So I get on a plane tomorrow! I am so excited and ready to go! I am really not that nervous or
scared, but I will probably get a wake up call when I get there! ;)
Not a
ton has happened this week, so I really don't know what to write. I will leave just a small spiritual thought! :) The Lord loves all of us
and he cares about every little thing we care about. I was able this
past weekend to see a perfect example of this. Sunday
morning I was just thinking "I should try and find everyone I want to
say goodbye to today." Sundays are easy because everyone's schedule is
mixed so you have a great chance of seeing them. I went through the
day and saw one guy here, another there, and I had set up to meet Kyle (Todd's cousin) after the devotional (he left early Monday
morning). When I got back to my room, I realized I had seen
every single person I wanted to. I didn't even pray, but the Lord still
made it happen. And even if it hadn't happened, I would have been like, oh
well! :)
Then, that night I was getting a bag ready to send home and I thought that I was done, and right when I was about to finish my
packing, my companion says "Think I should send my big Preach My Gospel
home?" and I remembered that mine was under the desk, WAY out of sight, and
that I wanted them to go home. The Lord cared enough to have my
companion say the right thing that helped me remember something.
The last example
actually happened yesterday! So I was in class studying, and I ran out of
water in my water bottle. I went out to fill it up in the hallway, and right when I turned to go back into my room, I hear
someone say "hi Elder Naylor". I turned around, and Julia Bunting is standing right there!! I talked with her for a few seconds and then she needed to go, but I just
got thinking, what are the odds of that!! It was her first day and I leave in two days, and she was in 1 of 19 buildings that all have 3 plus
floors, and she got hired to one specific job out of the millions that
are here. And she was standing right outside my class!! There is no way
that the Lord was not involved in that!! And for what specific purpose? I am not sure, but it was nice to see another friend before I left!!
So
the Lord wants to bless all of us, and he will! Maybe sometimes its hard
to see for ourselves, but He always is! Just stay strong and keep
praying! :)
