May 7, 2018

So there was a lot that has happened this past week like usual. We are now teaching this wonderful older man named Hector. He's so great whenever we teach him something that the spirit tells him is true he just says wow that is wonderful or that is just awesome. He breaks my heart :) He also told us that he plants a garden for the Lord and all the little flowers. Don't you just love him too :) 

I really just wanted to take some time to tell you of some thought I have been having recently as well as something our Branch President shared in one of our recent baptisms

Mark 14:41

It is enough. 

Sometimes we get overwhelmed with the world and it's commotion. Maybe we don't think we can handle our callings we have received. Maybe we just don't think we are good enough. Maybe we think: I can't change, it's too hard. How could He forgive me and what I have done? My sins are too grievous and deep. I'm not worth it. 

Let me share something that really hit my soul.

After the Savior had suffer in Gethsemane, coming back and finding his apostles asleep 3 different times. After asking his senior apostle cans't thou watch one hour? He gives this statement:

It is enough. 

I promise that His sacrifice is enough. What He has done is enough for you, no matter what you have done or even think you have done. 

It is enough. 

He is FULL of grace and truth. His unlimited power is available to YOU! So when you think you can't keep going, maybe you have even stopped going. You are so completely exhausted, you think all is lost just remember: It is enough. 

If you still have questions or seem to think it isn't I would like to share a verse from the Book of Mormon 
Jacob 5:41 

And it came to pass that the Lord of the vineyard wept and said unto the servant: What could I have done more for my vineyard? 

So when you feel that His sacrifice is not enough for you and your circumstances I invite you to ask a question:

What more could He have done? 

I promise that He is enough and what He has done is enough, in the words of Elder Utchdorf: Always remember YOU MATTER TO HIM.

I love y'all and hope you just have a fantastic week! Remember HIM :)
