for dinner, my ma, pa, and i took the Elders (male mishes) out to good ol' Golden Corral. it's always so fun to learn all about missionaries and hear them talk about the gospel and utah and temples. it's even funner to here them sing modern pop songs hahah. the entire dinner, songs were playing, and the Elders were talking about how much they missed music. they continued talking and singing, constantly mentioning the tender mercies of the Lord. (it's amazing how everything always comes back to our Heavenly Father!)
unfortunately, I had to leave dinner a bit early to meet the Sister missionaries and pick them up to go to some appointments. most prominent in my thoughts this evening is a visit with an inactive family. this visit reminded me of my own family. i know that my church is God's true church--i have no doubt in my mind--and i want my entire family to feel the blessings of being a part of it. although we are all baptized into the church and sealed as a family, i want my brothers and sister to raise their families in the church and be able to be with THEIR children for all eternity. i surely want to raise my children in this gospel and be with them and my eternal companion for forever.
this evening continues to support my desire to go on a mission. i am so very blessed to be a part of this gospel and have a testimony of it. i want to share this gospel with people everywhere. i want to help families be together forever. i want people to know that they are loved--so very loved--by our kind and gracious Heavenly Father and savior Jesus Christ. although my future is still a bit shady, i know that this gospel will help me light it up. no matter what, i will go on a mission. i know it is something that i need to do. it is something that i WANT to do. i have no doubt in my mind that a mission is not for me. i am so so so very excited.
