Good morning! I hope everyone had a terrific Mother´s Day! I sure did here in Brasil, cuz I got to talk to my FAMILYYYYYYYY. It was fantastic ☺ And also the weirdest thing ever because I realized that the next time I talk to them, it will be at home. In America. At the airport. WEIRD. ahhhhhhhhh the time is passing SO SO SO fast!
But
let´s see. This week was good! I made a division with Sister de Jesus
who is from Rio Grande do Sul! It was pretty fun, I got to go to her
area! I´ll send pics!
Other
than that, I don´t know if I have any really funny or interesting
stories. Sorry folks... But I do have some interesting pictures to
send of my area! Ya´ll will like those :) So my area has like this
salt-river/sound! It´s pretty cool! Of course, we can´t go in the
water or boating or anything as missionaries, but it´s fun to admire and
take pictures!
Here´s
an awesome verse I found this week. "Where no counsel (Councill) is,
ther people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors (Councills) there
is safety." Prov 11:14
Pretty fantastic, right?? 😂😜
So
yesterday during Sunday school we talked about testimonies. And there
was one quote that reallly REALLY stood out to me. If I remember the
references correctly, it is right after Christ has his "for I am the
bread of life" talk. A lot of his followers didn´t understand the
meaning, and decide to leave him and Christ turns to His Apostles and
asks them if they will leave him as well. In the scriptures they
respond, paraphrasing, "it´s true, where would we go Lord?"
The
quote that I wrote down from the lesson was, "It´s true, is it not?
Then what is more important?" This really stood out to me because it´s
SO TRUE. We know God is our Father in Heaven. We know He has a plan for
us. We know the commandments, we know what we should do. So, what is
more important?
I hope that we can always remember what is most important when we are faced with new decisions, new obstacles.
and, I hope you all have a wonderful May week!
Love ya´ll,
xo Sister Councill
