Week 42!!

HEJJJJJ <3 

Life is wild and crazy all the time. My brain has been going a a million miles per hour since last Monday, buckle up

To start, I AM LEAVING GUBBÄNGEN!! 8 months of memories with people who really have become like family, experiencing every season, and coming closer to my Savior Jesus Christ. I sure do love Gubbängen. 

I'm headed to Jakobsberg!! It's just about 40 minutes north, so I'm still in the same stake and district... gubbängen will always be a part of me haha!! 

ANYWAYS, so many cool miracles happened this week, I wish I could send them all. 

The scripture from d&c 123 touched my heart this week:

"Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed."

There were a few moments where we had to choose to do everything we could with joy.

As we got off the train and said goodbye to the people we were talking too, another man noticed up and came up. Saying that he hasn't seen the sister missionaries in years. He had lost contact with the church but wanted to come back. What a tender mercy it was he saw us. 

I looked at the clock and saw that we had like 2 minutes to find our bus, which we had no idea where it was, but I knew we were perfectly placed to meet this man, and we kept talking. 

So, with a prayer in my heart, I bore a simple testimony, got his contact info, and then we sprinted to find the bus. We stood outside the station, running to every corner, trying to find the bus with no luck :( none of the stations even had the number of the bus we were looking for. I could feel the stressed energy, we could NOT be late to this appointment haha. 

And then, like a movie, we looked down at our phones, looked up 2 seconds later, and the bus was stopped right on front of us. Pulled into a stop it wasn't supposed to. 

God's hand was revealed to me then, and multiple other times this week. He lives and governs the details of our life. I am so thankful for Him.
