Earth, and the best way to feel close to the Savior. It is our guide to understanding the Atonement.

I know that God will respond to anyone who asks with a sincere heart if the Book of Mormon is true; I know that the promise in Moroni is true. Sometimes we have trouble recognizing the answer, but that doesn´t mean that we didn’t receive one.

I learned that answers to prayers come when we are serving other people, not when we are on our knees.

I know that when we love someone, we have the courage to say hard things. Sometimes the best expression of love is correction.

Another way to show love is to express confidence and trust someone, even if you don’t think they are worthy of your trust.

Perfection doesn’t come in this life, but we can learn to have the right attitude with our weaknesses.

Love you all!
