A quick one.
One of the friends we've been teaching has been progressing! We started out and he really just had no religious background or seemed like he wanted it in his life, but he kept meeting with is because we were nice people. Last week when we met, he was like, "you both always talk about how prayer and reading this Book of Mormon gives you this peace and fulfillment. I mean, that's the theme that I'm getting. I feel like I have that already from other things." And so we discussed with him how even though we get that in life from other things, the fulfillment we get from getting closer to God is so much more. This last lesson we had, he was like "I don't know how to describe it. I just feel like praying and reading the scriptures, I'm starting to feel what you two feel I think." We were so excited!!! As missionaries, we invite people to change, we bring the spirit, but only the people we teach can choose to change and bring that spirit into their hearts. I can't describe the joy that I feel when I see these people change. That's my little story for the week! Hope you all have a great one!
