So this week the weather decided to take a random
turn and get cloudy and cold with several rain showers/misting all week!
We had to bundle up! It was so weird though because it was like
literally all at once! Then yesterday it switched back to being nice and
sunny. Um what? Nashville weather is CRAZY! Kind of like Utah weather I
guess haha
Okay, this week was a great week! It was really long but also went by super fast! It's been crazy!
So
remember that Michael guy that we miraculously met last week? Well we
saw him this week with a member and had a super awesome lesson with him!
We taught a lot of the restoration and talked so much about prophets!
He had so many great questions and you could tell that he just really
wanted to know! It was so cool!!
Also, we met
this REALLY awesome guy named Devin! We were planning to go tracting and
the traffic and bus system was taking forever so we ended up at the
place we were going to go tracting like, 30-45 minutes later than we
wanted to be. BUT while we were tracting Devin's apartment building
(like the first building we got to) he came home from work and so we
would not have met him if we had been there at the time we wanted too!
God is so good! He was super interested and we have a return appointment
with him on Thursday!
Okay and here's another cool miracle that at first was really a struggle. On Saturday night, we had like, nothing to do. All our plans fell through and Saturday
night in YSA is such a struggle. No one is available. And it was
freezing so street contacting was not an option. So we decided to just
hard core bus contact. But, we BARELY missed the bus because of the
cross walk. So then we literally had nothing to do. We just stood there
for like 5 minutes. Then we decided to pray because, you know,
inspiration and stuff. So we pray and just keep standing there. I saw
this guy across the street that was walking and I was hoping he would
cross the crosswalk but he didn't so my thoughts of talking to him were
dashed. So then we kept standing there and I noticed the same guy was
now sitting at the bus stop of the bus we had just missed, and I knew
the bus was not going to come for another like 45 minutes so I was like,
"lets go talk to that guy!" So we go and Wow! He was so cool! His named
was Templeton and he asked us all sorts of awesome questions like what
we do if we had no fear, and a time when we've prayed the most (if we
wanted to share) as well as our favorite scripture. We shared some from
the Book of Mormon and he was astounded. Like, that's the best way to
describe it! He just kept saying. Wow. That was an amazing scripture!
(It was Ether 12:27
that Sister Dillon shared) and so we kept talking about the Book of
Mormon and a bit of the Restoration and it was just sooo cool. And right
after we got his number the bus came. Perfect timing. God is SO good!
A
lot of people have been dropping us slash we have had to drop a lot of
people this week. Steven is taking a break from the Book of Mormon and
praying, but he went to the priesthood session of conference and came to
the Sunday afternoon session. But I'm pretty sure it was because of food and the social aspect. Oh well.
We
also had a lesson at Anne Parkes house with this investigator named
Tessa. I might have mentioned her. But yeah she was very honest with us
and said that there were things about the coming forth of the Book of
Mormon that she just couldn't believe. She has trouble reading the Book
of Mormon and she doesn't go by feeling to come to know that something
is true. She has to believe it logically first or something like that.
It's difficult to explain. But yeah that was sad. She is so awesome
though. Maybe one day. But in the mean time we are still finding good
people like Devin and Templeton. And this week we have the car so the
slow week should pick up!! :)
Okay well I am
running out of time because the internet was being a struggle at the
beginning. But hey, I LOVED CONFERENCE!! It don't have any of my
conference notes though so I don't really remember much. I loved Elder
Holland's and Nelsons. And I am so stoked the Elder Renlund is a new
apostle. I met him and he is just so awesome! I'm so excited for Elder
Rasband and Stevenson also!!! They will be so great!!!
I
loved the Ponderizing talk!!! My scripture is 1 Corinthians 3:16-17! I
just picked a random one from PMG!! :) Share with me your ponderizing
scripture!! I want to hear them!
I know
President Monson is a true prophet and that God speaks to us today
through his servants! I know the Book of Mormon is true!!! I love it so
much!!! And I love y'all so much!!!! Sorry for the shortness of this
email!!! :)
Love,
Sister Myers
