Week 13
"Strong, mighty, perfect understanding, a soul that did joy in the liberty and the freedom, heart did swell with Thanksgiving to God, and did labor exceeding for the safety and welfare of people." God has a plan for each one of us, I have been teaching this plan a lot haha but sometimes I forget that there is another person who knows this plan even better than me, Satan! Wow! That is why I liked these attributes of Captain Moroni in Alma 48. In this chapter, it talks about if all people were like unto Moroni, the devil would never have power over the hearts of men. Wow! I've got to start working on these attributes more!
Now for the events of my week, we had many firsts:
We had our first uber driver that was deaf. Crazy that neither Spanish nor English helped us out here.
My first baptism date to be canceled. But that's okay. When you can feel that a person just doesn't feel 100% ready, it's sad to have to change the date, but so great that we can help them build their testimony just a little more because it is such a big change.
I asked the guy at McDonald's if I could have a happy meal (cajita feliz, which is not a direct translation!) And he said with so much excitement "por supuesto!" Whoo! So I got my happy meal and a cool toy from eternal that I will watch in 15 months to understand who my toy is haha
I had a great exchange this week, spoke lots of Spanish, helped my comp organize some big mission Christmas plans, and finally our last miracle:
One of the newest people we are teaching came to church! She connected with so many members which was great because there are only so many to connect with. Later we had a lesson with her, and her lessons are always a little difficult because she doesn't talk. Well after teaching the third lesson, we tried to gage where she was at and all that she said was that she wanted to learn more. Well later that night we had another miracle when she messaged us saying, it's hard for me to ask questions, but I have some for you!! Yes! We could finally really see where she was at and how we could help her personally. We're thankful that the spirit was really working on her!
I hope everyone's hearts swell with Thanksgiving this week!
Mucho amor,
Hermana Warburton
