This last week was mostly meetings we had some large meeting every single day of the week! but the Lord blesses us for our efforts and so even though we only had a few hours in our area we were able to have some miracles. The other day we were on a train and I saw this man sitting alone with headphones (worst enemy) in. I felt I really needed to talk to him but I knew it would probably be awkward. "The other person always feels 10% more awkward than you" so I just pretended that it wasn't akward and sat there and waved until he took them out, hahaha but his name is Dermish. He has only been in Australia for a few days, he came over for school and had to leave his wife (of 12 days) back in India until she could get a visa! We had a very short chat but exchanged information. This week we met with him in the library and started to teach him. He loves reading and was so thankful for the Book of Mormon, he wants to learn why we are so happy all the time and understand God. This is a miracle because we were super busy but the Lord placed a person right in our path that really needed the Gospel. It makes me wonder how many people that we sit next to on the train or stand next to in the shopping line that are ready to receive the Gospel? but the Lord will bless us to know when we should open our mouths!
I also had another blessing this week. this week I have been studying a certain topic all week but I didnt feel like I was fully getting it, so I just continued to study it! and after a week of continual study I finaly got my answer. I received my answer at church in elders quorum class. I'm convinced that the lesson was only for me. The teacher (unknowingly) started to answer all of my questions I had been studying and it was such a relief! it strengthened my testimony that we can receive revelation at church "who would have known" haha but it took a little preparation on my part. I had to ask the right questions before I could get the right answers! I know that God loves each and every one of us! He is aware of what we need, and he WILL help us when we ask. Sometimes we get to be the person in class receiving revelation, and sometimes we get to be the awkward missionary that wont stop waving on a train. God can use us wherever we are, as long as we follow the spirit! His plan is perfect.
Invitation: I know that the Gopsel is true! and the truth can be found in the scriptures! I invite you to ask a question that has been bothering you and delve into the scriptures for an answer! you will find it!
I love you all have a great week!
