Double ingrown toenails & God ALWAYS provides

Hey y'all! So yours truly had surgery this week, yay! Both sides of both my big toenails are ingrown, so I had to get that fixed this week. I attached a picture of the worst one, but it's kinda disgusting, so don't look if you get queasy over that sort of thing. But yeah, this week the work was really hard because my feet were hurting me a bunch. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger though, and I'm not dead yet! (Although, I'm probably a great burden to my family;P (If anyone understood and laughed at that, I love you)). The great part about the work being harder is it becomes even more rewarding. The more pain I feel walking, the more joy I feel sitting down to teach a lesson haha.

On a different note, I want to talk about a saying me and my companion recite a lot: ''God ALWAYS provides". Whether you need a CD player, or two more people to talk to on a completely dead street, or just a little bit of joy, when it's His will and His work, He provides. Now, we all have needs in our lives, and I'm not saying we'll get what we need on our timetable (honestly, more often than not, it isn't), but as we follow God, I promise you all that He will provide. As stated in D&C 82:10 ''I, the Lord, am bound when ye do what I say'', and God can't lie.

Lastly, just so you guys know, the next two weeks my P-days are super weird so I most likely won't be able to write to y'all. Just remember that you all are amazing. I hope everyone has a great Christmas and an awesome start to the New Year. Just remember not to put Christ away with all the decorations:)
