Oh my goodness this week was absolutely amazing. I have been able to feel my Saviors love so strong. I have had so many ups but I also had my fill of downs. But the blessings of a mission still surprise me every single day.
The miracles of the week have been absolutely amazing. I was able to have the opportunity to teach my "investigator" Ane three times this week. The first time was good and the spirit was there, but Elder Barton and I were just going through the motions and weren't really into the lesson as we should've been. When we taught her the second time we had to get our lesson together in a very short amount of time. We were stressed and quite agitated that we had to get a lesson together in that amount of time. When we went into the lesson I had prayed so hard that we would have the spirit to be with us. We went in and she looked at us and I immediately knew this lesson was going to be awesome. We went in and taught her about prophets and how they are still on this earth today and how they receive revelation in today's world. Elder Barton and I were both able to teach her without going from script.
WE TAUGHT HER BY OURSELVES!!!!!! We made sentences on the spot we made commitments! The spirit was so strong and I couldn't help but jump for joy after we got out of the lesson. She is now praying about baptism. And we are teaching her why she needs to be baptized again. She was baptized in the Catholic church and was baptized in there.
Oh this work is amazing. Even if it's just teaching my teacher. I also had the opportunity to hear from Neil L. Anderson on Tuesday. He gave an amazing devotional about how a mission isn't complex but it's not easy. The message was so amazing. I loved hearing his testimony, and how he constantly used how he witnesses of our Savior. I loved it.
This week has been amazing! Thank you all for the love and support you send me. Even by reading this I feel the love and spirit you provide. You are all amazing and I love you all!
