Tender Times

Sister Missionary Roommates

Mexico City Temple Visitors' Center

I am HALFWAY through the CCM! I can't decide if I feel like I have been here for 2 years or 2 days, it depends on when you ask me... but what I do know is that it is amazing. 

Today we got to go to the temple again and I don't know how, but I'm pretty sure it was even better the second time. I went into the Visitors' Center and met some of the missionaries serving in my mission! They were so sweet and so excited that I would be there in a few weeks. It made me SO excited to get into the field.

As hard as days in our lives can sometimes be, when we look for the Lord's hand, we can't really complain. Tender mercies are like my favorite thing to look for, because I can always find them. This past week, actually I think it was yesterday, I was just having a really rough day. The Spanish words weren't coming during my lesson, and lots of other things I felt justified about complaining about. 

Bring on the RAIN!

BUT after our devotional last night, still feeling a little rough and beaten down, I walked outside and it was RAINING. (I love the rain; my spirits are always lifted when it is raining outside.) God is so aware of us; the little things that matter to us, matter to Him!

During our Branch Meeting this past week we talked about how the Lord's hand is in everything and about how when we feel like we can't see tender mercies, we need to be one. And in my opinion, when we turn up, things turn up. :)

Have a grand week!
