Yup, I got tranferred this morning. I am now serving in
Hermosillo, in an area called Balderrama with Hermana Castro, from Morelos
Mexico. She´s super awesome wtih only 3 transfers left in the mission, so I've
got alot to learn fom her.
This past week I was pretty much sure I was being
transfered, more than anythgin because President Myers has a rule of 6 months
maximum in an area with vey very few exceptions. And so it was kidn o nostaglic
and also supe hype at the same tme because there was feelingss of "noooo
Huatabampo" and also if this is my last week in Huatabampo, I'm giving my
all and leavign this area well worked so I can leave feeling good. And so, we
worked. Sister Salas is doing amazing and she has really started to blossom in
her ability to teach and open up to people. I'm just really glad that I was
able to be a part of her mission and watch her grow and I'm excited to keep
watching her grow as she continues to learn and become more like Jesus Christ
and I'malso really glad becasue this experience has helped me personally
becoemmuch more ike Chirst and more ike the misionary that He wants me to
be.
There's a scripture I realy liked this past week in Doctrine
and Convenants which says, "and again, verily I say unto you that it is
your privilege, and a promise I give unto you that have been ordained unto this
ministry, that inasmuch as you strip yourselves from jealousies and fears, and
humble yourselves before me, for ye are not sufficiently humble, the veil shall
be rent and you shall see me and know that I am—not with the carnal neither
natural mind, but with the spiritual." (I definitely copied and pasted
that from Lds.org sorry because I only have my spanish scriptures with me). But
I absolutely love this scripture and the promise it brings! It is my greatest
desire to know and see Christ and I love thi scripture because maybe I wil
necer have the priviladge of seeing him in person before I go the way of all
the earth, but wehn I do die I want to know Him os that when I see Him, it
would be as if I ha seen and known Him in personin this life.
I know that He livesand is mindul of me and of my needs and
my thoughts. I know that He died for me and paid the price of my sins nad
errors and also the price of al of my burdens. I know I can change, and can be
a better person if I listen to Him and come unto Him, that I can be perfect,
"yea, even as (my) Fatehr in eaven is perfect."
I lvoe you all and am sending you my love from Sonora,
con mi amor eterno, Hermana Rawlings
