Hola todos!
This week I found out I will be returning to PUERTO RICO tomorrow!! It is so crazy and exciting, tomorrow it will be exactly 5 meses since hurricane maria:) i have grown a huge LOVE for california, I LOVE what i have learned, and LOVE who i have met, i honestly can't imagine not having this time be a part of my mission.
okay, first i know it is so late to write! i am so sorry if i do not answer your email, today we have had a lot to do, so with the time i do have i just want to share my testimony and things i have learned here in california:) so far my mission has consisted of many NEVER HAVE I EVERS. haha like never have i ever been through a hurricane or slept on my mission presidents floor, or never have i ever eaten that, or been called that and so forth! haha i actually don't really know where this is going, but i guess as i look at everything that has happened, serving in 2 missions and everything, i can't imagine not having those never have i ever moments, becuase no matter how hard or sad they sometimes are, because when i left puerto rico, it truly was one the hardest things i have ever done, but i can't image it not having happened, because i have also NEVER felt so much love from everyone I met, and never felt so much love from my Heavenly Father, and especially growing an even stronger love for the gospel i teach that I KNOW IS TRUE WITH ALL MY HEART. okay quick story:
a few weeks after i arrived it was still just really hard, and i was it a rut. I remember praying one night, just thinking about all that had happenedd, and wondering why it all happened. it wasn't a long prayer, i honestly don't know it i even said that much, but as I sat there i suddenly felt everything i was feeling lifted away, and i felt peace! I remember feeling like my answer was to trust in god. and i felt a quiet assurance that it would all be okay, and i was:) I know that this gospel is true, and i know that heavenly father loves his children, guides his children and knows what is best for his children!
I love California, and i love PUerto Rico, and I love you all for being you!!! and thank you for all the prayers sent to puerto rico<3
con muchisimas amor, Hermana Zimmerman:)
