1% Better

Because I don't have a lot of time today, here are some of the times I saw God's hand this week!

1. Beautiful nature. We did our lazy p-day hike before it started to get pretty snowy up in the mountains, and I am so grateful for nature and God's creations. 
2. Young Women Painting Activity success! With a small branch, when we put on an activity we are lucky if anyone shows up. This week though, we had 3 members and a friend show up to our painting activity. We painted some BOMs and had a great little discussion with our friend about it.
3. Cute Cafe lady. While walking home late one day, we saw a cute little Cafe right near our house that had just opened up and was having a little opening day celebration. We decided to stop by and made quick friends with the lady running the shop! We can't wait to go back 
4. Google Drive miracle find. While searching for something random in our Google drive we came across a GOLDEN video that we are going to be posting soon :)
5. Best burgers. We had some really good burgers this week. Enough said.
6. Being in media, we are behind the scenes and don't get to see a lot of immediate success. But I love hearing when other missionaries tell us the most amazing miracles and stories they have from people we sent them as referrals. One companion of elders has set up almost 5 lessons everyday with referrals that have came from our media platforms and ads.

One of my favorite talks from conference was "one percent better" by elder Michael A. Dunn. 
He talks about even the smallest of changes and efforts can make a drastic difference on our lives. As we change even by 1 percent at a time, we can gradually improve and become better. It is hard sometimes to be overwhelmed with lots of things we can change/do better, but we can focus on one thing and become better by one percent better everyday, becoming more like our Savior.  

Choose something this week to be 1% better at.
