Love

 

Good morning! I miss you guys. 💕

Sorry, I didn't email last week. I was at Silver Dollar City!!! It's an amusement park in the old west with way good roller coasters. This incredible family took us. I'll send lots of pictures. :) It was the funnest thing of my whole life! EXCEPT, the lesson we had that night. It was even better.. We were chilling outside with our friend Levi talking about families and how they can be together forever and the things we do to make them strong. And I was like, wow, this is why I'm here. I can't imagine anything making me happier than sharing what I love with people I love.

Speaking of people I love, I serve with SUCH incredible missionaries! We had some legendary pickleball matches this week. And we stressed about our lives together because we found out about transfers last night!!! Y'all. Crazy times. Sister Hess is LEAVING ME! She's just moving downstairs though and serving in Chesterfield. :) I'm getting a new missionary, Sister Newitt. I'm sure she's a legend. Pray for us that we'll have the time and capacity for all the important things we need to do in the next 6 weeks. 

I'm a little stressed about how everything will work out, but also very excited and at peace. The last couple weeks, I've been thinking a lot about my why. I think that why you do things is almost more important than what you do. My reason is love. I love the Lord SO much, and I love people. I think God's reason is love, too. In John 3:16, it says, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son." It was all out of love. It brings a lot of focus to my life that the message I have to share is the reason I'm sharing it.

 

I love you all!! Email me at liberty.johnson@missionary.org. Have the best week. :)

LOVE,

Sister Liberty Johnson

It's Good to be Home

  Missions are hard. You give your whole self every single day for a long time. You have to do scary things like talk to people you don't really know and have major changes in your life every 6 weeks and tedious things like create workshops plan. Yesterday, Sister Maxfield and I were both hangry and trying to plan a lesson and just started laughing at ourselves cause we were struggling so hard! But there are also times of complete, full joy that I can't even describe that makes everything else so worth it.  Cindy got baptized Saturday morning, and it was one of the most wonderful things I've ever been a part of. She's gone through a lot to get to where she is now and has a lot of hard things yet to come, but she is truly converted to Jesus Christ and cares more about following Him then anything else. There is such a light about her! After the baptism, she said she felt this weight lifted off her that she didn't even know was there. In church, she bore her testim...

Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone! I hope y'all had an incredible Christmas. I did. It was definitely weird not be home and for there to be no snow on Christmas, but this week was awesome. First, the funniest, strangest thing that I have ever experienced happened this week. On Christmas Eve, we were going around delivering Christmas cookies to some of our friends. About a month ago we met this dear old lady named Marcie, and we decided to take some cookies to her. Sister Johnson has incredibly good intentions, but she is also new to this whole driving in Harrison, AR thing and is terrible at directions. So, we go up to knock on the door, and this old man walks out. We ask if Marcie is there, and he looks really confused and says, "My wife?" We're like, yeah. So we go in, talk to this old guy we don't know. I'm confused at this point because I was pretty sure Marcie didn't have a husband. Then, this old lady (the guy's wife) comes in, and she is definitely  not  Marci...

Merry Christmas! (Almost)

  MERRY CHRISTMAS (almost)! ❄❄❄ What a beautiful week. The highlight by far was our lesson with Cindy. Aww, I LOVE her! It's kinda crazy we've only known each other for a month-- I'm sure we'll be friends for life. Sister Beasley was visiting for the day, and we taught Cindy the plan of salvation. We asked her what she thinks her purpose in life is, and she said it is to know God and help others know God. Wow. It's amazing how simple the God's plan is-- all we need to do is bring Christ into our life through faith, repentance, baptism, the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end, and we can do exactly that. I know God loves Cindy so much and wants her to live with Him forever. She wants that too. I asked if she wants to be baptized, and she said YES!!! WOOHOO!!! I am so excited for her.  I love celebrating Christ's birth this Christmas season. He is who makes second chances and knowing God and this whole plan possible.  Merry Christmas!! Have so much fun c...
