ah. here we are. another week down. and it is 2021??? HAPPY NEW YEAR! This is exciting! I feel like 2020 was the year of waiting, and 2021 is the year of action. Things are gonna get better!! I can feel it:)
This week was good! We had transfers which was BIG sad. I love Sister Matthews. I am so so so sad we only got 1 transfer together. I also only got 1 transfer with Sister Vela which is kind of rude if you ask me. I don't get enough time with my companions:(
BUUUUT, I got Sister Little and she is a RIOT. Holy moly talk about energy, she has got it. Like I seriously don't think this girl gets tired. She always has energy and I am amazed. She is a burst of light all the time. I love her. Should be a fun transfer!
We have spent a lot of this week in Draper Suncrest (which is the very top of our mission and it is absolutely beautiful! We like to try and go contact people there at night because you can look out at the skyline and see all of the lights and the city. ugh. IT IS SO PRETTY!! One day I will be able to go over the mountain, but until then I will take what I can get!
New years was fun! We had to be in by 6, so we spent a lot of the time working on social media stuff. I run an account on Instagram called christ.and.me so give it a follow because I am working my butt off on it and could use people boosting it. SO PLEASE GO FOLLOW IT AND SHARE THINGS TO YOUR STORY I AM BEGGING YOU! Anyways, after we did all that we drank lots of Martinellis and made a list of things we wanted to let go of in 2021 and surprisingly, it helped a lot. I feel like I had a lot I needed to get off my chest.
So here is my rant/testimony for the week:
I hate new years resolutions. I think they are stupid and we always end up quitting like two weeks late. Why do we wait A WHOLE YEAR to make changes in our lives, when we could use the Atonement of Jesus Christ and try again right now? Just because we fail at our goals one day or one week or month doesn't mean that we have to throw in the towel and pick it up next year. We can start over and make another goal. I love goals. I think they are what motivates us. They give us a destination, but a goal is nothing without a plan, so we MUST have them. So make goals and determine a plan to get there!! MOST IMPORTANTLY: never underestimate the power of Christ's Atonement!!!! It doesn't matter where we have been, He can heal us, He can strengthen us, He is our brother and our friend! And he UNDERSTANDS!! Trust Him. He loves you.
So here is to 2021! Whatever it brings, just know God is only a prayer away!!
Love,
Sister Brady
