(Sorry I'm late getting this posted to the blog. I was home sick on Monday and Tuesday this week.)
Leanne got baptized!!!!!!!!!! What an awesome joy filled day
that was! The topper was how she kept talking about it, she taught Gospel
Principles the day she was confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter Day Saints and yes that day she also taught Sunday School haha And she
bore a beautiful testimony right at the beginning comparing it to rain and a
rainbow coming after :)
But wait the miracles don't stop there! Saturday night we
were out walking and the house we were going to was just over the train tracks. As we approached a train came and so we were forced to wait. While waiting we
went to go talk to another family that was walking on the sidewalk. That didn't
amount to anything but in the 30 second walk the train went from 40 mph to
stopped dead and we weren't exactly sure how that happened. So we turned around
and went to another investigator in the opposite direction and on the way there
we passed by a house where the man was coming out of his house and just said
"Hey guys" as we went by. Normally we would say hey and keep walking
but I was pulled by almost an ethereal beam that I couldn't control we just
walked up to him and started talking.
He said that he has been looking for God. He said that he
has been needing a place to focus his energies. As we asked him the needed finding
questions he answered them in almost quotes from the Book of Mormon, which he
has never read before! If I could describe it in one word it would be
"hungry." He is hungry for the gospel and was asking such good
questions. We went back Sunday night also and had a member with us. He asked us
about how to feel free from sin and a feeling of guilt. We talked about the
Gospel of Jesus Christ and shared about how it is through Christ he can be
clean and he accepted a date of Nov. 26th to be baptized on. We met him 24
hours before and he is just so excited about it all!
Looking back on it we laughed because God literally stopped
a train to guide us to him. God obviously knows his sheep. And things like this
happen kind of often and we aren't exactly sure what we are doing to be getting
these miracles but we are pretty happy with them haha
Miracles abounding in Muncie!
