GOD IS TRULY A GOD OF MIRACLES!!
We found so so so many people!! English and Spanish!! What a week or miracles. What a week of love, joy, and true and lasting peace. There is NOOO where I'd rather be than in my home. Georgia is HOME! This is where I've come to know my Lord, Jesus Christ! This is where I've understood His doctrine! This is where I've felt His love unlike anything before. This is where I've been converted and changed for Life while helping so many people doing the same!
I'm grateful for this week and the rest of this transfer to help ALL PEOPLE COME UNTO CHRIST!! I've never felt more urgent! I can only thing of His precious children! I love them, so so much! They are needed in His Church! I'm so excited to share some experiences with these lovely friends!!
♡MIRACLES♡
° Tony Fero! Just a stud! He can't be baptized for a while because he needs to pay some restitution back to the world. He is a great man and comes every week. We will get him an assignment soon for the ward to help others. He truly is incredible! His questions are perfect and He just wants to know all truth. He is and loves it. We fasted with him and he paid his Tithing on Sunday!!
Areli and Manuel, Latino family that are so sweet. I got to say a couple things in Spanish. I felt the Spirit so strong talking to them and I loved it. The gospel is true no matter what language it's spoken in.
Orlando is doing amazing!! He loves the gospel and is excited and willing to make the changes needed in his life. Just a miracle as we had the chance to testify! He has been changed.
Carley's baptism was perfect!! She has been such a light to her family. We've been able to see them 3 times this week. She is working toward the temple! She is the sweetest!
We met a family from Angola, Africa!! They are the cutest. Nancy (the mom) then there’s Jeremias, Junior, and Jayden. We were visiting some friends and on our way down from the top floor the Spirit just HIT ME!! strong and I knew I needed to knock the door. It was so funny. We introduced ourselves and asked if she was Christian. She let us right in haha. We taught the restoration and the HOLY GHOST MANIFESTED HIMSELF TO THEM. I TESTFIED WITH EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING THAT JESUS LIVES! HE LOVES US! HE GAVE US HIS TRUTH JUST LIKE HE ALWAYS HAS THROUGH PROPHETS, AUTHORITY, AND THE FULLNESS OF HIS EVERLASTING GOSPEL. oh how grateful I am for that experience.
I know because I strive everyday to be pure even as He is and to grow grace by grace. To learn line upon line and to do the small and simple things, FULL HEARTEDLY, I see miracles. Sometimes I am the miracle! What a blessing to be angels to others.
I love 2 Nephi 32. Verse 2 and 3 teach us about what happens as we receive the Holy Ghost. As we receive greater power we are more worthy to have Him in our life. We can speak with the tongues of angels. I testify that we are His angels! I love this quote.
" God does notice us and He watches over us but it is usually through other people that he meets our needs."
We need to Hear Him! As we let God prevail in our lives. As we feast upon the words of Christ, Fast and Pray oft, and gather together oft we let Him into our lives. In turn He needs us to help others. As we act on spiritual promptings and impressions. We will be led and guided to DO WHAT HE NEEDS DONE AND TO SAY WHAT HE WANTS SAID!
We met another wonderful family. Leo and His kids. They are from Guatemala. We asked to come in and we were able to teach them. We said a prayer and it was powerful. The spirit enveloped the room.
They gave us a ton of referals to visit other people too.
As we went to visit these people. 2 other wonderful precious children were brought to our path. Kate was getting home from work at Walmart. side note. She's never at home. So we caught her right when she was walking in. As we spoke for the first time. We asked her about her life. About God's influence. She didn't believe in God. She just didn't see how. We asked her “do you hope there is a God?” She said I think I do. WE TESTIFED AGAIN OF HER DIVINE POTENTIAL AS A DAUGHTER OF GOD! Her countenance changed for looking exhausted to BRIGHT! THE SPIRIT BROUGHT TO HER REMEMBERANCE THE THINGS SHE HAS ALWAYS KNOWN TO BE TRUE. As we spoke we taught about our Savior and His Church and taught the Restoration. She was blown away that God loves us so much that He sent His son and His son brought us so much. She wants peace in her life and wants to make changes. She was beautiful!
As we again were about in this area. We met my newest and bestest friend Ty'eesha. SHE IS SO KIND! she's in her 20s. As we spoke and taught about our purpose as missionaries we testfied of The Restored Gospel. She was very grateful and lit up! Her mom Kay had met with missionaries and members in Missouri! What a wonderful miracle!!
Our wonderful friend Lauren is a friend of many members and even with another friend Camille we've been teaching. She DECIDED TO TAKE THE LESSONS. OUR LESSON IS NEXT MONDAY!! WE ARE SO PUMPED!! :)
I know that was a lot. I just am so happy and want to remember these things! I read a lot in the Book of Mormom this week. I'm trying to finish again before I go home. I'm in Alma 5,6,7. What such amazing chapters. Alma 5 has so much to disect. I love Alma as a missionary! He is the greatest example of a believer and follower of Christ! I want to receive Gifts just like He has.
I love my Heavenly Father! It's evident everyday that He loves me. He shows HIMSELF to me in so many ways, through tender mercies and miracles! I am a witness of His Son Jesus Christ and of His Church! I invite each of you to ponder on His love and His guidance in your life.
"REMEMBER, REMEMBER" the scriptures always teach us that.
- How will you remember Him today?
I remember Him and will be His forever! I testify of these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
♡ Love,
Elder Wold
HE LIVES!
