Im just gonna trust in it and see what happens

hey hey hey!!! all you homies out there :) whats crack a lackin? shakin bakin? hows the life?
Things here--good. HOT. HUMIDDDDDDDD.... but good. weve had a car temporarily in our area so that means---air conditioning :) enjoy it while it lasts right? :)
This week has been pretty much the same as last week. A lot of not getting to do much work. BUT i went to the doctor yesterday and he told me one more week and then he'll be cuttin out those stiches! yipee!! he actually said that my healing process is faster than usual (fancy that eh? priesthood blessings do wonders) And so only one more week left with this boot on. and then as for the shoes idk...itll be fun none the less. and I do have to say that I am missing the bike tremendously. I love riding it and I really have missed it.
Today was an awesome pday! we went to the temple this morning and man oh man. one word. peace. what peace. I mean I may not have crazy strong spiritual experiances every time I go but I just feel so at peace. That my Heavenly Father loves me and is aware of me. there is such a closeness that I feel with my father and the plan that he has for me that I can not even explain. Then we went over to the Muesum of Science and Industry. SO COOL. There is really so much to see in those muesums that we are planning to go back next week. Just amazing. There is seriously SO MUCH TO DO HERE IN THE CITY! :) I wanna take it all in and I just hate to say but there is just plainly not enough time.
So I am proud to announce that I will be finishing the Libro De Mormon el proximo semana :) Seriously I know that the only reason that I can speak as much spainish and understand as much as I do now because of the Lord. No way would I be able to do any of this without him. no way at all. he is everything and I am finishing the LDM right in time for my 9 month mark! can you believe that?! half way done already?! gahhhhhhh My departure date is as of now scheduled for March 29/30 2012. And these weeks being a gimp and not being able to work to the ability that I know that I can-I have really been learning that you know the lord has a plan and sometimes he does things that may seem funny or not make to sense to us now or in the moment but later on well look back and see why those things happened the way they did. and I think that will be the same for this whole surgery with my foot. God has a plan and Im just gonna trust in it and see what happens. And it may sound silly but like seriously other missionaries might be able to testify to what i say next but like 1 week in missionary time is seriously like 2 days and yet like 4 months at the same time and so this whole surgery thing I really feel that I have been out for like a month and i cannot even begin to descirbe how ready I am to head out and hit the pavement riding! :) get me on the bike!!
One things that has happened this week is that we are preparing Marcelino for baptism. He has been an investigator since August when missionaries who were heading home from their missions in Mexico sat by him on the plane and started talking to him about the gospel...and hes takin the steps that he needs to enter those clean and pure waters of baptism! :) He has an awesome testimony in the Book of mormon and all that it contains and has such an ability to relate the scriptures to him that I love!
Me encanta este obra y nada puede replacer los experiencias aqui en la obra del señor. estoy agradecido a mi padre por este oportunidad de servir el. Se que Jose Smith fue en realidad un profeta de Dios y a traves el Dios restauró su evangelio aqui en la tierra otra vez. Y tenemos un profeta viviente, Tomás S. Monson, y el es un hombre de Dios. Me encata los escrituras. Son los palabras de Dios y son para nosotros. Gracias por su apoyo y amor a mi cuando estoy aqui in Chicago!
Paz y Amor,
Su Hermana, Hermana Maughan!
