The Lord Knows

So this awesome thing happened , 
Where we were walking, and I don't like Chicago summers as much as I don't like their winters....but hey what are you gonna do. 
So we were walking and it was hot....and humid....and hot. And Hermana dyer had to go to the bathroom, so we were like "hey there's a restaurant , we could use their bathroom" so we go in and realize that it's super fancy, and there we are with our humidified hair and red cheeks and $10 forever 21 flats. And we ask the German host if we can use their bathroom and he said yeah. So we go and as we come out, the German host guy looks at us and says "you guys look tired and like you been walking some blocks, why don't you guys sit down and have some water?" So we agreed to the water and at us down at the bar and gave us water in really fancy cups with a very fancy straw. And we drink our water and a busboy comes to get some plates and we started speaking to him and he just moved here from Guatemala. Small talk. We gave a card and told him who we were and said our goodbyes. And then we walk for 10 minutes and our phone rings, we answer, and it's that guy!!!!! Why is that so exciting?? BECAUSE NO ONE EVER CALLS US FROM A PASS ALONG CARD . And he says "I need God in my life , can you help me?" We said yes and scheduled an appointment! So we are seeing him tonight! 

Another miracle that happen is that this weekend we had a "mini missionary" they do this cool thing in the stake where they get the youth to sign up to do a 3 day mission with the missionaries, so we have like a little transfer meeting and meet our mini . And we got Alison barrios. The cutest girl ever who is 17 yrs old (which is weird cause I just got done being 17 yrs old.....like almost 3 years ago...) 

She has a huge testimony and is amazing! And then Hermana dyer got super sick and got a migraine so I was thinking and said "I love you comp but I'm gonna drop you off somewhere so me and Alison and go do some work" so the only people a able to stay with her was our mission presidents wife. 
As we pull up to their house, Hermana dyer had this plastic bowl with her in case she threw up in the car, and we get out of the car and she just stands there and sways and grabs the bowl threw up right in from of the mission home. It was hilarious, and then we rang the door bell and president answered and we handed him a bowl full of Hermana dyers throw up. It was hilarious. I have been telling everyone that story for days, (one of my many talents- awesome story teller) but no worries I got Hermana dyers permission to tell everyone. 
ANYWAYS
We drop her off and as we we're driving to the neighborhood that we were gonna knock doors on, I realized that I was with a 17 year old who has no experience and not set apart nor has a badge on . 
So it made me realize how much Heavely Father trusts me in that moment, I literally felt alone, it was the weirdest thing ever, I could literally feel less authority . It was so weird. But I decided to have a good attitude so we knock on the door and I introduce ourselves to this Hispanic lady and let's us in, we showed her "because of him" on our iPads. And as I started bearing my testimony of the savior, she broke down crying and said "I'm sorry, we been going through a lot , and I was just about to tell him that I lost all faith in him, and then he sent me 2 people to my door to tell me that he loves me and that's he there" 
And we said HECK YEAH! And Alison gave this beautiful testimony about never being alone and it was awesome! We asked if we could come back and she said yes please do. So we are seeing her this week! So pumped!!! The lord really does provide, I had nothing to be worried about, obviously that lady (Marisel) really needed to hear Alison's testimony, so that was super awesome!! 


Just really wanted to share those things with you guys about how the lord really does prepare his children to learn about This week ,
