Some-Bunny Loves You

April 6, 2015 
So we had a pretty sweet week! Starting with my favorite part......GENERAL CONFERENCE! Hurray! Man oh man, I didn't want it to end. I loved Elder Uchtdorf's talk on Grace! and Elder Holland's was amazing as always. I'm so grateful for such amazingly inspired leaders. I felt like so many of them were written just for me.....along with 15 million other people haha. Yep, it's pretty great. Miracle moment: Carol, the one who has a hard time with crowds came and watched General Conference with us at a members place! She stayed for both Saturday sessions and we had a nice lunch in between. Gilbert and Abby also watched it at our ward mission leaders house with us. Yeah, I was excited to say the least. I was so conscious of whether they would understand what the hey anyone was even talking about haha, but that is where the Spirit comes into play. It teaches us in ways that words can't and I felt like they were all able to understand it pretty well. They really liked it too. Carol has come so far and I'm so grateful to see her growth and progression in the gospel. We taught her the Word of Wisdom and she readily accepted it and everything, even though she loves her tea and coffee. I feel like she is happier and happier every time we go to see her. 

So for Easter we wanted to get out the HeLives video to as many people as we could so we went and bought a whole boatload of candy and Easter eggs and a member help us print a really pretty quote on a little 2 by 2 card and on the back it said  "the Sister missionaries have an Easter Video message for you" and then it listed the website fr the video. So we stuck those to the eggs and dropped them in all of the members mailboxes and doors. It was so fun and it made me happy. I like doing little things like that.

 Easter is the most important day of the year. It means a whole lot more to me this year than it ever has. We really do owe everything good in our lives to Christ. My understanding of the Plan of Salvation has really grown a lot since I've been out. It really is such a great plan. It gives me so much comfort because I know that everything will work out for everyone. The people that don't understand now will get a chance. The people that suffer will find peace and the seekers will find what they are looking for. We will be judged by an all knowing and all loving God that knows all of the could haves, should haves and would haves. It really is all in His hands and none of our happiness and joy in life would be possible with out Christ. My heart almost hurts sometimes when I know that people don't understand or believe that. I love them so much and I just wish that they knew everything that I do. I wish that they understood just how much it can mean in their lives. I wish that they knew how much God loves them and wants them back with Him someday. But I'm mortal and all I can do is my best and hope that they feel His love through my words and actions. God will take care of the rest.
I love you all so so much! Have fun at the family get together and take lots of pics!

Lov ya lots,

Sister Prows
