By Small and Simple Things

May 26, 2014

The great thing about having I-pads is we can email on Monday holidays! Just find a spot of wi-if and off ya go! 
 
So, something I thought of this morning when I was showering was that our mission president has a vision of getting 756 baptisms this year for the whole mission. That sounds like a lot, but what it boils down to is 1 baptism per unit (ward or branch) per month. That's the English program's part. In the Spanish program, the one I'm in, his vision is 1 baptism per companionship per unit per month. It's a big testimony to me that "by small and simple things are great things brought to pass" and it emphasizes personal responsibility, because in order to help my companionship do that, I need to be prepared. "The Lord will put prepared people in the  paths of His prepared servants." That's what Elder Ballard told us and I believe it. 
 
A song that my companion shared with me this week is "beautiful for me" by Mercy River. I really like it. It talks about how beautiful we as women are on the inside and that Heavenly Father sees us that way. I recommend listening to it. 
 
Well, I gotta go, but I love y'all very much and I'll talk to you next week!
