MTC WEEK 2

hi all my peeps!! 

another great week here in the MTC. i have been learning so much and making some of the best memories of my life! i am so thankful that i have the chance to be here, i think about how lucky i am everyday. 

so something i learned this week was about obedience.. it starts with a funny story! one of the rules in the classroom is that we aren't allowed to have food in there because of the "distraction" it causes, yeah i am a punk! so of course when we had class time and the teacher wasn't there we all brought food to share. it was easy for us sisters to get rid of the food we didn't want anymore because the elders were always willing to take it off our hands! wellll... someone left a starburst wrapper on the floor & our teacher sister harris (who is basically training us as cadets or something) SAW IT ON THE FLOOR!! well when this happened it was only us four sisters in the room & she questioned us about it, & I COULD NOT LIE so i am the one who took all the heat for only ever eating ONE STARBURST.

& then she called me unto repentance which was so incredibly awkward and hilarious all at the same time & yeah.. i learned that that i should probably be a little more humble and obedient. even if i am not perfect, i need to be striving to be. it is a funny story, but i understand that we get blessings from being obedient, and boy do i need those blessings! president monson said it best by stating: "a knowledge of truth and the answers to our greatest questions come to us as we are obedient to the commandments of God". 

i got to see my bff sister sorenson!! WE HAVE THE SAME PAJAMAS! so of course we had to take a picture. she wants me to tell her family that her p-day is on thursday but she is alive & that she loves being here at the mtc! she has a great companion and is learning and growing everyday. 

tomorrow i leave for georgia and i could not be more excited! i know that the lord is already preparing someone to hear the message that christ would have them hear. it is so humbling to be on his errand. this is the work that will change my life forever! thank you all for your love! i feel it everyday. 

till next week!!
