Dear Family and Friends!
So, to explain the title, a few years ago my mom started a blog , and it was titled “Ive seen the hand of God today.”
This
week, every single day i saw how God was working in our area, in our
missions, in the hearts of these people, and in every part of something
that happened yesterday.
This
week, the Windows of heaven were opened and our diligence was worth it.
Despite how many people have rejected us, how many people who have shut
their door after weeks of being interested, and all the other trails we
faced, we continued being faithful and diligent, continued looking for
new ways to progress, new ways to help our numbers and our area to get
the help it so desperately needed… and the Lord opened the Windows of
heaven and poured out his countless blessings upon us. I
am so grateful! This week we found so many new people to teach! Who all
came to church! They are all so excited, and all began reading their
Book of Mormon! The Good Lord has softened the hearts of many people!
People were coming up to US in the street, asking if we could visit
them, Instead of vice versa! Miracles passed!!!
So
yesterday, we called one of our new investigators to tell her we were
outside of her house waiting with Claudia (member). Sarah (investigator)
said "Oh! But i am in a micro! (that is a type of bus here) I went to
go pick up my boyfriend so he could come too!"
We were incredibly happy!!!!! :):)
About
halfway through the sacrament meeting, Davi, (boyfriend) got up to go
find the bathroom. I felt a strange feeling as he walked out the
doors... I thought it was just because it has happened so many times
that the people come, and leave after 10 minutes, that he would do the
same. After about 15 minutes, and no return of Davi, I began to get a
little worried. I began praying he would come back... And i felt an
urgency to go find him. Just as i turned to my comp to tell her we
needed to go in search of Davi, a young member in the ward ran into the
chapel and took out ALL THE DOCTORS in our ward. There are about 6 trained medical professionals here in my ward, two of which are active.
then, Sarah turned to us and asked where Davi was. My companion
responded "maybe he couldn't find the bathroom!" Then just as i was
telling my comp we should go look for him, the brother sitting behind us
leaned up and said " The young man who was sitting her just passed out
in the patio... you might want to go check."
Davi
has epilepsy. And for the first time in 7 months he had an attack and
it just so happened to be at the church, and not when he was alone in
his apartment.
Sarah was inspired to invite Davi.
All the less active doctors in my ward, including a neurologist, were inspired to come that ONE Sunday.
The
stake secretary who usually doesn't come to our ward, and who works with
the ambulance, just so happened to come yesterday too. He called the
ambulance, and in two minutes it was there! usually they take about an
hour,( said the doctors.)
God knows what will happen in our lives! He prepares the way for us to receive all the help we need!
My
testimony of this was strengthened tenfold yesterday. I KNOW God
inspires people to be at the right place, at the right time, so that
others will be watched over and protected. I cant imagine what would
have happened if Davi had been in his house, alone, when all this
happened.
God is mindful of each and every one of us.
i know! i love you all! have a great week!
