There are so many comments the missionaries make that teach me...and that make me just love them.  A few days ago one of our missionaries who has been feeling really sick called to talk to me.  He talked about how his companion had the same thing a few weeks before and that he thought it was all in his head.  So he kept telling him that he had "woosititis" (that he was a wous-or wuss-I dont really know how to spell it!)  "Now" he said "I have woosititis".  We talked about what was going on and I made some suggestions on his diet and also an antacid.  We talked yesterday and he was feeling a lot better.  Then with great maturity he said "Sister Palmer, that antacid helped-thank you for suggesting it, but I also have really evaluated my attitude.  It has been a very difficult few weeks and I realized I was letting it get me down.  I have really worked on changing my attitude and it has made all the difference in how I feel emotionally, spiritually and phyisically."  How can I not just love them-they are so good, humble and honest.

I also talked to one of our new missionaries after he had been here about ten days. 
As I asked how he has been doing and how he feels about missionary life he said "this is by far the hardest thing I have ever done.  I am exhausted, I have been rejected, I have every reason to be discouraged...etc.etc.  BUT-Sister Palmer, I have never felt the spirit so often and so strong in my whole life.  I have really learned what the spirit is and feel the strength and guidance that He gives.
