Nothing much to say here, just the same as last week!
We do have someone on date for the 7th of December! so
that's pretty exciting! but other than that, it's pretty much finding finding
finding.... we did meet some rather colorful people this week though.
We met a Russian Pentecostal family they weren't
interested in our message, but they let us into their home to pray with
them, the mother pulled several scarves out of a drawer and they all
covered their heads to pray... we all bowed our heads and as soon as I
went to start the prayer... all four of them began to pray out loud in Russian
they were each saying their own prayer... so I just sat and listened... I
wasn't going to compete and try to talk over them. when they finished we
thanked them and left. it was so interesting to see how they worshiped their
savior. They are good people and they worship their savior the best they
know how. I could really feel that they were a very spiritual family and
they were very devoted to their faith... these kinds of people will
accept the gospel one day... maybe not in this life because they are so devoted
to their faith at the time, but that is the beauty of the gospel, they will
have the opportunity to accept it in the next life!
Well family, I hope that y'all are still reading along with
me. Alma is a good book of scripture... a lot of it is war, but I think we can still
learn so much about how God works and how Satan works... we can see
the pride cycle and we can learn how to recognize it in our own lives... I love
the chapters in alma where Moroni is preparing his armies for war... and
because he is a righteous man, and he has the lord on his side to guide him, he
stays one step ahead of the Lamanites. we too can stay one step ahead
of the enemy as we rely on a loving heavenly father, he will show us
what we can do to keep ourselves safe in this world.
I love this gospel and I LOVE the book of Mormon!
Well family I love y'all
have a good week
LOVE
