dear family,
yesterday a miracle happened. i still can't believe it, even now, every time i think about it. we were biking yesterday, and it was starting to rain, and we were just biking like normal, coming down this little hill to a stoplight, and there were lots of cars waiting, and some trying to get over to turn. anywho, i biked around these cars to get up to the stoplight, and i look back, and sister lim had slipped and fallen. so when i got back to her she had gotten up already, but her knee was bleeding a little bit (seriously, me and sister lim fall all the time, we are back luck for each other) so when she fell, she fell to the ground, the bike slid out from under her, and she put her hand out to catch her fall, and the car right by her pulled up, and rolled right over her hand, her hand was out, and it rolled right over it. so i said, pretty much, bag the appointments we are going into the clinic. she said, no no its really fine, i I'm like whatever you are probably in shock something. but she could move it and said it wasn't painful or anything, so we kept going. but then down the road, i was thinking to myself, a car rolled over her had. a car rolled over her hand. so i made us stop again, and told her we were going in. but looking at her hand, no swelling at all, no pain, no mark, she could totally move it all around. so i asked her if she would bowl with it the next day, like we were planning, and she said, why not? so we continued on with our day. can you believe that? am i crazy to think that is a miracle? i mean, hundreds and hundreds of pounds, and nothing, not even a mark. all those little bones, and it rolled over her wrist, too. gosh. i don't know why, but Heavenly Father is watching out for us.
so even though we have hard times, and sometimes people ignore us when we talk to them, none of that really matters. we have a lot to work on with our missionary work, so many things I'm not good at when it comes to missionary work. but whatever, we just try and work and Heavenly Father looks out for us. its a good gospel, family. its funny, we teach the plan of salvation all the time, but you still can learn something new. I've been reading the old testament, do you remember when the Lord killed the first born of the Egyptians, and saved the first born of Israel? well, it talks about how all the first born had to give their lives to serving the Lord, and it makes sense, He saved their lives, so their lives really belong to Him. all of a sudden it just clicked for me, that is why we promise to always follow commandments, because through Christ our lives are saved and now our lives belong to Him. just a little personal insight, take it or leave it. i love you family!
