My dear family and friends!
The work is continuing and the weather is cooling down :) Which are both huge blessings.
This past week was great! We met lots of new people. I think looking back on my mission I have always seen so many grand miracles when we have members with us. Its when we find the most people and see the most miracles. Im a strong believer that when we have a member, God has a miracle that he is about to surprise us with because ive noticed that God really likes to help member's faith and testimony grow by showing them these little miracles when they are out with us. For example, the other night we had a member coming out with us to a visit for the last hour of a day, the visit fired and we asked the member if she would mind accompanying us as we contacted. she was more than happy to be with us. We offered a prayer before we started to let the Lord know where we were going to be contacting. I was praying and specifically asked for him to guide us to at least ONE person who had a DESIRE to know more. As we were wrapping up our contacting out in a small nearby pueblo we got on the bus to head home. The bus driver was super friendly and we started a conversation with him. Long story short. He was interested. He had questions because he said whenever one of "us" get on the bus he notices that we are happy. he said we have something special in our eyes and that that sparks some curiosity in him. We ended up talking to him the whole way to the members stop where right before she got off I heard her whisper to herself, "wow, la oracion de la misionera fue contestada" or in english, the missionaries prayer was answered... I know that that member already has a very strong testimony but i know that somehow that little prayer and contact helped her testimony grow. I love the little miracles that occur all around me all the time! God is a God of miracles. He lives and miracles exist. and one of my favorite quotes, "Coincidenences are just small miracles where God chooses to be anonymous" They are all around us, we almost always miss them. but oh life is so much prettier when we search for them in our daily lives. I can promise you that if you search, you will be surprised. Count your blessings... and most of those are miracles inthemselves.
I love you all and consider all of you great miracles in MY life.
love, Hermana Hair
