So this week was a mix of the good and the not as good. We can't always have good weeks. Trust me I wish that was the case, but Heavenly Father gives us challenges so we can grow into better people, friends, leaders, and missionaries. Well I'm just going to jump right in to the good part of the week that I want to share with you guys because thats the part that really matters.
So this week we had he opportunity to exercise our Priesthood power on a few occasions. The one that we really saw the results was from an investigator named Carolina. I might have already talked a bit about them but I'll just review just in case I didn't. So she lives with a less active member, named Cervio, which is awesome and not so awesome. He is always there bearing testimony and reassuring her that this is the Church of Christ, but we got to get them married before she can get baptised. He is a stud, I have no clue how he is less active haha we're working on him too.
So she is a teacher and they just started school down here so she has been super stressed. Cervio told her about how we can give her a blessing of comfort so she wont be so stressed and so she can relax. We gave her a blessing last week but she told us how she felt and a little story about it this week. She said that right when we put our hands on her head, she felt all the worry rush out of her and she felt a warm feeling that she couldn't describe. We told her that that was the spirit working and she knew without a doubt that the Priesthood is real and we are blessed to have it on the Earth today.
She then went on to tell us how later that night she was planning for the first day of school, the next day, and she was getting stressed again. She just thought about her blessing and she said that the same warm feeling filled her body and the worry left her. The power of the Priesthood is real! We are so blessed to have this gift in our lives. I am so happy that I have been blessed to live on the Earth when the Priesthood is here too. Just this little testimony that Hermana Carolina shared with us strengthened my testimony of the Priesthood tremendously.
I hope you can all see the blessings and miracles that come through the power of the Priesthood. I love you all so much and I hope you all have a great week.
Con todo, Elder Adams
