Second of all, dad is really about to turn 50?!? That is really old! I was thinking he was still 40 y tanto. Pero, turns out time goes by really fast!
So this week was awesome! First I have to tell you all about the
temple because it was really beautiful. We finally got to go. President
lets us go one time every year, and so we planned it so that our old
apartment could get back together again. It was absolutely beautiful. Going to the temple reminded me of some of my struggles when I was scared to come to another country and try to convince people about some things I wasn't 100% positive of myself. Whenever I would get overwhelmed, I was saved by one beautiful word, LOVE! I can happily say that I
know that God is good! I continue to have to fight for my testimony but
He continues to show me ways how ..... just like He promised me that He
would. I wish I could explain how many times your letters and love that I
got from you were answers to my prayers! This week was no different. I have a testimony but I don´t just get
it for free. I have to fight for it. I have to chose faith which is
sometimes hard for me to do, but I am blessed to make that choice.
So I went to the temple with hopes (and prayers) that I would really feel the
spirit. My prayers were answered!! It was a beautiful session! The love there is so strong. (When I want more faith, God sends me more love!) Not that I
think I am cool or anything but whenever there are lots of missionaries
doing one thing the experience usually turns out to be a little more
sweet. And it was!
It was just so beautiful! I wish I could show you guys all He did to send me love ... from temple workers, my companions, from you guys, but mostly from Him! But,
as Moroni always complains; words are just not enough and neither is my
precious hour and a half to write.
The rest of the week was amazing and hard like always. _____
finally came to church again. He is such a sweetheart. I really love
him like my little brother. He was my first baptism and we have been really worried about him. We went to his house and asked him what had changed. It
took a lot of prodding and reminding him how much we loved him but he
finally opened up. He told us that he was frustrated that he can't get support from his parents. Wanna adopt him, mom!? I wish he could have the type of support and parents that I have.
________ is a manos activo who I love! She can´t read very fast
because she has dyslexia but she always reads with us. She is a sweet
example of someone who is just awesome because of all of her
experience. She left the church because of pride and could not be more
humble now. So I felt impressed to tell her that it was time to go back
to church and asked her if she was ready. She told us yes and that she
would come to church next week! So we will see. I love her so much!
______ is still adorable! We had a problem with her kids wanting to sing in the primary program and having the leaders not let them; I was mad, but thankfully, it did not shake ________. She is wonderful. I don't think they meant any harm, but I DID feel like punching a pillow or something. :-)
I love you all so much! thanks for everything!! Thanks for giving me the faith (and love) to continue!
Love Hermana Webb
