day 2/3

SO MANY GREAT SCRIPTURES..... some of these are from day one but whatever:
1 Nephi 9:6
    "But the Lord knoweth all things from the beginning; wherefore, he prepareth a way to accomplish all his works among the children of men; for behold, he hath all power unto the fulfilling of all this words. And thus it is. Amen."

BOM 30 day challenge

On sunday the bishop challenged us to read the BOM before next fast sunday, I won't be here for next fast sunday but I figured I could blog about my experience doing it. As I started this challenge I also decided to only listen to MO TAB, which is all I will be able to listen to on my mission, as well as some other gospel music. So Day one was 2 days ago but i'd like to share a scripture:
1 NEPHI 1:20
"...But behold, I, Nephi, show unto you that the tender mercies of the Lord are over all those whom he hath chosen, because of their faith, to make them mighty even unto the power of deliverance."

wow how awesome is that? I know that I have been able to experience so many tender mercies of the Lord, because of my faith and because he loves me, I cannot tell you how many days I have felt like I was ready to give up and someone called or something happened to lift me back up and set me back on my way :)

mission time

I totally knew that I would be HORRIBLE at doing this blog, but soon it will be turned over to someone else who will just post my letters, which will be great!.... okay so lets see what has happened? I got my mission call to "THE" mission, aka Texas Houston East! haha about 2 months after receiving my call my mission president, who is new as of july, finally sent me a letter and guess what? i need a bike :P ugh, its all good i'm excited to be biking in the humid heat all day! I went to the temple and it was such a great experience, i didn't really think so when i first went but after everything settled i was amazed how wonderful it actually was. Wearing "Gs" is really not bad I got used to them pretty fast. Now its less than a month until I leave for Utah and I'm freaking out just a little but its okay cuz I know this is what i'm supposed to be doing!!!!
