Exchange day with Sister McFadden |
Yes, you read that title right, Earthquakes! I never thought Oklahoma could get any, but apparently we do. My companion and I were talking with this guy on the street, and he was like, "and did y'all feel that earthquake yesterday?! It was crazy!" We looked at each other super confused, and laughed and said no. We literally didn't feel a thing! But everyone else we have talked to has felt them, and on multiple days. I guess this place is filled with oil rigs and the machinery causes man made quakes. Who knew. I thought tornados were as crazy as it got here. Apparently one touched down 2 hours from where I am, in Tulsa. Not huge, but I guess it destroyed a restaurant![😬](https://mail.google.com/mail/e/1f62c)
Ok now for all the Miracles that happened this week!!! We went on exchanges this week and Sister Mcfaden and I went to this neighborhood, picked 3 streets that caught our attention, and then prayed to know which one to go to. We both saw this one, Deer Springs, and so off we went. The point is that the Lord didn't want us on that particular street but the one right next to it. We ended up down that one, and almost every person we talked to was someone who we needed to see.
One lady in particular answered the door and was on the phone. When she saw us she told the person on the other line that she would have to call them back. She came out and had the biggest smile on her face. We told her that we were there to share a pretty amazing message about Jesus Christ. She asked us a few questions, and then she began to cry. She blamed it on being 40, but we knew it was the spirit:) She grew up Methodist, but never felt complete going to church, but knew she needed to take her son back to church. She then asked us where our church building was. It was incredible! We stood there for a bit contemplating what had just happened, and were trying to find words! The Lord needed us down that street, and she needed to feel that Spirit at that very moment. We are so excited to teach her and her family!
In District Council the other day we talked about if you want Miracles to happen, you have to believe they will happen. Remember last week's challenge, to wake up with a purpose. Well that day we did this, and our purpose was to find miracles. Well, the Lord had some incredible people in mind, and Miracles were seen!
Another one in that same neighborhood happened. There was this 9 yr. old boy that was racing the mail lady, and then kept asking us questions as we walked around. "Who are you?" "What are you doing?" "Why do you knock on lots of doors?" "Why are your bikes tied to that pole?" "Whats that book in your hand?" He was so cute! but we ended up finding out where he lived (in the most non creepy way don't worry) and talked with his dad for a bit. Well guess what we have an appointment with him next Friday!! So Many Miracles!!!
Your challenge this week is to look for the little or big miracles or tender mercies you have in your life, and write them down in a journal. I promise you will come to see that the Lord really does know and care for you so much!
I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!! Have a Miraculous Week!
