monday musing #21

October 20, 2014
hi friends!

I just want y'all to know that I ate breakfast every.single.day this week. and thatis a big deal. #beinghealthy

Not even sure where my spiritual thought comes from, but somehow I just ended up thinking about alabama a LOT this week. And I miss it more than ever. In fact, my thoughts went so far as to want to put on a nametag and knock on some doors. Can you believe that?! My companions all know that was probably one of my least favorite things to do, but it just sounded like so much fun for some reason! I miss talking to all the crazies in the ghettos of the south. And all the sweet hispanics! 

At church today we were talking about being in the world, but not of the world. You sisters are the perfect example of this. You go around wearing a skirt, with scriptures in hand, going places you probably never imagined you would be in or would never choose to go to, and talk to all sorts of people who may or may not be way off the path of righteousness. All in hopes of bringing them closer to our Savior. You leave all worldly things behind and are solely focused on the gospel even though you are surrounded by worldly things wherever you go. 

Sometimes I really miss that lifestyle. It's still possible, but as a missionary it's a little bit more extreme. Never forget how great your calling is and enjoy all that door knocking because for many of you that time is wrapping up! 

I LOVE Y'ALL more than saturday night football. 
But as much as I love football, 
it's a little difficult when your home team is struggggaallin hardcore.  

have a good one!
