my mission...

i am so excited to go on my mission. like, i really feel strong this is what i need to do. i have had speculation about going on this mission but i truely know its what the Lord wants of me. there are people in Buenos Aires and where ever my mission covers that are waiting to hear the gospel and i will be able to help them understand the happiness that our Savior Jesus Christ wants us to know. i was just reading my friends blog. she is on her mission somewhere in the mid west or something and everytime i read it i am filled with the Spirit of the Lord. happiness always comes along. its likes a 2 for 1 deal, you cant get one without the other! hahahahahahha i am soooo using that in my farewell talk lol. by now if i actually wrote all those sayings down, i would have like a full page of things to say, just on random quotes, to talk about at my farewell lol. in the wise words of that samoan or tongan guy from "the other side of heaven",


HURRAH FOR ISREAL! that is soooo going at the end of every message lol.

new scriptures...

soooo i got this new set of scriptures. its the big font ones. i basically got it so i would have it for like life. pretty much i got it for when i get old and i cant see my hand in front of my face. im excited for them but only downfall.... i feel like i cant touch them lol. i dont want to get them ruined or bent or something lol. eventhough their scriptures and they will get sat on, marked, bent, etc etc. iono i have all my coloring stuff ready to color code but i feel bad marking up a new set of scriptures lol. maybe because my other set is so old, by that i mean like 11 years old, and those scriptures have gone through alot of wear and tear. iono. just a random thought. 18 days before i leave. AHH EXCITING!

disturbing...

so right now im watching one of the religious history shows on the history channel. I find some of these teachings to be very sketchy. One thing that really bothered me was how they are interpreting Jesus Christ. Two of the religious professors, one from prinston and the other from somewhere else, said that Jesus failed his mission the first time he came to the world. iono but i got a little angry. that TOTAL false doctrine! if they really look deep into the teachings of the new testiment and nothing else, the basic doctrine you will see is that Jesus Christ bleed from every pore. He atoned for our sins. THAT was his mission to the earth. To that extra hand that we needed to be lifted up to live with our Heavenly Father again. If he never did that, then He would have failed, but as we can see, HE DIDN'T! LOL i find that these professors, of major university's, to be teaching false docterine. Like if we are teaching false doctrines in our colleges, you are leading people astray. People follow by example, and they are giving false doctrine to students who will soak up that knowledge like a sponge. Now, being LDS and understanding the Plan of Salvation, gives us a better idea to why we are hear, what the Savior did for us, and so forth. I want to be a religion professor one day, and i hope that when i am able to teach people, i will be able to give a reliable and truthful synopsis on what each religion entitles and how we all benefit from each of their teachings. Unfortunately, will little knowledge to what the true gospel entitles, people misread and misinterpret the Bible's teaching. O when the time will come when all will know of the glory that our Heavenly Father has planned for us since the beginning of time.

i am living proof that prayer works!

today, oooo goodness. was a day to talk about. ooooookkkkkkk. soooo i woke up and today was the start of me taking jerret to school. i get him ready and out of the door and i start the car and it was like "ehh i really dont feel like starting for you today" mode and i was like oooo gosh here we go again lol. so then i finially get it going and i take jerret to school. drop him off and on my way back to jerret and jamies i stop at this new bagel shop and i was way excited cause i havnt had bagels in a while. soooo i get my egg, cheese and bacon sandwhich on an asiago cheese bagel, sooo good. then i go and start my car and it just clicks. im like, CRAP! then after a couple times, i decide, HELLO! why dont i pray and then go from there. so i bow my head and pray and ask Heavenly Father to help me start the car or to help me figure out what i should do. Then i call my mom and am like... MOM the car wont start lol. then after about 10 min on the phone and many failed attemps later, i call AAA. they send a guy and we thought it was the battery then they guy comes with the cables and that wasnt it. he did something iono, but he started the car like 100 times and got it going. then i was afraid to turn the car off again lol so i called jeremy and krista and went to rancho to get it checked out. so krista and i drop the car off at this shop which is packed with cars, some even with busted windows, as i plainly saw in the 90's buick window where i parked next too lol. so i go back to jeremy and kristas for a bit and i had to pick jerret up from school at 1:52 and it was like almost 1:00 and we call the dealership and they tell us that they havnt even looked at the car. i was like... crap! that meant that i was gunna have to drive jerret and jamies honda civic, which is stick shift, and i never got stick shift down. i was like freakin out a bit. i dont like stick and i feel like i am gunna die, expecially on hills lol. and HELLO FOLSOM!!!! lol. so im like oookkkk.... jeremy and i go out and he refreshes my memory on how to drive stick since its been a bit since i drove stick. i drop jeremy off and say another prayer helping me get to pick up jerret safely and I TOTALLY DID! for real! it was by the grace of God that that happened and nothing else. i totally was freaked out of my mind to drive on the roads, which i never droven on before and EVEN THE FREEWAY! but i felt like i kindof knew what i was doing today. really weird like, i felt i have been driving alot longer than what i have practiced with a stick, if that makes sence. i know it was only because Heavenly Father helped me and made me feel confident about what was happeneing. im still a little nervous and i think the like 4 poeple who were behind me when i stalled and almost backed into their cars today feel the same way hahaha.

moral of the story...
prayer does work lol to sum that big paragraph up lol
