Can I just say how
awesome the weather has been out here!! It hit 70 degrees a couple of times this
week! We were driving with the windows rolled down and everything! It is weird preparing for Christmas when
it is this kind of weather but we will take it!
This week Elder Wilkins and I set a goal of
listening to promptings and then
acting on them. On Tuesday night a couple of our plans fell through so we were looking through some of our back up
plans to see who we should go see.
We both felt like we needed to go stop by an investigator that we haven't been able to get in
contact with for quite some time.
When we got to her house we saw a lady down the street sitting on her porch so we decided to go and
talk to her. We showed her the new
Christmas video and she really liked it! She said to come
over again so we could see her again! After that conversation it was 8:40 and we still hadn't tried the investigator
we had planned to go and see. It
was getting late and we had a little bit of a drive back but we felt like we needed to try her! When we
knocked on her door she was happy
to see us. She said she has been praying and us coming over was an answer to her prayers. She had been going
through some pretty hard times and
she said she felt so much better when we came over. We set up an appointment with her for the next
day and she told us that we better
make sure to be there haha. That is one of the greatest feelings as a missionary. I love when you and
your companion feel prompted to do
something and when you act on that prompting you understand why! I know God loves every single one of
us. If we can humble ourselves and
turn our will over to His, we will be able live our lives to the fullest and accomplish all the things
he has in store for us. I love
Alma 5:14 "Have you received his image in your countenance?" When people look at us do they see
a light? As we strive to do the
best we can and humble ourselves, we can truly receive his image in our countenances and others will recognize
that. Thank you for all he support!
