This
week most definitely was a week.
So
this week we biked all day, every day and I was curious to see how much we
biked. So I started counting it out on the map when we got home from work every
lunch and dinner break haha. I was pretty surprised. We biked 364 miles this week,
that might not seem like a lot, but just picture that in slacks, a tie and a
back pack with 20,000 Book of Mormons in it haha. It was awesome and add onto that
it never got below 100 degrees. People are starting to feel sympathy for us
once again which is such a blessing. I have started to pull out the scripture
in Matthew about giving the Lord’s servants even a cup of water will bless them
for the eternities haha. They seem to get a kick out of it :)
Life
is fun. So this week we saw a miracle in broad day light. So our investigator I
have been talking about lately, Cindy, was down this week. She literally disappeared
off the face of the earth. She said she would be at our appointment on Wednesday and
she does not have any family or friends in town, or a phone, or a car, so she
could not go anywhere! But when we went by the house was black and her beloved
cat Monsieur was outside and that is not a good sign. We automatically assumed
that she was dead, so we started freaking out checking to see if her house
smelled. We checked like 5 times in two days, then we finally knocked and she
answered and she had been deathly ill with a virus all week and she was bed ridden
and she could barely move.
So
we asked her if she would like a priesthood blessing, and explained it is the
same power restored to the earth that Jesus Christ used to heal the sick. She
gladly accepted and we said it was all according to her faith. I was blessed to
give her the blessing, I have a strong testimony that the priesthood is back on
the earth and that God can do anything. I laid my hands upon her head and consecrated
the oil. Then gave her a blessing. The Lord prompted me to say she will be
healed immediately. Right after we finished the blessing, she stood right up
and started crying and thanking the Lord for making her well. Not gonna lie, I
was a little freaked out, but it was a blessing to see the power of God work
through me and be able to feel His love for His child… enough to help her
through this small bump in her life. God cares about all of us individually and
with everything that He is. I know this. I have felt His love.
Life
rocks. I love you guys. If you need anything write me "I’ll be there for
you”.
