Week 38
This was sick week...AGAIN! It's literally the worst being
sick on the mission. But on the bright side- I have done tons of studying in
the last week! My companion has a weird fever that won't go away and I have
heat exhaustion (so they say) but we are trying to do our best and get out
working. We have some good appointments lined up later and are just praying
they happen!
Last week I had a lot of time for journal writing/soul
searching/pondering. All of it! It was really good to have time to process all
of the things I'm learning. It was especially good to take some really decent
time to pray and think of how I can help my area. I'll probably only have a few
weeks left and I want to leave a really awesome area for the next sisters. As I
was writing in my journal, I was thinking about how I want to apply my study
habits in my education and in gospel study after the mission. My companion's
job before the mission was an advisor for BYU and she taught me some really
good study tips. So that is what I am working on this week! Forming better
study habits that I can apply in all aspects of my learning.
I loved having lots of time to study the scriptures this
last week. I studied Doctrine and Covenants mostly. I'm learning a lot about
who Christ is and how He, Heavenly Father, and the Holy Ghost all work together
to help us be happy in this life and the next one. This last week has been a
little tough- i miss my investigators. But I'm trying to keep a good attitude
and have plenty of patience!
Have a good week!
Love
Sister Gaspar de Alba
