Hello Friends of America! Still reporting live from the beaut SoCal! :)

 

This week yielded much greatness.

Among the elongated drought of California, we've had a drought of work the past seven weeks. Still staying busy, but I could count the number of lessons we taught last transfer, with one hand. Ha.... rough life BUT God is so good to us and provided 3 new investigators this week! I truly believe there are millions of people prepared it's just a matter of us finding them!

So along that topic, lately I've been thinking a lot about Choices.

I want to talk about not necessarily good and bad, black and white choices, but the many levels of good and mediocre.

Each one of us face so many choices each day, the small choices as well as the big ones can lead us on exponential amount of paths. I think there are many righteous routes each day that can lead us to similar outcomes it just depending on our little choices, it leads us to a specific trail.

For example, maybe there were three people today that were super ready to hear what I was going to say, but depending on my little choices throughout the day it lead me to the specific person I ran into. Similarly, these decisions that may seem minuscule shape who we are and our destinations. 

Whether it be who our spouse will be, what our career may be, where we'll live or who we'll become.... I don't think there's just ONE that is right and we just hope life takes us there, but rather it's through the choice we make and the walk of life we carry that will institute our arrival at A right destination.

(Disclaimer: I have made poor choices and I know I will make mistakes, but thank the high heavens perfection is not required.)

Each choice brings experience. Each experience effects our character. Our character/who we are is what attracts opportunities. Opportunities, and choices within those opportunities, determine destiny.

"The door of history turns on small hinges and so do peoples lives..

"If we choose Christ, we will have made the correct choice." -Thomas S. Monson

"It is not meet that I [the Lord] should command in all things,.. men should be anxiously engaged in a good cause, and do many things of their own free will, and bring to pass much righteousness; for the power is in them, wherein they are agents unto themselves."

I share all of this because I TRULY BELIEVE WE CAN BE ALL THAT WE MAKE UP OUR MINDS TO BE.

We are created by and in the image of the Almighty God of the Universe. Our limitations endless and our potential great. We must not let the blindness of mortality hinder the significance of choices and our profound potential-- but let us expound our minds to the eternities.

OUR CHOICES DO MATTER BECAUSE WE KNOW WHERE WE ARE GOING.

YOU SHAPE YOUR LIFE HOWEVER YOU WANT IT.

Xo I love you humans and I can feel the physical manifestation of your prayers.

GOD BLESS :,)
