Muy buenas tardes!
I have a pretty cool miracle from this week!
The first one started while we were contacting in the park on Saturday night. We were close to arriving to our house, but it was only 8:45pm. My comp and I decided to go contacting in the park. After we got there, I felt like there was someone there waiting for us. Legit I don't know why, but I had the impression. I stopped my comp and told him that we need to pray. We prayed and asked the Lord to help us to find the people that he has prepared for us that night. We immediately started talking to the first people we came in contact with. The first people we talked to was a couple. They were actually on a date so that was funny haha! We kept looking. We talked with another guy who was standing around in the park. He didn't really want anything to do with us. I was getting a little bummed out at this point since it was getting late and we were going to have to start walking to the house. As we were making our way to the house, someone called out to us,"HEY JOSEPH SMITH!" I was like what the heck. who said that? I turned around and saw a little tiny man running towards us with alcohol in his hands. I probably should've ran but I didn't. This man was straight DRUNK he smelt so dang bad. But I felt like we needed to talk with him. Turns out this dude speaks a little english. As we started talking with him, we found out that he used to be a member of the church. Since he was so drunk I really had no idea what he was saying, but I still felt like we needed to listen to him. After about 5 mins of talking to him, he took me by the arm and brought me over to this group 4 guys smoking marijuana. He introduced us and let us talk with his friends a little bit about us. I got out my Book of Mormon from my bag and taught them a little bit about it. One of the guys there seemed a little interested. His name is Luis. After talking with him, he told us that he's been looking for something more in his life, and that he feels like somethings missing. We promised him that as he would prayerfully read the Book of Mormon that he would find those answers that he's been searching for. We left him with that and made our way back home since it was pretty late. I don't know what's going to happen with him since he didn't have a number that we write down, and he doesn't live in our area. But I know that we found him in the park that night because we prayed, and acted afterwards with faith. This was a Huge testimony builder for me on prayer, and that the Lord is truly preparing people to receive his Gospel.
Never forget to prayer, especially if you feel inspired to do something, you can receive revelation of what you are to do as you pray because prayer invites the spirit!
Love you all!
