We baptized Tomas On Saturday and he is
one beautiful son of god it was a way cool experience that was a blessing to be
a part of. It goes to show that no matter what you have gone through in your
life you can do anything with the Lords help and I know that to be true with
every fiber of me haha.
Our ward is super weird not going to
lie it’s kind of like I’m in a crazy foreign land or something like that. It is
really small and the lights make it seem like I’m in prison but the people are
all super nice and amazing we had dinner at someone’s house the other night he
is the coolest guy in the entire world I loved it God bless America
So I said I would tell you about my
homeless friend idk if I already did but he got an apt now so I wanted to share
that with you too. We first met him and he had nowhere to live hadn’t eaten in
days and he looked like he was about to die and he said he needed our help so
the Lord was there to pick him up. We said that if we prayed and he truly had
the faith that the Lord would help him that he would make it through these hard
times and then we parted ways. Later that day he was walking buy this restaurant
and this guy was like hey I feel like I need to feed you for some reason I need
to. You can come here every day and I will give you a meal. Blessing number 1
from praying. Then later he was walking down the street and all of these cop
cars came up to him and were like get in get in. so he was like okay and he got
in the car and they were like you murdered this guy and strangled his
girlfriend an hour ago and we are taking you to jail for the rest of your life
there is no way you are getting off for this we never make a mistake. so they
pull up to the girl who he supposedly strangled and she said that that was him
and they started to take him to the police station and they started filling out
the report and at this time my friend was in tears and he PRAYED that the lord
would help him and said that he had the faith. Then the lady doing the report
right after he finished said, “wait a minute.... you don’t have black eye brows”
and he was like I know (he’s Bald). Then she was like you’re not the guy.....
and he was like I know! and then the cop was like here is ten bucks don’t tell
anyone about this and they shoved him on the side of the road... he found us
later that week and told us everything and how he wants to meet with us and how
he knows God is there and now we are meeting with him and he got a job at that
place that was feeding him and he has a place to stay and he knows it all
because of the Lord.
Ya it was a little scary that when he
was telling us this there was a murderer loose right by us but we still were overjoyed
and I am here to say God answers prayers so everyone pray and have faith like Alma
when he prays to be loosed from his chains then he rips them out of the wall
and the whole building collapses it is awesome!
Okay, I love you all, be safe, be
strong. Life is hard I know it but we must carry on!
