tu me das energia

bueno--the subject line is from a regatone song that i have listened to in the buses and what not. and it isnt spiritual at all, but I LOVE IT. you guys should look it up on youtube and listen to it. it is reallllly great. or maybe it isnt that great. hahhhaah but im in peru and my likings are changing heh...
okay. so this week has been good. it has been interesting. i feel like i have learned a LOT of things--about myself, and about the work and everything.
we had our interviews with the new president and his wife and they are sooooo cool and great. i really love that they are our mission parents. they are cute and great.

so this week i learned HOW important it is to alwayyysss have the spirit with you. always. but especially in the lessons. and i learned how much that God loves his children. this week i feel as though maybe i have been disanimated about the work, and not super motivated and a bit apathetic. in my personal study i havent had the spirit super strong, and i was just feeling kind of down a lot. but then this week we had a lesson with Gary, and we were going to teach him about the Restauracion, and i was feeling super stressed because in this lesson we HAVE to have the spirit super strong with us, and if we dont, it will be terrible. so i was praying that i could shake this feeling of disanimation and apathy. and my comp was feeling similarly i think, too.  so we entered into the lesson and 2 members of the church accompanied us in the lesson and we taught in their house, so the spirit was there. and the members were sharing their testimonies and the lesson ended up going super super well. but at the end of the lesson, i felt super terrible, and i realized that even if we are super dummie heads sometimes, God will nooootttt let our dumb head get in the way of the salvation of his kids. he'll find other ways of communicating the truth to them. and thankfully we had those 2 great members. i'm doing better now, and i had to repent about the way i was feeling, but that's the life, right? if we feel this disanimation in our lives, we know that it is from Satan. And it's interesting to see the tools that Satan uses to get us, as his missionaries, down.

sorry if that was boring. heh.

okay, sooo what else, what else. it is a little colder here these days. there hasnt been any sun for the past couple of days, and i hope that we will have some soon. i love the sun.
also, im attaching some photos of the last pday(because i feel that the photos i sent you last week werent that great) and also of my favorite place in my whole sector. it is a little park, and me and my compy go there to plan sometimes. it is soo great. i love it lots. i will miss it when i have to leave this sector.

we are planning to have the baptism of Miriam this week. she is soooooooooooo great. everytime she prays she always says,"and i ask with alllll my heart..." and it is the most sincere prayer i have ever heard. and she prays for my family, o sea, YOU GUYS. !
okay, well, i love you all a whole lot. sorry if this email is boring. i will try to make my letter for next week better.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE,
me
