So this week has been pretty eventful!
To
begin with, just need to share the tale of how Sister Jensen and I went
to the gas station this morning to get some quarters for our laundry
and the guy at the counter states "Y'all are just glowin' right now"! We
look at each other and then hear a wonderful black lady behind us state
loudly as she stocks up huge fried doughnuts "It's cause they got the
Lord in 'em"! Everyone at the gas station is smiling and nodding because
of the comment.
...
Welcome to my beloved Oklahoma. This is just all too common for people who have such a love for their Savior.
So
we were out with a member last night and we tried a former investigator
we found in the area book. This Hispanic guy answers (who from the
looks of it, was NOT the former). His eyes get huge and he exclaims "I
got on my knees to turn my life over to God just a few days ago. He sent
you"! At least that's what we got out of his little English. He then
gathered us around the dinner table with almost his entire family, and
none of them spoke English. We don't really know what happened, but
Sister Jensen and I were able to get through the Restoration with such
simple explanations but most importantly, the spirit was there and he
stated at the end "Hermanas, I might not understand much of what you
just told me, but I know that it is all true because of what I feel.
What must I do"? (This was at the end of the First Vision) Sister Jensen
and I didn't even blink. "Be baptized Miguel"! (that was his name)
He accepted a date..but we'll be giving them over to the REAL hermanas.
But BUT..what an incredible testimony of His heavenly father's awareness
of him! I know I can't fully grasp just what really happened last
night.
I know this work is true. I love you all! Sorry this is so short, but I'm REALLY out of time.
