Sister Anderson and I are doing great here! I love Montauban. We have already been seeing miracles everyday! We just started teaching a family and they are definitely prepared well before we showed up! They actually found the church online and requested a Book of Mormon! We came and taught them the restoration and when we asked about prophets, the Mom said “we really need a prophet today”. I could tell also that she was really touched my the first vision! We left in awe almost of how prepared and great they are because we invited them to church and they immediately said that they would be there! They actually showed up 15 mins early! Ah, they are definitely miracles!
Oh yeah I am emailing today because we had too many appointments yesterday to do P-day yesterday! Crazy huh?
So the other day we decided to see if we could cut across a cemetery rather than going around it. We get about halfway through when this black cat walks across the path in front of us. And then we realized it was even Halloween!!
They don’t celebrate Halloween here, by the way. But they have like a super memorial day on the 1st of November. They don’t celebrate Thanksgiving here either. Sad huh?
I find that I have a much different perspective on life now. I often look at people and wonder what they are thinking what they are worried about and what their life has been like. I find it hard for me to really understand the things that used to be so important that really just distracted me from really getting anything meaningful done before.
Here is my thought for today. I was really inspired by Enos this morning. You can see in his story that the Lord often does little tests of Faith. Like how he prayed all day long for forgiveness. He was supposed to be hunting and instead he was praying out loud all day long and even when the night came he continued to pray and it wasn't until then that the Lord answered his prayer. It was after he saw that Enos really had the desire that he was really committed that he responded. I feel like that happens to us more than we realize. And It just struck me the importance of just hanging in there until we get our answers and continuing even after that. Because if we don't we will never have these marvelous experiences!
