So we worked our booties off this week and it paid off! We
are finding more investigators and I'm happy :) He have many baptismal dates set
up for each week this month and going into February. We are praying our brains
out to see everyone of them happen! Prays would be gratefully appreciated!
Cool experience that happened this week: we have been with
this one investigator for forever! and she has listened to the missionaries for
4 Years! That's insane. We have been working with her and working with her and
finally we gave up because the results were always the same. But then we
thought yesterday...lets go visit her! We're going to baptize her this
transfer! So we went last night and it started off the same...she just does not
have faith. Then she started telling us and opening up to us about her faith
and giving us examples of how she feels. She started off giving an example and
I was praying my guts out to help her understand faith more in her own example.
She gave us her example and then the words just came to me and I went on with
her example and explained more about faith. it was incredible. I would not have
thought about those things but the Spirit was with us! Then finally she started
telling us everything. She said that one time she prayed so hard because she got super
sick and she would wake up in the night and just start praying to receive help and
she said as I prayed, I got worse. My sickness was getting worse so I just lost
all my faith.
While in the lesson I was thinking well darn what do we say
to that...haha. But then she said that all these people started coming to her
house and helping her out and then it clicked. So we told her that the Lord
isn't always going to just heal you automatically, but he sends people lots of
time to help. When you got even more sick maybe it was a trail of your faith
even more! But we don't always receive the answer that we think we will get or
want. It comes in so many different ways.
When we said that stuff she
just stared at us...like wow..I really did receive my answer all this time and
never noticed it..I'm SO happy I could scream! Finally! Anyways, we are going to
visit her this week and hopefully the next week she can be baptized! Saweet!
Things are going great and I'm super happy!
Hope you all had a great new years!
