It is Written

Great first week in Pinnacle Mountain!! Since we are in the ward with

the Mission Home and President we were able to help out with the

training meeting for the new missionaries. We had some of the sisters

who were going to be trainers stay at our house for a couple of days!

It was a party. Also, I'm so happy to be with Sister Lange this

transfer! The spirit told me a couple of months ago that my next

transfer would be to Pinnacle Mountain with Sister Lange as my

companion and here we are. We live with members, the Tarboxs and they

are so fun. They've been out of town so we are taking care of the

house, cats, and plants #responsibility . Our area is straight up

Little Rock!!!!!!!!!! Like the city!!!! We walked around the city this

week and it was unreal. I love it. Sister Lange and I have hit the

ground running this transfer and are excited about what is to come in

our area, companionship, with the sisters we have stewardship over,

and all other aspects of the work. It's going to be a goooood

transfer. This week we've been raving about scriptures and how

incredible they are. They are the words of the Lord and they are

powerful. I love the story in the New Testament where Jesus Christ

fasts for 40 days and then is tempted by Satan. Over and over again he

says, "it is written.." and then goes on to quote scripture to combat

the tactics of the devil. I've been trying to memorize scriptures a

lot lately so that I can follow Jesus' example and be able to say, "it

is written..." and share scriptures directly from the Book of Mormon.

Scriptures invite to spirit and teach true doctrine. Christ himself

has said, "Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal

life: and they are they which testify of me" (John 5:39). I love y'all

and I love being a missionary. This is the best time of my life and by

far the best time for my life.
