I hit my year mark in the mission. AND EVERY ONE BROUGHT ME STUFF!!!
Our lider misional brought us lomito. Which is a steak sandwich with a fried egg. Street carts sell them on every corner.
And her compañera gave me earnings.
Missionary birthdays > real birthdays.
This week was really hard, but I´ve never had the sacrament be more spiritual than it was this week. And I prayed, repented, and thought of the lyrics of I Stand All Amazed- I began to cry. And every testimony that we listened to for the rest of the meeting had the spirit so strong. I love the testimonies of the church members down here. Basically every one is a convert, and KNOW that these things are true, and the difference that the gospel has made in their lives. They testify of the doctrine- the Book of Mormon, Thomas S. Monson, Christ, Jose Smith, and never finish with out saying that they know this is the only true church. I felt so peaceful leaving that meeting that I can´t even describe it.
I´m eternally grateful for the opportunidad to use the Atonement. I know that Christ lives, and loves us. We can change everyday, and continue on in our quest to be perfect like him. And when we have our Gethsemane´s we have to follow his example and pray.
Don´t take for granted the sacred experience of the sacrament.
