This week has been great! We´ve seen a lot of miracles and have learned many new things! I seriously love this gospel! This week my companion and i have set a lot fo new goals and plans to help our little piece of the Lords vineyard to progress a lot more. We are super excited in order to work towards them and accomplish them through Gods help.
We witnessed a huge miracle this week regarding a part memeber family that we have been working with and serving. We felt the need to share about family history work and as the Spirit filled the room, Jorge decided that it was something that he needed to learn more about adn that it was something very important. He understood that it was only the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints that had such work and opportunities. It was really beautiful to see the Spirit of Elijah literally working and touching his heart. We tuaght him even more about it and he absolutely found the need to do the work for his family and find their names and stories. :) We are planning a time to get together with the fmaily history consultant of the ward and are planning the day in which all can get together. Im so excited!
The next time that we taught Mirtha and Jorge, we felt that we needed to teach them about the sacrament and the representation of all that is found within.. We focused on how important it is and how it applies to Christs atonement. As the Spirit testifed to them of the truthfulness, they ended up feeling that they sinned by not going to church and that they needed to repent. Thats how strong the Spirit was! Seriously becasue Jorge has never sincerely felt the desire to go to church or felt bad for not going. But they felt the need to become better and they definitely felt eh ned to repent. What was so beautifulo is that we never once said anything straight up or harsh but the Spirit told and tauhgt them with so much clarity and strong that they realized for themselves. I feel like that is key in orde tot teahc anybody. Always teach in the way so that the Spirit teaches and testifies of the truthfulness and the importance and they will relaize forthemselves and have the desires to be obedient through the love that they feel from God and that love that they have for Him. :)
I love this work and I know wiht my whole heart that it is the work of the Lord and it is the work of Salvation. That we cannot bring people unto Christ by ourselves and that ist is only through the Spirit and the usage of their agency. I know that God loves each one of His children and that He is always doing everything in His power to help each one of them be saved in His kingdom..but that He will never overtake our own agency. I love my God and my Savior and His gospel. I know that this church is literally His kingdom onb Eartha dn that we need to all thrust with our sickles for the salvation of His children in our surroundings. Let us all work and serve together. It requieres a willing heart, desires, and hard work. And always remember...Existence without work isnt existence. And only God makes us happy. All good things comes from Him. I love you all!!!
