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 ,
