This week, there were some sweet moments for sure!
On Friday,
we met with the investigator (the guy who found us off of a lucky
internet search) and we taught him the Plan of Salvation. It was
sooo flipping cool! We were all faced with like absolutely speechless moments, and we all recognized a really really
spiritual--kind of just amazing--feeling! He is really Christian and
we shared with him some scriptures from the Bible to help illustrate
what we believe and he really couldn't reply. He was just in awe. It was
so sick. Another reminder that in God's word, there is power!
Then
yesterday one of the more humbling moments of my mission happened.
Korean ward members aren't the best at Family Home Teaching, but honestly
I don't think Americans are either (haha). But one of our members really
likes it, so we asked him to give us a ride and take us to visit some Less
Active members and it was absolutely an inspired decision. The first man
we went and visited was a RC (recent convert) and he is starting to go a little less active. When we went over, the Spirit was not in that guy's house! Not at
all. It smelled like smoke and alcohol and it broke my heart. He just
looked so depressed and it appeared that he was having a really hard time. It turns
out he had been, and we got there at a perfect time to try and help him.
And as we did: the Spirit filled the whole apartment!
Testimony is so incredibly powerful, but so is friendship and Love and
Understanding. It was such a cool experience. Just as Elder Holland told
us to do, we went Family Home Teaching, and I know now why we should!
Such a cool miracle! Help those with feeble knees!
Anyways, no more time. But I love you guys. And I hope you have a fine week!
