Happy Mother's Day!

Frohe Mutter's Tag to all of the mom's out there reading this, and everywhere around the world, and also future mothers. Wow was it great to talk to my family. I am so thankful that Heavenly Father has been protecting them and taking care of them as I have been away. I will be forever grateful. This week was an interesting one!! I now know what it is like to be a Zone Leader or Distrikt Leader haha and sort of how a General Authority (okay not really to their level) feels when they have to give speech after speech and talk after talk, and I honestly want to know how they have time to do those things!! In the last week I have assignments given to me and I have had to wake up earlier than the normal 6:30 missionary routine! But one thing that I have learned recently is how important it is to study things out throughout the day involving conversations with people, and also in our own minds. But when all is said and done, to really prepare for something begins on our knees. When we have anything that is causing more stress than normal and you feel like you just can't get your point across, I promise you it begins with a humble action of kneeling and talking to Heavenly Father about it. I have a testimony of it and I found that out as I have been laid with splits to plan, talks to give, and lessons to teach. I can't do it without Heavenly Father and He is always right there to give us the answers. I am so grateful that He does :) Also something miraculous that happened this week was that Justine and David came to church!! As long as I have been here I have only seen one of the people we teach come one at a time, but yesterday they both came!! And our ward was amazing at saying hello and fellowshipping them. I love tender mercies and yesterday had a accumulation of them! I love the people we teach. I love them with my whole heart. It is going to really hard to say goodbye in a month.. I love teaching. I love teaching them. I love seeing them grow in faith and acting in faith. I love the gospel. I love Jesus Christ. And I love my Heavenly Father. I know He loves me, and He knows and loves you too, trust me :) Liebe, Sister Tuschling
