NICE TRIP PICS!
Man... All i have to say is that I feel when I look at Bubs that I'm
looking at Carsen and when i look at Doctor Drey that I'm looking in the
stinkin mirror.. what in the world is going on haha? what is in the
water there in K Town? Steroids yeah? THEY ARE
HUGE. haha so funny! I just got some good laughs at these guys!
This week was quite the week. I'm not going to lie! It was pretty
darn great! We have seen some wonderful miracles and have just seen
great success on the Lords part. Ive never seen so many blessings at
once in my mission. THE LORD IS HASTENING HIS WORK.
I am so grateful to be one of His servants at this time.
I think the biggest miracle was seeing this family we have been
teaching for a while, come to church. This is a Venezuelan family that
is AWESOME. I love them so much. They came and they just loved primary!
The kids are really what are going to make this
all work out. They are so stinking cool and really are receptive to the
Spirit! When they just showed up, EVEN WHEN, they said they weren't, I
thought i was going to die.. First of hunger (because we were fasting)
but second of just shock! ha ha it was SO awesome.
There is no doubt to me, that fasting really works. One cool experience,
was that President and Sister Scott were at the church and we were with
just the mom, and we taught a lesson with Sister Scott! Now, I'm not
just saying this.. but she is like the most
spiritual lady ever! The Spirit was SO strong and really helped Jahy to
feel that this is the path that she needs to be on, i really have come
to feel those blessings and feel the Spirit tell me MULTIPLE times that
this is true.
Going off of that, we taught this remarkable lesson with this other
investigator. He was being VERY evasive with us and was really hesitant
with the answers he brought forth. But we testified and invited him to
pray to know that Joseph Smith is a prophet
of God.. and he did.. and ALL of us in the room, whether for the first
time or fifth.. received the witness that he is. I know that because of
the Spirit that i have felt.
Lastly, the coolest thing was hearing a 76 year old, recent convert
get up and bear her testimony this week. With all honesty, she got up
and told us all how she was found and what impact it has made on her
life. The greatest thing was seeing the change
and knowing that THIS GOSPEL IS FOR EVERYONE. White or black, young or
old. EVERYONE. She is going on vacation this week to El Salvador for a
few months.. and this is the thing that stood out most to me. When she
said "when i get there, the first thing I'm going
to do is thank God for getting me there. He WILL get me there. And then i
will go and preach the gospel to my family. I promise you all, that i
will return here with good news." I don't recall the last time that i
felt the Spirit that strongly. This gospel is
intended for families. This gospel changes and helps them. This gospel
is intended FOR THEM TO BE FOREVER. Without it, they can NOT be. I can
back that up with my testimony. If a 76 year old woman, with poor health
but a heart of gold can share the gospel..
then anyone can. And AGAIN, I invite you all to do so.
I love you all so much. Pray for opportunities to share this "Good News" with everyone! Be happy and safe!
Forever and Always,
Elder B. Beyer
