Thanksgiving y'all!

Monday, November 20, 2017

Hola!

This week has been a blast! I got a haircut today! Finally! And this time it was by an actual hairdresser. It looks good I hope! She also gave me a close razor shave today for free because I'm a missionary! It was kind of scary but my face feels really smooth!

Thanksgiving is around the corner and I have SO many things to be thankful for. But I would like to talk about 3.

Family, Life, The Gospel

I will go through and explain each a little bit more specifically because by themselves they are very broad topics.

Family - My family is one of the biggest blessings God has given me. When we share the , message of the Restoration of the Gospel, one of the first points we share is that the gospel blesses families. I know that families are ordained of God and that they are the central and most important unit in society and in God's eternal plan. Right now my whole family is flying to Germany so they can be together this holiday season and my mom's birthday. I know that I have been raised in an amazing family with good parents that taught me principles of truth ever since I was young.

Life - God has given each of us body's and our own ability to choose. What a wonderful gift. I am so grateful in this thanksgiving season for my own life and that God allows me to learn and grow. He guides me and let's me make my own decisions. Also the beautiful world we have been sent to puts a smile on my face every day! Especially Arkansas :)

The Gospel - The gospel of Jesus Christ is an amazing and beautiful gift. If not the most wonderful gift I have ever been given. Every day I have the amazing opportunity to wake up with the one goal and purpose to invite others to come unto Christ.

In reality I would like to point out that these 3 things should be on all of our 'lists' this year. They are all connected and that is by God. If one of these things didn't make it to the top of the things you are grate ful for this year, look a little deeper.

Love you all!
