Happy Pioneer Day!
Man today our train stopped and we waited for two hours so I'm running
out of time to email so I'll make this fast.
This
week flew by! Holy cow! We were running from Bible referrals to finding
to teaching back and forth all week. It's been really powerful and so
,any miracles keep coming! It's so cool!
First
cool story (and it will probably sound way more exaggerated then it
actually was). We unwisely did not bring water bottles and we were racing
across town for Bible referrals for about 5 hours in 90 degree heat and
high humidity. Also I had crash my bike twice and my right leg was
bleeding down the side of my leg (fun fact you cant catch yourself if
you wear pencil skirts). In addition an older man named Cierco started
chastising and yelling at us for being fake Christians and my trainer
wouldnt leave (remember him hes important later) for a long time. Anyway
were dehydrated, hot, I'm bleeding, and I keep praying if we are
actually genuine and sincere in sharing the gospel. Finally we stopped
at a McDonalds and get free water (huge blessing). A man walks up and
says "You know it could be worse." And started telling us story about
biking 30 miles everyday as a taxi biker to fed his children. Then he
said we were the most genuinely nice people. Then got on the subject
about our religion and actually set up an appointment. I truly know that
God cares about all of us and he personally answered my prayer through
that man at McDonald's.
Now
back to Cierco. I had no love for this man but my trainer decided to
call him anyway. Sure enough he picks up and started to rebuke us
again... but then he pauses and says sisters I had a dream about you two
last night. And I know that you talked to me for a reason and I want to
know why. Through the power of the Spirit I felt so much love for this
man and interpreted his dream. We've now been teaching him for the past
two days and its been a huge miracle and eye opening experience. I'm so
glad God sent him to us and he listen.
I
love this gospel so much, and I love seeing miracles every day. I hope
you all see them in your own life and have a wonderful week!
