| It's getting cold in Idaho!! |
Hello everyone!!!
So to explain my subject.... It's cold here :D
That being said, I am very blessed with a warm car that we drive around in!
My companion and I were able to witness so many miracles this week! My companion has taught me that they more you get to know someone the more you love them and man is she right! The more I am here in Salmon getting to know everyone, it is amazing the love I feel for them! There are so many people in this world who are hurting and they just need to talk to someone and feel Christ's love for them. I am so grateful for this time of year and how everyone wants to serve others.
I know that God hears and answers our prayers. So we have been working with this family since before I even came to Idaho and their baptism date was forDecember 16th. We had a lesson with them last week on Wednesday and they told us that they would have to move their baptism for the 30th because the father would have to work on weekends. (Someone had quit their job and he would have to cover until they hired someone else) We were all a bit bummed out because we all know how ready they are to be baptized, so Sister Gaston and I started to pray that they would be able to find someone to be hired so he does not have to work on weekends again. On Friday, we received an amazing text that they were able to get baptized on the 16th again!!! We were so excited and we later found out that they were able to hire someone else! Heavenly Father answers our prayers!
Ok so something funny that happens here when we ask people for referrals. So if people do not let us share a message with them we try to always ask them for someone else we might be able to teach and it goes pretty much like this. (And dad you can decide if you want to include this in the blog haha)
Missionary: "Do you know of anyone who may be needing a message about Jesus Christ in their life right now?"
Random Person: Umm well I know the person a few doors down goes to your church
Missionary: ..................... Ok thank you!
What missionary is thinking: They already found Jesus!!!!!!
Another amazing miracle we had this week was with one of our recent converts who is 12. So we went over to his house and he had invited two of his friends to come and listen to the lesson as well! He was so excited to answer the questions that we asked and show his friends all that he had been learning this past two months. He is an amazing young man and is going to make an amazing missionary someday!
So it was pretty cool because one night Sister Gaston was praying that we would be the answer to someones prayers and it happened! We also pray every day before we leave to have the Holy Ghost with us to lead us and guide us. Well we decided to go see one of our investigators that we had not seen in a little bit and just visited with her for like 10 mins. Anyways we came back a few days later and she told us that about 15 min before we came she was praying that God would help her in her life because she feels like she is in a rut and then we came to her door! It was amazing! I am glad that God trusts Sister Gaston and I to do his work!
I want to end with one of my favorite scriptures and we read it this week!
21 And now as I said concerning faith—faith is not to have a perfect knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true.
If any of you have questions about anything, ask God and have faith! Well I hope that all of you have an amazing week! I love you all so much!
Love,
Sister Lacey
