So, as always, the Lord blesses you
after you remain faithful during times of adversity. This week has been a real
blessing compared to the last couple weeks we have had. We were able to really
see some amazing miracles.
We had tracted into this one couple
and the wife was very interested. We have been teaching her pretty frequently. Although
she didn’t make it to church, it was great to find someone new that we could
begin teaching. She has just soaked up everything we say to her and so
hopefully we will be able to help her progress.
But the biggest miracle of the week
happened a couple days later. We were out walking around the town talking to
people and as we were almost back to our trailer to get a bite to eat this car
pulled over and a lady in her 20s and this guy with her start talking to us
from their car (miracle in itself that they were young!!!) and she said that
she was a member and was wanting to go back to church and was wondering where
to find it. And then after we talked a little more she said that her boyfriend
wanted to join the church and so we set up an appointment with them. It was
just amazing as we walked away and starting talking about what had just
happened - we were truly in the right place at the right time. If we would have
walked somewhere else or taken longer anywhere else during the day and hadn’t
been right there as they drove by we may have never have met them. It’s just
amazing how the Lord knows everything and He knows exactly how He needs things
to be done. That is why it is so important we listen to the promptings and be
obedient. We met with them the other day and he is being baptized March 14th! It’s
just crazy how the Lord can bless us.
It is coming to the end of our
transfer and it is just crazy how fast truly flies. Doing the Lord’s work just
makes everything go faster. I remember that a month used to seem like a long
time, but man it sure seems to fly by very quickly now and the people here tell
me to wait until I am their age and I am sure they are right! I am not sure
whether I will be here another transfer or if they will close the area down yet
or if I stay. But either way it will be good. I love the people here so much.
It’s just hard because now we are already saying goodbye to a lot of people
that we really like. It’s weird being in a ward where they leave you and not
the other way around.
We have lots of meetings this
upcoming week and will be driving up to Vegas on Thursday so we will be very
busy! I hope you all have a great week!
