Miracle #1 Tracy
So 2 Saturday's ago we got a call from some online missionaries in Missouri about Tracy and how she wanted to learn about our church right? Well she is getting baptized on June 16th!! We are so happy for her! I have never met anyone more prepared than her. We had a lesson about the Plan of Salvation and when we talked about Jesus Christ and His Atonement she just began to bawl. She felt so bad that she had made Him suffer so much because of the choices she has made in the past. She is just amazing! She asks for things to read and has stopped smoking on her own because she feels like it it not a good choice! Wow, I am just amazed at how blessed I am to have been able to be a part of her change. Good is so good!
Miracle #2 Ernest
So we got a call from a member and she said, "would it be okay if I invited my friend Ernest over for dinner tonight when y'all come over?" We said we would love it! So he came over and asked so many sincere questions about our church, we gave him a Book of Mormon after singing to him and playing "Peace in Christ". He proceeds to ask "If I were to begin reading this book, where should I start?" What?! He is so good!
Miracle #3 Ruben
Ruben is inactive and I have talked about him before. Well we go to his house and as we are talking, he blurs out "well I want you to know I am stoned right now, so it probably won't sink in". But I was guided by the Spirit to testify more powerfully and boldly than I had ever testified in my life of the things he needed to do. And how we would not back come unless we were invited to come by him making choices to change his life. It was such a powerful experience! I just felt the Spirit speaking through me directly to him!
There have been even more tiny miracles that have happened! I can't even express how grateful I am to our Savior for augmenting my efforts! He takes what I have and makes it even better! Jesus Christ really died for us. He really loves us, and He wants us to be happy! I know that He can help you if you turn to Him, follow Him, and sacrifice what you want for Him.
Have a marvelous week!
P.S. the weather here is insane! 100°+ every day with humidity! Let's just say I will be drinking a lot of water these next couple weeks!

I proceed to pull the car over, her nose is gushing blood and we only have ONE Subway napkin! I ran up to a random house and they didn't answer so we rushed home so she could change cause she got blood on her dress and yeah... it was crazy! BUT we made it to dinner only 10 minutes late!
