We had two exchanges this week and my companions both times were the missionary sisters that I trained here on the mission so it was so fun to be with them again right before I go home. We had some great days together. One of the days, Sister Gepulla was so nervous to have exchanges because she felt as if we would get rejected all day and have nowhere to go. But I prayed and prayed that I could help her area in some way. And then the WHOLE day we taught people and had 6 lessons that day which is a lot for a good day and a good area. So it was truly a day of miracles and I was so happy to see the tender mercies of the Lord in that day. It was a true manifestation of the truthfulness that God listens to our prayers. No matter how many times God answers my prayers, it touches me every time. It never gets old. I love the truthfulness of the gospel.
We also had zone conference, which was my last zone conference in the mission. I was called on to bear my testimony, which is what they do to all those who are about to go home. It was really sad, but to be honest, I am so numb. It does not feel that I am about to go home. I dont really feel anything. It's like a weird point where I feel like just normal and no other emotions. I dont know its hard to explain. But yeah it was all surreall as we went to leave zone conference and everyone I was saying bye to, I did not know if I would see again or not. It was sad for sure. I will miss everyone here so much.
I studied a lot on patience this week in Alma about bearing with patience our afflictions. Like I can't count the amount of times I read that phrase this week. I think it really is important to take a step back and let Heavenly Father do the driving. Just trusting in the conductor and not putting trust in ourselves. God knows what He is doing so there is no reason to fear. He never gives us something we can't handle and that's pretty comforting to me. I know God lives and Jesus Christ is our Savior, and because of that, there is nothing we can't handle. There is nothing we can't overcome. I love this gospel. I love my mission. And I love the gospel of Jesus Christ so much. This church is absolutely the one true church on the earth.
