He Sends Angels
We went out to knock some doors while waiting for some of the sisters to get to our area. Franco was just waiting. We got to his house & he popped his head through the window. My companion said, he's going to be elect. So we introduce ourselves & started to teach him about the restoration. It was so perfect because he is 14 years old. We told.him about Joseph Smith & had him read the first vision out loud. The spirit came flooding in & you could see it in his body. He know he felt the spirit that day. We felt it too, so strongly. When the things we asked them too. It was so special.
We had exchanges with some of the sisters in our zone & my companion told me that we could go visit an active family in our ward. I just pushed it off because there wasn’t going to be that much time. Again, she asked me if I had put them into the schedule. I responded telling her I would, then forgot. We had already visited quite a few people & we just so happened to pass their house. I have never been inside, so I didn’t recognize it. But, I saw the husband come out & remembered the house & the voice of my companion telling me to go. He told us they were having a few struggles in their family. He wanted us to go in to see his wife. So we did, we just sat with her. She talked to us, we shared a message & then she cried. Her struggles came out & we were so grateful to be there. We left & I just felt so happy to be a missionary. God knows each & every one of us. He knows our needs & he sends people to help us. I am so grateful for a companion who stayed persistent in how she felt & who listens to the spirit. I am so grateful God put me on that street, right at that moment to recognize it again so we could be there with that sweet hermana.
An inactive member has been coming back to church with his family. Yesterday he got up to bare his testimony. He said he had not given a testimony in about 15 years. He explained what I just did. God sent him earthly angels to help bring him back to the path. Small world, because his angels were the sweet family I just had mentioned. He stood up there & with power in his voice testified of angels, of God, of Jesus Christ, of Joseph Smith, & of living prophets. It is never too late.
We went to go visit an inactive family & they are so awesome. They went inactive during 2020 after having been sealed in the temple. They just don't know how to take that first step. We told them that now is the time. We can't delay. They listened with pure intent. I can't wait to see them take the step again.
I think about it all the time, Christ's Atonement is sufficient. It is what will win every single time. Think of Him in the Garden of Gethsemane. He suffered from every single pore. He understands what it is like to have to walk back. He understands how we feel when we need to repent. He knows how we feel when we lose someone. He knows how we feel when we fall down. He knows our every single need. & He is the only one who can succor us. He is the one who will lift us from our weakness. Whatever thing it is that you are going through right now, think of Jesus in Gethsemane. He knows your name. He will come to you. He loves you.
I love you too. I pray for you.
With all my heart,
