Week 78!

me & sis ricks got the most fire matching glasses on pday.

i went to hobbs for exchanges with SIS HUNTER!!! my queen wow. we had some incredible lessons... one of the best was with a lady named lizeth whos on date to be baptized and SHE IS AMAZING! the poster child for finding joy in the gospel fr

we had a little galentines dinner ft bishop fife at the fifes house and it was so fun! our friend mon was at dinner too & she shared that she had been reading the book of mormon one day & as soon as she finished she found her stolen bike! she totally connected the two!

our friend colby came to volleyball & we gave him a BoM and he seemed so excited to read!

sis romans, the office secretary, put a picture of me & sis ricks on the background on her office computer soooo we're basically her favs:,)

SARAH GOT DUNKED!!!!!!! sarah is one of the most prepared people ive ever met in my life! she is so committed to the gospel & living it daily. im so grateful i could be a small part of her journey:) her boyfriend, boyfriends parents, and her parents came in town for the baptism which was the COOLEST ever! her dad (whos not a member) made some comments at the end of the baptism about faith which was super inspiring.

to be quite honest, i have felt very overwhelmed the past couple weeks. theres just so much to be done and not enough time & i feel the urgency to do it ALL even though thats literally not possible. its a hard place to be in:,( i just feel like ive been made so painfully aware of my weaknesses and every place i fall short!

but my angel comp showed me an amazing scripture this week that i love so much:

2 corinthians 12:9-10

"And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong."

i know that christ can make my best efforts enough! because i am weak, i have to lean on christ to strengthen me... me + christ = infinitely strong! im grateful for him!

love yall!! have a blessed week!
