Through Trials

        In the missionary life we experience I think a little of everything the good times the bad times, the most happiest times and then the most sad times. In the last 6 weeks my comapanion and I have gone through a lot of trials with people and specially with love ones that have passed away. They are experiences that have touch my heart in a way that its never going to be the same. Today was a new day, a day of thinking what we need to do to be better, as soon as I said that; all the opposition started everything has been upside down today. But now I look back and I say with tears I love my mission and Its the best thing that has happened to me, I dont regret any of it. With all the trials My faith have grown so much and now I can say everything will be alright just need to trust in the Lord. Today I was just asking myself why Am I Soooo Happy when all around me its going down, and then I thought I have never been through so many trials in my life but having the help of the Lord have gave me peace in all those moments. I am grateful to know that He is there that He cares for me and that He teaches me in a way that I can actually learn and grow closer to Him.

Mi familia Los amo!

   Bueno yo queria hablar un poco en cuanto a mi familia y como ellos han influenciado cada decicion que yo he tomado en mi vida de verdad que no puedo explicar lo que siento por ellos ya que con palabras no puedo describirlo pero en pocas palabras tratare de explicarlo:
        Yo siempre he sido rebelde en cuanto a las reglas que en mi hogar me han puesto mi Padre diria " Ven a las 8" y yo llegaba a las 10 de la noche y entre otras reglas que yo no hacia caso. Siempre, cuando desobedecia tenia una consecuencia que no esperaba pues claro  pero pues luego comenze a saber porque era que ellos me decian esas reglas y era porque me amaban y me querian que estuviera protegida siempre pero para ese tiempo yo no entendia.
       Ahora se lo mucho que los aprecio y lo mucho que ellos me aman y lo unico que quiero demostrarles es ese amor de vuelta , no puedo decirles con palabras lo agradecida que estoy a ellos pero si en acciones.
   Asi es con mi Padre Celestial le puedo decir pero al mismo tiempo demostrarle por acciones mi amor hacia El y lo agradecida que estoy po rlo que hizo por mi! Se que el me ama y que los ama a todos ustedes y se que el nos da reglas (mandamientos) poruqe nos queire proteger y porque nos ama.

My Family

     I would want to say a few things that help me decide to come on a mission. First of all I want to talk about my family because they are the biggest part of that decision. My oldest brother decided to come on a mission and he did and he came back and everything good I didn't had any intentions to go on a mission, then my sister that comes after him decided to get married and by then I still didn't thought about going on a mission, then it happened, the sister that comes after the one that got married well she had a boyfriend and my mom was telling her to get married but she said to my mom that she wanted to go on a mission and then everything change for me I said to myself  Hey! I want to go on a mission By that time I was decided I had like 17 years old and she was the example for me she was everything that I needed to actually make my decision about it. Then as I was thinking a lot about it, I saw all the blessings that she receive after her mission and all the blessings that she has right now like her family. Everything its so different because she decided to go on a mission and put the Lord first in her life and then do the rest. I love her example in my life after that my other sister went on a mission as well and my brother and then was my turn finally but the decision was already made long ago. I am grateful because they gave me the example and we help each other a long the way now as I see their pictures I think this to myself " How did they did it?  I know its hard specially when you are so far away from the people that you most Love but their love and example are there and gives me the strenght to continue end say that  can do it as well  I know Im not alone I have a family that is supporting me in every step of the way and I love them so much I cant say in words how much thats when I just dont know what to say because I can just let them know by waht I do rather than what I can say thats me! I will show you what and how I feel by what I do and thats why I am here because I love the Lord and I want to Love others as He loves them and help them to know that they are not alone that Gos loves them thats why I am here and I love it its the most amazing decision I have ever made.

My Heart sings, My Heart Regoices

 I wrote a little something when I was in Buffalo so here it is...

     When all is coming to an end, when all you seek is strenght, when all the day you just sweat, when all your feet are in pain, when all you hear is negative. People is blind, when all you want is for them to be happy. But then when all you know is now doubt... Dont lose the Faith.
      When you know that is the truth just keep on going, when you know God loves you, just keep talking. When you know theres never a place like home, just pray and know you are not alone.
       When you know this makes you happy, dont doubt, is God that wants to know if you love Him too. When you just dont know what to say, the spirit will let you know, say only the truth.
        When people dont hear you, even to Jesus himself they didnt listen. Just keep declaring my words for this I have called you. You are not alone, I love You, When all you think is lost, then you can hear Him say, Go on!!  Just Go on! 

" Fear thou not; for I am with thee; be not dismayed; for I am thy God; I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will up hold thee with the right hand of my righteousness." 
                                                                        Isaiah 40:10

With open Hearts

 When we think about opening something its kind of like a curosity to just know whats inside. We can think about christmas time when we want to open our presents and we are exited to know. In our lifes is the same with what we have inside our own hearts that people would just like to know more about it. When we have Jesus in our hearts we can actually give more to others, those gifts that we have from Him. As a missionary I find myself just trying to really be like Him so that I can be a better helper and a better gift to others. This week I had to open my heart to love something in my mission that I didnt love and I knew that I needed to change but I wasnt willing to open my heart to it. But then it all begins with prayer and asking yourself why I need this and why is important. Something amazing happened God answer my prayer through someone else and as I was open and willing to learn I let it be a part of me. I realized that God had answer me before but I didnt have my heart open to recieve it. He prepare me little by little, and He was patient with me too sometimes I can be very stuburn. I am grateful that I could open my heart to recive answers from Him when we do that then he trust us more and can know that we can continue learning from Him and acctually let Him teach you. I have felt that every time that I am humble(witch mostly Im not) and let Him teach me then is that my Love for Him grows more and more just because He loves me enough to be patient with me and waits until I finally get it. I know that He Loves the same everyone and He will help you in any way and in all that you do the only thing is that we have to be open to recieve.

 Jesucristo es el Centro de nuestra Vida. Al pensar en Jesucristo y en su amor por mi pienso en lo bendecida que soy al saber que alguien dio su vida por mi porque me ama simplemente. Algo bien interesante que mi companera siempre me dice es que aunque fuera yo la unica persona en el mundo entero Jesucristo se hubiese sacrificado por mi solamente. Asi de grande es su amor por mi y por ti. nosotros como seres humanos siempre esperamos algo a cambio y en verdad que deberiamos simplemente dar y no esperar nada a cambio dar de nuestro amor a todos sin esperar nada. Amo el ejemplo del Salvador por mi y su maravilloso sacrificio por mi y por ti y por eso lo amo y quiero ser un instrumento en sus manos para siempre.

La mision es lo mejor!

 Desde que llegue a la mision me he visto en muchos cambios tanto de lugares como de personas y todo ha sido de buen agrado. La primera area en la cual estuve fue en Buffalo y fue una experiencia hermosa pues conoci a muchas personas especiales y que cambiaron mi vida. Estuve alli por 2 meses y luego me lllamaron a Rochester el area de Brighton y en esta area he estado 7 meses. He tenido experiencias que me han cambiado totalmente en especial el haber conocido a tantas personas que estan felices por el mensaje que traemos y he visto como ha cambiado su vida para mejor no he encontrado mayor satisfaccion que esta, de ayudar a otros a ser felices por medio del evangelio de Jesucristo. En esta semana he visto en mi vida como este conocimiento me da paz y me da fortaleza aun en momentos dificiles como el estar sin tu familia y el tener que aprender a vivir en un lugar nuevo y en lugar donde no conoces a nadie. Pero eso es solo pequenas cosas pero lo mas importante es que he aprendido mas sobre las personas y sobre Jesucristo y eso ha anadido a mi amor por Dios y por todos los demas. En el Libro de Mormon hay una escritura que me encanta y dice: " Por tanto, debeis seguir adelante con firmeza en Cristo, teniendo un fulgor perfecto de esperanza y amor por Dios y por todos los hombres. Por tanto si marchais adelante, deleitandoos en la palabra de Cristo, y perseverais hasta el fin, he aqui, asi dice el Padre: Tendreis la vida Eterna". (2 Nefi 31:20) Yo se que la mision es lo mejor que yo pude haber escogido en mi vida. Se que Dios nos ama y que quiere que todos lleguemos a vivir felices aun luego de esta vida y se que Jesucristo vive y que es nuestro salvador y redentor y que por medio de El puedo ser limpia del pecado y ganar la vida eterna que es el mas grande de todo los dones de Dios y se que ustedes tambien lo pueden hacer !

El evangelio en mi vida

 La manera por la cual llegue a conocer sobre el evangelio de Jesucristo fue por medio de mis padres. Hace mucho tiempo atras llegaron a la puerta de mis padres unos misioneros de La Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Ultimos Dias en esos momentos mis padres estaban pasando por muchas situaciones y pues estaban casi a punto de divorciarse pero al escuchar sobre el evangelio decidieron cambiar sus vidas y entonces fue que ocurrio un cambio. El cual me ha bendecido a mi grandemente ya que por su decision yo pude llegar a conocer a mi Padre Celestial y confiar en El. Se que cuando moldeamos nuestra vida a las ensenanzasa de el evangelio las cuales estan basadas en el amor, el perdon, la oracion y la comunicacion directa con nuestro Padre Celestial invitarlo a nuestras vidas y hacer lo que nos manda. Mi familia ha sido bendecida en muchas cosas pero lo mas importante es que tenemos a Cristo en nuestras vidas y todo lo que hacemos como familia nos acerca mas a El y nos da la oportunidad de ser mejor y de amarnos mas y a los demas no solo a los que estan en nuestro hogar. Se que el evangelio es verdadero que cualquiera que lo viva encontrara paz en su vida y un curso directo a la salvacion. Amo lo que hago como misionera y estoy agradecida por la decision de mis padres al aceptar el evangelio.
