Motra Holt and I had an amazing
week! We had a lot of first lessons and we have high hopes that a few of
these people will become solid investigators that we can consistently
teach.Our one friend, E, is doing great. She's such an inspiration to
me. I would like to share something that she told us at the beginning
of a lesson the other day. A little background - E works with blind
people; many of whom are young adults in their 20's that were blinded
from war blasts in the late 90's. E walked into work the other day
and upon her arrival she stood their silently and offered a short prayer
before she started working. A few of the blind people noticed that E
had entered the room but wasn't talking, so they asked her what she was
doing. She responded that she was praying before she started working.
They pleaded her to pray for them to receive their vision back. E
readily agreed and offered a prayer with them. Wow, when she told me
that I felt the spirit so strongly. E is such a strong, faithful
example and a light to everyone around her!
Our
mission president has been having back problems so he had to fly out to
Switzerland for surgery last week. We did a mission fast for him and it
all went well, now he's coming back this week! Our mission president is
the coolest. He texts us a spiritual thought every morning and they are
so. good. There was one I wrote down in my journal the other day that I
really liked:
"'We should not assume that just
because something is unexplainable it is unexplainable.' - Neal A.
Maxwell. Dear Sisters and Elders I am so grateful for the love of my
Savior and for His wonderful Plan of Salvation. I sure don't know the
answers to every question or why things happen the way that they do, but
I know of his love and I trust him that his promise is true when he
said 'Yea, verily I say unto you, in that day when the Lord shall come,
He shall reveal all things - things which have passed, and hidden things
which no man knew, things of the Earth, by which it was made, and the
purpose and the end thereof - things most precious, things that are
above, and things that are beneath, things that are in the Earth, and
upon the Earth, and in Heaven.' D&C 101: 32-34"
I
would like to testify that I know these things are true! We don't need
to worry and stress about everything because the purpose of our
hardships, trials, everything, will be revealed to us. There is a
purpose to everything under the Heaven! So, as my mom has always told
me... let Go and let God!
