SPIRITUAL THOUGHT🤍
Here Am I; Send Me
"Heavenly Father can provide miracles when you simply offer what you have. When you say, “Here am I, send me,” Heavenly Father can take something small and simple and make it great!" 
Susan Porter

Wow I love this quote. She introduces this thought talking about the story of the 5 loaves of bread and the 2 fish. She explains how there is the boy who offers these things, giving all that he has, and then Jesus is able to provide the miracle of the thousands of people being fed! As I think of my own life...I usually look at my contribution like 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish but God doesn't ask that we feed the 5,000-He just asks that we give all that we have. He takes us as we are, He appreciates every small step, every effort, and He works miracles with them. So my question and invitation this week is: What are your 5 loaves and 2 fish you could give to the Lord this week so He can work miracles in your life?

🧶 splits (exchanges) in Jyväskylä this week with the lovely sister from Germany, Sister Voigt!

I mean, he did end up taking it with him🙂‍↕️
❤️ interviews with President and Sisar Lehtinen! Oh how I love them, they have had such an impact on me. I always feel so uplifted and seen after my interviews.

"Onneksi olkoon Airfryer!" 💯

 HAUKKUMINEN  It was super funny we got an airfryer at mission tour, our mission is in the process of getting them out to all the missionaries! They're super handy for making food fast which is such a blessing as a busy missionary BUT what was funny is that we had to carry this huge airfryer box all the way back home on public transport and stuff and someone said "(the title of this email) =Congratulations on the Airfryer!" It made me giggle.  PÄIVITYKSET  🔥 Mission Tour! aka the area president and his wife spoke with half of the missionaries in the mission and it was SO powerful. I had gone into "mission tour" wanting to know that the Lord was aware of me and the very first talk given by our lovely sister mission president (the wife of our mission president, she loves to say there is two mission presidents including herself haha I love her) talked about something I have been struggling with for a long time now. Soooo in case anyone was wondering...God is aware...

Hiya everyone, this is my mom. (trainer)  Her name is Sister Wynn, she's going home this week and I am going to miss her so much. She has been such an example to me, from day 1, of Christlike love and charity. I love you Wynn!  But in other news, transfers are in a week. A WEEK! I swear the transfers just feel faster and faster and before I know it I'm going to be back home-so wild to think about.  Yay for Finnish boxing-day and celebrating Christmas for 3 days! We have so many lovely members who are gonna take us in during the holiday, AND my comp and I did some fun christmas things for each other too. We also had a Christmas Conference and I got to sing some songs! (serious shoutout to Aimee and being my inspiration to sing My Grown Up Christmas List)  But with it being Christmas time I think it appropriate to share a special spiritual thought focusing on the greatest gift of them all: Our dear savior and friend, Jesus Christ.  This Child divine...
