No, no it can't. Let me tell you why:)
First, SISTER BARNES GOT BAPTIZED!!! Words cannot describe how amazing
of an experience it was! She was baptized this past Sunday and my
heart almost burst with happiness to see how many people came to show
her support on such an important day. It's a day I will never forget:)
The Spirit was so strong, and it just got stronger as Sister Barnes
bore her beautiful testimony to everybody there. I know that this
Gospel is true and I have seen the power of the Spirit working in
Sister Barnes' life! I am forever grateful to Heavenly Father for
allowing me the opportunity to know her and share the gospel with
her:)
Another piece of WONDERFUL news! Sister Bain is safe here in New
York:) I got to see her yesterday and it made my day! Also...... I am
training!!! And my companion happens to be Sister Bain's MTC
companion, Sister Hess!
Let me tell you a little about Sister Hess:) She is amazing! I am so
blessed to have her as my companion, she is so willing to learn and to
work! She has a powerful testimony of our Savior and she really wants
to share it with everybody! We went to go get ice cream yesterday and
I said the deal was that we could get it if she gave a card to the
cashier, and she DID! Like a professional:) Our day yesterday was full
of moments like that, it helped me to learn even more how short our
missions are and how we need to always strive to make the most out of
it. Lesson number one I have learned from Sister Hess! I know there
are plenty more to follow!
We also had an amazing lesson yesterday with a mother and her 3
children. We met the, last week and we have already met with them 3
times, I have never met anyone with that deep of a desire to KNOW! And
their lives have already been blessed because of it, they have been
keeping all of the commitments we have left with them. And yesterday
we taught about the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as we were talking about
the Spirit the mother testified to us about the Spirit that has come
into their home since they have been meeting with us, and I we were
able to feel just how much their life has changed in just the past
week. It seems like such a short time to be able to see such a
difference, but I know that is what the Gospel does for our families.
Our Heavenly Father's blessings are immediate when we are keeping the
commandments. We may not always recognize them, but they are always
there! And I am so happy for this family who have been able to
recognize so clearly how the Lord has blessed them!
I love this work, I love the trust that our Heavenly Father has in all
of us! He KNOWS we can make it back to Him someday! And I have faith
that all of us truly can make it back to Him, and that we will! I love
you all, have a beatific week! (That's the new word I learned this
morning!)
Love, Sister Jones
