Do you really want to know what the difference between you and me is? There is only one difference between us and if we both realize that then we will be fine... The ONLY difference between me and you, in that we are DIFFERENT!!! Haha, bet you didn't see that one coming :P
Being on a mission you are put with different companions, kinda randomly, with lots of heavenly intervention. :) There are sisters out here from all walks of life; some who seem to have never made a mistake in their lives, some who seem to have made every mistake in the book. Some who come from very wealthy families, some who never got new clothes for school. Some who are an only child, some who have 12 brothers and sisters. Some who think they are better than everyone, and some who wish they could catch up to anyone.
We all are so different, we all have different goals in life, we all learn differently, we all handle situations differently, BUT we are all daughters of our Heavenly Father and we all have one goal that is the same: We want to invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored Gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and his Atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the Gift of the holy Ghost, and enduring to the end.
Sometimes what that statement says is the only thing that helps us get through every day. Helps us have love for one another and helps us remember our call. We are missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and it is such a great blessing!!
I'm so grateful to have this learning opportunity both about the Gospel and about life. And no matter how hard it gets sometimes, the Gospel is what makes us happy. The Gospel is what can make us ONE!
I remember seeing some of the sisters in the picture come through the MTC.
