Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone!

You probably want to know what is happening about transfers. Well, a week ago I prayed that if I would be leaving that Heavenly Father would prepare me. He's been preparing me all week. I knew in my heart that I would be leaving and now I'm okay. I'm not sure where I'll be going or what my schedule will be like on Christmas day but I am very excited to talk with you all. :) Heavenly Father loves me and he wants to give me more experiences and more firmness in my foundation. Heavenly Father has given me 5 delicious cookies because he loves me. Now he wants to give me 5 more and who would I be to reject them? Even if they seem new and I think they are a flavor that I won't like...He knows me and he knows that they will be full of joy. I'm excited and prepared to work diligently to live up to my potential and to stop inhibiting myself with concerns and personal fears. I love this work. I love the Lord. I'll go where he wants me to go. :)

I have loved these past 6 weeks with Sister Davis and Sister Nichols. I have learned invaluable things from and with them. We have seen miracles and been amazed by what the Lord can do with a willing heart. We'll all be friends for a very long time and a (large) part of my heart is reserved for Green Valley and the people here. I'm grateful to know that it is being kept in the loving and trusty hands of Sister Nichols. Sister Davis and I will both be packing our bags tonight but I'm so thrilled to help Heavenly Father do his work elsewhere in San Diego. He loves me and gave me 5 cookies because he loves me and who would I be to refuse his gift of 5 more delicious cookies elsewhere. (it's an analogy that has been helping all of us...sorry if it doesn't make sense to you.)

I love you all and hope that each of you can spend more time focusing on the Savior and his matchless gift of Eternal life this Christmas season.
