But before the ending gets too spoiled lets jump back a whole week. To start it off, if you remember last email I talked about how much my Zone Leader hated me *in a joking manner of course* so to egg on the meme I did the unthinkable... I made them a "Don't Hate Us" Cake. Now you must be thinking.... well what does that mean for anything? It really doesn't but I thought it would be hilarious, and it definitely was. I brought it to them and what do you know, they think I messed with the cake. To be fair..... it sounds like something I'd do but I'd really just wanted to make a cake. Why do they gotta doubt me??
The next day was epic we had district Council but because our district only has 5 people.... we did it outside and it was GORGEOUS. Literally it was amazing. My watch tan is REALLY coming in. It was honestly one of my favorite district councils ever. Not only because it was outside but we talked about how to more effectively study and it really helped me to refocus my studies. I also had a moment when I realized, I needed more time to study in the day. Like one hour is not enough. There is just so much I don't know and so much I can learn about the gospel that there's no way to fit it all in before I go home.... think about it... if I have 6 months left and there's 4 weeks every month and 7 days in each week and only 1 hour a day I ONLY HAVE 168 hours left of studying..... that's not enough.... I've resulted to reading the Book of Mormon on the toilet... trust me, I literally do.
We had some major bumps this week and by major.... I mean HUGE. So I asked for a Priesthood Blessing. Without going into much detail, I gained such a powerful testimony on Priesthood blessings. During the blessings I received so many answers to prayers that I needed and guidance to my life that brought peace to my soul. There is not a doubt in my mind that God led that blessing and was speaking through the Priesthood holder that gave me one. God is real, and He is doing anything He can to reach out to me, even when I don't think He will.
I also had the first Zone Conference since the shutdown. The whole meeting was centered on how to receive more personal revelation. I have been really trying to develop my own personal revelation and during that conference I realized that I should be trusting that God won't let me do anything wrong more. I need to be more confident in walking forward with the revelation I have received and if it is wrong, He will stop me. It was exactly what I needed to get through the week.
And now we have arrived at the already spoiled ending. Starting this Friday, the trio of my dreams will end. I honestly am really sad about having to say goodbye to Sister Harris but I'm blessed that I still get to be her STL. These past 3 weeks with her have been incredible. Without a doubt it's been such a blast but I know she will THRIVE with her new companion!!
I hoped you enjoyed this update from the land of Colorado!! I love you all!!
Remember God is in the details!
