Heather is
doing Amazing!! Our lesson on the Gospel of Jesus Christ went very well.. she has
been praying and reading and feels like this is what she needs. She's so humble
and has real intent.. We asked her why she wants to be baptized and she told us
that she just wants to feel closer to God and start fresh and put her old life
behind her.. she feels like this is what is best for her family. She is such a
special person and her family is very prepared! We have committed her to be
baptized on February 21st and she is determined to prepare for that date! We're
hoping to include Max and Madeline in this next lesson, so that they too can
prepare to be baptized as a family. The ward outreach has been amazing! We were
talking to her friend, Sister Peterson, who will be moving. Something that
really touched me that sister Peterson said was that Heather was the LAST
person and the last of her friends she thought would be interested in the
gospel.. we talked a bit about how, we must never assume who will and who will
not accept the gospel. We have to share with every one and give them the
opportunity to accept it. The gospel is for everyone!
We sang in
sacrament meeting yesterday, so we invited every one! The Gomez family came
this week, which was a blessing because it's been a little while :) and our
dear Sister Knight came.. It made my week! She is the less-active that we have
been working with and she hasn't been in a looong time, so that was a huge
miracle! The meeting was amazing and I hope and pray that she felt the spirit
touch her heart and she will have a desire to continue to come!
I'm so
grateful for the opportunity I have to serve the Lord and to communicate with
him each day. I've never prayed so much in my life.. and I'm so, so grateful
for the opportunity I have to ask Heavenly Father for help! There is so much power in prayer and I could
not do this work without his divine aid! I know that there is power in praying
for our goals and praying to find those who are elect! It works.. Maybe not in
the way we expect, but he gives us what we need. He knows best!
