Hola a todos [Hello all],
I really enjoy this talk because it helps me focus on trusting the timing of God. As humans, we want what we want and we want it now. Sometimes His will is otherwise. Have faith and believe that he will bless you in the future.
Esta semana [This week]:
♡ Exchanges this week w/E.Miller. He is a legend. 
♡ We had interviews w/President Brough this week and he helped me to recognize that a mission is to teach me skills for the rest of eternity; not to "bring me to a certain level of righteousness". 
♡ The weather is warming up! We did weekly planning outside while throwing a Frisbee while riding a ripstick. 
♡ DC training was given on sacrifice and consecration. 
♡ I got to watch a 9 yr old friend from Hartford, his name is Kenneth, get baptized! I'm so proud of him. 
We found two people this week! We had 10 friends at sacrament meeting! Which is a new record (half of them were at the Groton Ward). That was really cool. Three of our friends: Tina, Devon and Victor are all telling us they want to be baptized so please pray that we can put them on date. We had a lot of member visits this weekend. In one of them, their 3 yr old daughter would not stop crying but when I offered her a balloon, she instantly stopped. Thanks mama y papa.
Not too long ago a friend wrote me a letter about faith. Specifically faith in God and that he can do all things. She basically called me out for not having enough faith. That caused me to seriously reflect on my faith and my standing before my Heavenly Father. That letter helped me to recognize that I need to be more specific in my prayers and that I need to believe and hope in Him. She also shared a scripture from Genesis: "Is anything too hard for the Lord?" Thank you for the loving correction.
Send me a message if there is anything or anyone that I can pray for! 
Love y'all

Joshua 1:9
"How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of those who shall hereafter publish peace."
Generosity can replace animosity. Reflection can bring perception. But reflection and introspection require time. So many spiritual outcomes require saving truths to be mixed with time, forming the elixir of experience, that sovereign remedy for so many things.
Believing is seeing.
It has been said that a patriarchal blessing is a [paragraph] from the book of your possibilities.
The spirit of the gospel is optimistic; it trusts in God and looks on the bright side of things.
