| Time to eat....again! |
So
this week our initial investigator became teacher number two for us,
and we all love him so much. He and I get along so well. When he takes
me to another room for 1 on 1 work, we speak in Korean for a little bit,
but then I get him to tell me all about Korea and what to expect and it
gets me soo excited to get there! Even though I actually really like
the MTC, my freaking stomach does not. But that's the only down side.
I had a little bug this week, but I am already over it. It was spreading all around the MTC.
Elder Fleming and I have grown even closer this week. We have
been playing basketball in the mornings with some Vegas boys, and we have got some
chemistry! I love him, and our district is so fun as well. The people are awesome. One night in our room of four Elders, we stayed up almost until midnight
unintentionally. We just got caught up sharing stories and laughing so
hard! Some Elders actually came and knocked to tell us to cut it out. We are having a blast like all the time.

There has been so much studying to do--at least 7 to 8 hours of studying Korean a day! But the frustrating part is not
being able to study the gospel at a constant pace like the English
speakers get to do! Over the two weeks, though, I've sort of figured out how
to balance it best. I really have found such a love for searching the
scriptures and talks. I literally like shout
sometimes because I get so excited when I find a new principle I had
not seen before. I really did think I had a
legitimate love for the gospel before I arrived here, but now I realize
what it really means to LOVE this gospel!
Another
big thing for me has been prayer! I have never prayed so much in my
LIFE! Haha EVER! It is insane! I feel like I pray for anything and
everything and it has become fun! Literally like three times before bed
and I don't even count how much I pray in the daytime. But I really can
testify how much it helps me. I honestly can feel myself
coming closer to the Lord through constant communication with Him!
One
quick and cool experience this week came from a lesson last night
with Goodwin Ja May Neem! It was our first time teaching her thus far,
and we decided we weren't going to use any notes. All Korean. No Notes! I honestly surprised myself with how much I could say. We had a
legitimate message about Christ that we shared in this foreign language
that we have been struggling with mightily. It Is Tough! But I believe
through the Spirit we taught exactly what we needed to! I
really am loving this. And I hope you all know how much I love you as
well! Talk to you next week!
