Week 2

Hey Everyone! This week has gone by so quick! Days here at the MTC feel like weeks, yet I am also learning the a week feels like a day, go figure. Well it has been a good week. Elder and Sister Oak came to the Tuesday night fireside. It was so cool! You can for sure feel the power of an apostle when you are in the same room, or even just while listening to their voices. WOHOO Confrencess this week!!!! 
Oh so this week we got MTC 'punked'. Do you remember Ben our investigator, well his real name is Brother Swenson, who just happens to be our other teacher! Yep completly exposed to the teacher the first week of class :)  Tuesday we found out that we only had one more lesson with him because he had to drop us due to a job he got. Well after the last lesson he came into our class room and explained that he was only acting as an investigator so that he could know more of how he could help us....Yep we got PUNKED! :) 
The german is slowly coming, I feel like I am not progressing as fast as need to hit the field in less then a month. But I am learing to rely more on the spirit as I teach which in the long run will mean more anyways. 
This week I had a really cool experinces. Me and another sister in my Zone, Sis. Thorton, decided to go on a night walk after class. IT WAS AMAZING! As I was looking up at the stars, I remembered why it was that I am here on a mission. I often hear people saw that they feel the spirit more here at the MTC then they have ever felt in their life...I think they need to come on a river trip and stay up with me and look at the stars at Big Bend. That night as I was looking at the sky I felt my Saviors love SO strongly. I know that He loves me and is watching out for me. I am so thankful for that knowledge. Another time I felt the spirit this week was on our sunday temple walk. I went behind the temple and up the south east hill where I was able to look at both the mountains as well as Utah Lake. It is hard not being able to see Gods handy work every day like I am use to, but the moments that I get are special! These are the moments that make the learning I am doing here at the MTC a little easier to handle. 
I truly do know that the work I have been called to do, is the work of God. I know that He is watching out for me, and knows the thoughts and feelings that I have been having. He has been caring enought to allow me those 'Nature Breaks' that seem to bring everything back into perspective. I KNOW that if we but turn to Him that eventuly, and on his time table, He will answer the questions that our in our heart. And I know that until He gives us the answers, that He gives us the strength to wait. I Often times feel His love, and can't wait to bring the joy of that feeling to those in Germany!
Until Next Week
