With the Lord all things are possible

So the computer had a misfunction and said I didnt have any time left when I actually did, I was wondering why the time went soooo fast haha

But anyways this week I learned a lot of great things and really had some powerful faith building experiences, including during the middle of a lesson feeling the prompting to have us all kneel down and say a prayer, and THEN I realized we never said a kneeling prayer with her, and so we did and it was just really a powerful moment I just felt the spirit SO strong without a doubt in my mind I know the Spirit was testifying strongly in all our hearts the truth of our message it was really neat.

It is really interesting with everything we do that we absolutely need help from the Lord, that with him everything is possible for those that believe (Mark 9:23) that is something that Im definitely praying for (meaning that Im just doing my very best to trust in the Lord and that he is guiding this work)
Something that my companion shared with me during this week was that when we are sharing a message with someone and feel the spirit really strong, we can tell them during this moment that the feeling THey are  feeling is the spirit and that we know they are feeling the spirit because we are too. That was really interesting because after this we had 2 lessons where we testified, In the moment, that we knew Luan/Aline was feeling the spirit and its really cool the way the spirit is more powerfully testifying to our hearts in the moment that we are testifying of the reality of the resposta (response/answer) they are getting.
Something cool is that sometimes I think a word in portuguese is explains a situation better then the same word in english. (Im prefering portuguese to english).

its really neat on my mission having experiences where I AM given the opportunity to choose to do whats right regardless of what others may think.
That really its more important (Bem Mais importante) to do what we feel is right in the Sight of the Lord, to do what would make Him happy and pleased with us.
Something I read this week in preach my gospel that was really cool was that Because God is our loving Heavenly Father he wants us to be happy, but more than that he Also wants us to succeed. I feel like being on a mission has made me ponder a lot about the word "success" and I really do know that God wants us to succeed and he has given us So many things to help us succeed.
(the scriptures, the Holy Ghost, A prophet, Church) 

Well this week Im just superly superly grateful for my companion, It really makes a difference having a really steller companion I think :) 
Because for me whats most important to me is following the Lords will and doing everything we can to share the Gospel. And so its awesome having a companion who has the equal desire.
Im just really grateful I was really praying hard for a companion full of excitement for misisonary work and Sister Maia definitely is.
Its great :)
