This week we went on exchanges in beautiful Danshui and it was SO FUN! I've been there once before when I came to Taiwan the first time so it was really cool to see how its changed over the last few months. There, we got to see, eat (pictures below), and learn a lot!
Over the week a lot of new people and it's been way cool! I met a woman on the MRT (the train we take everywhere) and she was such a sweetie! I was a little freaked out when she opened my bag and put snacks in but she is honestly so awesome and it was nice to talk to her:) we also meet people from all over and it has been so cool to hear their stories. Along with these, we're continuing to meet with our friends and its been a really cool experience to get to know their sweet spirits.
This week especially, I'm learning so much about taking things one day at a time and it is wicked useful because I make so. many. mistakes (Chinese and otherwise). Yes it is important to learn from the past, but life is the very best when we're really living in the present.
And who helps us us find beauty in the now? Jesus. I believed in Him before I came here, but it wasn't until I needed to rely on Him that I truly appreciated His sacrifice. I'm still learning to do so now. He is in the big moments. He's walking with us in those times, but He is also there when we feel lost or confused. His Atonement is meant to be used daily and it is one that is everlasting.
I heard a quote from a book this week that said:
"We may believe IN Christ, but we don't often believe Christ. We believe that He is there and that He is our Savior, but we need to truly trust that He has the power and can help us face all of our challenges, whatever they may be."
I love you all and remember it's not always about the result, focus on the process❤
