Finals Week

Well, I am a little glad this past week is over. It was a tough one. It was difficult, yes, but I learned SO much. I am beginning to realize that I learn the most during the hardest times. Looking back I wouldn´t change a thing.

So, lets just jump to today. Today is my very last P-day with Hermana Giler. I try not to think about it...because when I do, I cry. I don't want her to leave me!!! We have transfers next Monday and she is most likely moving to a new area and I´ll get a new companion. Yes, it´s sad and I have NO idea how I am going to survive without my trainer in a new area, but on the other hand I know this next transfer will have a lot of room for growth (and a lot of room for sincere prayer.) In reality, Hermana Giler and I had an incredible transfer. Anddd to celebrate we are going to Ikea. Yes, as in the furniture store. We´re stoked about it.

But this week was great, even though it was a little more difficult. I say it was great because I did learn a lot. I say it was difficult because it was crazy busy! We had two intercambios this week, so we did a lot of traveling and I did a lot of relying on the spirit to help me with my weaknesses.

Yesterday was a great day, though.  I am sooo thankful that Hermana Giler didn´t have to leave for Barcelona last night. I was worrying about that all week and last night we realized that she needed to be here for a couple specific reasons. We were talking about how our Heavenly Father knows all things and how important it is to have trust in Him. In the end, things always work out the way they are supposed to.

This transfer has been amazing. We were blessed so much and we have a lot to look forward to in our Ward and in our area. This next transfer we have baptisms planned for almost every weekend and a lot of people who are willing and accepting of our message. Our area really has transformed these past several weeks and we´ve witnessed the Lord´s hand in this work. I love seeing the changes in people as they invite the Gospel of Jesus Christ in their hearts. It´s been beautiful and I only pray that I can continue to see this change move forward. I´m ready to put exercise more faith and work hard.

Also, we are seeing a lot more trust in our ward members. Yes, we have a lot of work to do, but we are definitely progressing and moving forward in the right direction. I have some ideas in my mind that I want to implement these next couple months. And with the help of my new companion, here come the referrals.

Have a great week!!
