Valentines Day

This week has gone by super fast! For Valentines day my companion and I visited a bunch of inactive members and heart attacked them! It was going super well and no body was the wiser... until one house! We were walking away around the back of their cars because they had a window when we heard the door open! We ducked down, hoping they wouldn't see us as we snuck over to our bikes... but to no avail. The Hermano saw us. But it was such a miracle because he ended up giving us his right number!! So we can set up a time to come and visit them! 
There was also a valentines day dinner and dance party in my ward and we got to go! They did some line dances... which was pretty much just walking or skipping so we got to line dance a little! It was super fun! 


This week I studied faith again. I just can't get enough, each time I study it I understand it more and I focus on different things. Faith is truly just soo powerful! This week I was really focused on the basics of faith. What really stood out to me this week was how faith comes from a desire to believe. That is why it is so important to have the right intentions- and why in missionary work we ask if they are interested because if they aren't- we can't help them. But it's so nice because to grow our faith we just need a desire to learn, a desire to progress. Also, true faith always moves its possessor to some form of action- which is a cool reason that faith is the first principle of the gospel! I definitely understand that a lot more! And faith comes by righteousness. So when we are keeping the commandments and being steadfast. We are growing our faith!
But I really liked Luke 16:10. "He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much." It doesn't matter how much responsibility we have, we always have the opportunity to show to our Heavenly Father how much we love him and be faithful! Are you faithful in the least of things too?


This is more of just a cool thought, but we were at a member dinner, and this hermana is really just so cool, she's so faithful and loves sharing her testimony but she was talking to us about crying and how it's good, and that there are only three reasons someone cries: repentance, gratitude, or humility. I just really liked that!


Lastly we had a relief society activity that we got to go to! It was called super sábado! And it was just a painting activity! But I painted a picture of the first visión! And it turned out pretty okay! 


My question for the week is: How can you better walk by faith and not by sight?
