14 days...

14 days till I'm gone :) 

Today I spoke with my mission President (President Alba). I just had some questions. He is really kind. I'm very excited to meet him and his wife. I have a picture of the both of them:

President and Sister Alba :)

HERMANA

I'm very excited, nervous too but I can't believe the time is really almost here and that my dream will finally come true. I really hope I can be a good missionary and give my best. I want to be a faithful, obedient, strong and loving missionary. Share what I know it's true with everyone that is prepared to receive this great and perfect gospel :)

This coming Saturday is my Mission Farewell (Mi Despedida) September 1st :) 

Well I have to go because I have to sleep. See you :)

22 days..

Hi :)
22 days till I leave. How I feel? I'm usually very thoughtful and I've been thinking a lot about the lessons :) especially about the Restoration and I've been thinking a lot about the book of Mormon. Why? Well because this is one of the first things you teach an investigator and the first impression is always very important and I want to be able to explain things in a way that people can actually understand me and feel the Holy Spirit because I will teach the investigators, but it is the Spirit who will testify them about the truth but I have to do my part by being ready to answer questions and to explain about this beautiful gospel :) 
I am very happy that I have the opportunity to serve a mission, I know the mission will help me in so many ways that I can't even imagine. I hope I will be strong and endure till the end of my mission and I hope I can be a good missionary :) 

My favorite scripture!

Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of

myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many


 mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever. 


(Alma 26:12)


This is my favorite scripture, there are so many scriptures to like because the word of God really gives us strength and comfort but this one just really touches my heart because I know, I know I am nothing but if God is with me and He helps me, I know I can do all things. That's why I really love this scripture :)

My birthday!

Hello everyone! Well this post is about gratitude. I am thankful for so many things.

• I have the gospel in my life :)
• I have my family by my side, especially my gorgeous and wonderful mother.
• I have friends that are amazing.
• I am thankful I am finally 21 years old.
• I am thankful I can get prepared to go on a mission.
• I am thankful that soon I will finally send my mission papers and I will finally know where I'm gonna go.
• I am thankful I have good health.
• I have amazing friends!!!

Well, I have so many things to be thankful for but those are the main ones. Yesterday I celebrated my birthday with my family and some good friends and it was great :)

The cake my mom bought me...so pretty :)

I had an amazing day! And today was great too (Today June 3rd is my official birthday) 

Noviembre sin ti (November without you)

Well I know we are not on November anymore, I wanted to write a few more things during the month of November but sadly I couldn't because I was doing other stuff.
November is a month of gratitude. We should all be thankful everyday for all the blessings we have in our lives but November is just special because it is the month of gratitude. Anyways, on this post I want to write about the things of which I am grateful.


I am thankful because:


-I know I am a daughter of God
-I know Jesus Christ is my Savior and Redeemer and I know He loves me :)
-I am super thankful because I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I couldn't be happier and I mean it. Having the gospel in my life is just such a great blessing, such a great guide in my life, when I think about my life without the gospel I get kind of scared thinking where would I be if I wouldn't have this guide in my life. I know I might not be the greatest person but I know that If I hadn't the gospel I would be in a really bad place.
-I am thankful for my family, they support me a lot, especially my mother and I love her because she is always there for me when I need her.
-I am thankful for all of those blessings I have everyday, when I can see the hand of the Lord helping me with my everyday problems.
-I am thankful for having important things like a family, a home, a warm bed, food, clothes and well the list can go on and on...
-I am thankful I am a seminary teacher because I know I am not there because I know everything, I am there because I need to learn more and I am actually learning a lot and I never thought I was gonna enjoy teaching the Old Testament, it is hard though but I am actually understanding the Old Testament now :)
-I am thankful I am serving in the Young Women Organization, just like seminary I am also learning a lot :)
-I am thankful with my Heavenly Father for providing me a job and when I don't have a job He always provides me the way to pay my bills and things that I need, really He has never left me alone. NEVER!


The list can be endless...but I guess I'll stop here.


I know this is super late but I hope you all had a great thanksgiving! :)

I feel my Savior's love!

Hello everyone! Well, I want to start my blog by saying that I love my Heavenly Father and my Redeemer Jesus Christ. They are amazing! And I wish I could be better just because They deserve that and more. 
Sometimes when I look at myself, I always feel that I need to improve, that there is more I could do or more I could give and that what I'm doing is not enough. I pray to the Lord so He can help me, because He is the only one who can actually help us, and when I feel that way, He always sends people to remind me that He loves me, and even though I am not perfect, He makes me feel that He is happy with the effort I am making. I love my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ because they never leave me alone, They love me and love each one of us and I know it because I feel that love in my heart. I am so blessed because I have the gospel in my life. I feel blessed because how many people are out there who don't even know who is Jesus Christ? or maybe they know who He is but they don't have Him in their lives. I wish I could see my grandmother right now and hug her and thank her for taking me to church when I was 9 years old. That was one of the great things she did, to take me to church so I could learn about the gospel of Jesus Christ. I thank her because now I have faith in Jesus Christ, because now I am a member of this amazing church: The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints, I thank her because what I've learned in this church, I wouldn't have learned in any other place. It is true that when you do the little things, big things can be achieved. 

This is one of my favorites hymns. I hope you like it!

Life...

Hello everyone! Well today I decided to write in my blog since I haven't done it in a while. I know I'm not a really good blogger...I should be better haha but sadly I just don't have time sometimes. Anyways! Today I am very thoughtful (Well to be honest, I can be a very thoughtful person) I think so much about my life. I think of the things I have and on the things that I don't have, but I want to get better at recognizing the wonderful blessings that I have in my life because If I think of the things that I wish I could have but I don't, we are just gonna get depressed here, and no! That's not the point!


Today was a great day, and you know why? Because I worked! It is a wonderful blessing to have a job, even if it's one that you don't really like too much, but THAT doesn't matter too much because how many people are out there begging for a job? and at least I have one :)


I am so thankful I have my mom by my side, I try my best to be an independent person, but seriously my mom helps me too much and I don't know what would I do in life without her. Moms are amazing! :)


I am so thankful I have the gospel in my life! I would never get tired of saying it! I don't know how my life would be like without the gospel of Jesus Christ....I am sooo blessed!! Knowing that there is Someone up there loving you just the way you are, hoping that you will be better but loving you with pure love still, knowing that there is an AMAZING BEING taking care of you and telling you: Don't give up because I am with you and I won't live you alone!


I am blessed because I have a place where I can always stay with my family, a calm place :) I mean a place where I feel good and safe because If we are talking about my house being calm I would be lying haha during the day my house is most of the time full of people and we can be kind of loud....We are Mexicans, what can I say? haha :) 


Well, I'm gonna hit the road. First, because I don't want you (the reader) to get bored! 
Second, I have to go to bed and rest because tomorrow I have to work too.
and Third, because my mom is going to kill me if I stay late using the computer :) haha you know! Mothers!!!! :) 




Well before I go, I want to share a video that I love it has nothing to do with my subject but I love it!

I am still obsessed with the guys from "Il Volo" I can't believe they are so young and they have such incredible voices!! :) Well hope you guys like it! Bye! :)
