It doesn't make sense..

So I know this may not completely relate to missions, but I think it definitely does on some levels... I've been thinking a lot about doing things that dont make sense.  I've been reading in 1st Nephi and as I've been paying attention to how many things he and his family did that didn't make sense, the number has been astounding.

-killing someone to follow the Spirit?
-dressing up as someone and talking like someone you aren't
-going to back to Jerusalem how many times?
-fleeing their home and riches just to go out to the middle of nowhere (and on top of that they didn't really know where they would be going)

And thats just in the first few chapters!  These amazing people of the Lord, followed the promptings He gave them even when it didn't make sense.  It made me start to think how many things I do (that I'm prompted to do) that dont make sense.  Not really that many.  I consider myself pretty logical and if something doesn't make sense, I usually steer clear.  But I'm trying to realize that the miracles come when we blindly trust and do the crazy things the Spirit prompts us to do.  And its an amazing feeling.

Do you do crazy things that dont make sense when you feel prompted?

how exciting is this??

Sisters in the Mission Leadership Council

This announcement made me SO excited!   I know its inspired by the Lord and such a great opportunity for us as sisters to learn from and be able to serve other missionaries.

I'm back!!

Ok so I started this blog too long ago and got so excited to help get girls pumped about going on missions, but then life caught up to me...

But now that finals are done, I'm officially back and really want to get back to posting regularly!! So be excited :) Because I am.

I ran to Deseret Books the other day and I saw this book and it made me wish that there were more advice/prep books for sisters going on missions.  The book looks great by the way, I haven't read it, but I totally want to!

Well, like I said, be excited.  Hopefully I'll actually be more consistent now that I have time to think!

And because I LOVE pictures... and I LOVE Spain...
