A day in the life of an Elder

This week went great!!

I am seeing many miracles thanks to the Lords hand in the work. The other day I got the prompting to test my faith. While I was telling Heavenly Father about the day the Spirit hit me and an idea came to my mind. Every night we plan out our day and schedule the people that we need to see that day. The Idea that came to me was to step out the door Saturday morning and walk and talk to everyone and not come home until we teach one of Heavenly Father's children and set up a time to teach them more. So we planned it in and put our hopes and prayers on the Lord. Mind you we can go a whole day without anything close to a lead on teaching someone new. In my mind I knew that the Lord would put that person in our path sometime in the day but I figured that it would take a while, like the whole day. Lo and behold the fourth person we talked to is a lady named Heather. We walked up to her as she was bar-b-queing. We started talking about the Restored Gospel and she invited us to sit and tell her more. So we did and followed the Spirit as He gave us the words to speak. Close to the end of our conversation we started talking about Heavenly Father and how that is personally one of my favorite titles (Heavenly Father) because that shows His true nature. He is our Father. Suddenly I saw it click within her. She mentioned to us how she was reading the words of Christ as he prays to Our Father and how He speaks to His Father. Well long story short we're going back this week to teach more. I am grateful for those experiences. All glory to our God. Well I'm doing well thanks for everything. I need new slacks so I'm going to hit up Ross probably today plus before I get transfered I need to give some stuff to Alexis So i don't have to ship it or take it home with me when the time comes. Love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 peace
