The Best Combination



Sisters Greenwood & Maynes
Although my Spanish doesn't flow much at all, this past week has flown by. My ward here is so loving, everybody cleans their sidewalk with soap and a broom, they are constantly playing music or setting off loud firework noises, a dog almost bit my hand off, I know how to make a couple Mexican dishes, and this morning we had a district activity with WAFFLES. We all made waffles and had juice and shared family photos and it was a wonderful time.

Pancakes!







The best combination is everything I mentioned above mixed with, and more importantly, what I mention next, because new gospel insights are my favorite thing.

I had an interview with my Mission President this past week and asked him something along the lines of, "How do I know that I am doing enough? I want to do all I can to be the best missionary I can be." And what he said surprised me. He said, "You will never be enough." 




While that was a low blow, it really got me thinking. He's totally right - I won't ever be enough - that's the beauty of this gospel. We can make it ONLY WITH Christ. He doesn't just make up the difference, He is the difference.

If you get the chance, read the talk, "His Grace is Sufficient" by Brad Wilcox. Now my focus is to do what I can each day, re-evaluate, and try to do better the next day. That's what life is all about right? Doing what we can and loving what we do. :)


Have a magnificent week!

Hermana Greenwood :)
