"I am called of God. My authority is above that of kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my master and He has chosen me to represent Him--to stand in His place, to say and do what He Himself would say and do if He personally were ministering to the very people to whom He has sent me. My voice is His voice, and my acts are His acts; my doctrine is His doctrine.My Commission is to do what He wants done; To say what He wants said; to be a living modern witness in word and in deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous Latter-day work. How great is my calling!"

take 2

TAKE 2
Yesterday I took Sis. Morgan to Missoula and picked up my new companion Sis. Smith. Sister Morgan was so sad to be leaving and cried a lot when she left but will do great. I love Sister Smith already and I'm so sad I only have 4 weeks with her. She is from Sacramento,CA and is best friends with one of my fav sisters at Temple Square. She was actually Sis. Morgans MTC companion and just came from serving in WY with Sis. Reyes. So now we have a nice little circle of friends! When I found our Sis. Smith was my new comp Sis. Morgan said,"Oh you will love her so much. She likes to teach people, tract, workout...she is nothing like me" hahaha that cracked me up. I have a feeling that we are going to see a lot of miracles in the next four weeks, particularly with part member families; I'm excited!
Honestly, I can't remember what happened this week-it's all a blur =/Sister Morgan did hair for 2 years before her mission and so I asked her to give me a trim and one side of my hair is ridiculously shorter than the other—like two inches, ha! So sad, but I’m getting it fixed next week and buying hairpills, it’s all good.
Anna Gail is doing really well and still has her baptism glow. Tuesday night there is an awesome addiction recovery program at the church and I saw her there last night and she said,"I'm here to recover from liking bad men!" She seriously cracks me up and I hope you can meet her some day. Sam (14) said a few great things to me this week and I can really see a change in her. She said, “I really feel comfortable with who I am now. I dress more conservatively and I don’t argue with people anymore, it’s cool.” She also said, “Before I got baptized I didn’t want to have any kids and now I want to have a dozen or so.” Haha these are just a couple examples of the changes she has seen but its pretty neat. I like Anna and Sam because they were already happy, amazing people before, but now that they have embraced the gospel they have really blossomed and seen so many improvements and blessings in their lives. The gospel works. That’s all I gotta say. Most people we meet are just content with where they are and can’t imagine life any better and I just want to say, “You should probably accept it NOW before something bad happens to you that makes you turn to God!!!” But I try to hold it in =) So many people are “poor weather fans, including me. We only turn to Heavenly Father when times get rough…that’s something I’m working on. Anyways, sorry for kind of going off there….
Life is great, I couldn’t be happier.
I love love love love love you!!!!!!
