Mongolia! The view after we hike this hill to get to an investigators house! (: Super good lesson! |
The spirit speaks in all languages let me tell you. We got into a taxi last Monday
and I carry pass along cards but don't often give them out, but this
time I had a distinct thought we need to give a pass along card to the
driver. So I gave it to my companion with the money to pay for driving
us. My companion then started talking to her, because I can't talk to
people about the gospel without my companion starting the convo. So they
were talking and we found out she was a former investigator,and wanted
to learn more and later in the week we had an appointment with her and
it was soo good, some of her family was there. She even invited the
neighbor to stay for the lesson. IT WAS SOO GOOD! The spirit is real and
is able to help me even though I don't know Mongolian (:
Just
so you know the Book of Mormon fixes everything. We had a lesson with a
less active about tithing and we gave her a pamphlet, her little 2 year
was looking at the pamphlet and one of the page folded up. He was
getting frustrated because he couldn't get it to straighten out, so he puts
the pamphlet on the table and started whacking it with the Book of
Mormon to try and fix it! haha #thebookofmormonfixeseverything
#evenworksasaHammer
My companion asked me to
pray in a lesson since I can sort of do that or so I thought. So I said
the prayer and I tried to say please help us to choose the right and I
asked for other things and closed the prayer. My companion kind of
laughed and said that instead of saying please help us to choose the
right I said please bless the right onions?! HAHA! I don't even like
onions #choosetheright #onions
In a lesson the
other day, this investgator has a cute little 9 month old. (: they gave
us cookies to eat and I was trying to break a cookie in half and when it
broke I made kind of an "ahh" sound as it made a mess all over my lap.
Then the baby takes the cookie out of its mouth and makes an ahhhh sound
but much louder. Then my companion said we both make the sound the
same. and then in Mongolian I said "it's because we both don't know Mongolian" they thought that was funny. I have to say I was proud of
myself for being able to be funny in a different language :P

I
will ask people questions a lot and I would say my question structure is
improving a lot! But sometimes I will ask people a question and they
will correct my question but then not answer it haha (: #wait
#ineedananswer
Chapstick isnt neccesary here,
the food is oily and therefore keeps your lips nice and moist... not sure
how I feel about that (: #ummm
This week I
realized happiness isn't getting ice cream, cookies or being able to
speak a language perfectly. But that happiness is 100% determined by
us?! We can CHOOSE to be happy! I don't know why it took me to come on a
mission and realize that haha (: #duhmoment #choosehappiness
#findjoyinthelittlethings I have to say what really brings happiness is
counting your blessing and ultimately this gospel, what more can you ask
for? #truehappiness (..well I'd still like warm water in our appartment
soon, that would be good)
Life is good! and I am choosing happiness (:
