Bike Wrecks and Miracles



What a week this has been! The Lord is amazing I love how he works. I know He lives and that He truly cares so much about us. I know that He carries our burdens when we call upon his holy name. I love this work and I love serving.

What did you think about that broadcast last night?! The Lord is truly hastening his work and I can testify to his glorious word and the testimonies of those chosen prophets, seers, and revelators. I just loved it last night. I am so pumped to do the Lords work. Basically I heard a lot of things that I needed to do. 1. Love more. I need to love those I teach I lead I serve with I talk to on the street. My goal is to love them enough that I world lay down my life for them 2. Exercise more faith in Christ. Not just hoping for miracles but expecting them to happen.3 I need to pray more fervently. I need to seek the Lord’s council and seek and listen to what he is telling me.

I had being negative but this week has just sucked. I keep looking for the Lord’s blessings but maybe I’m too hard headed to see them. So I guess the funniest thing that happened but the saddest thing is that Satan does not want the work here in Atlanta to progress. So I wrecked my bike square into a freaking fire hydrant and broke my bike. I’m fine but the bike isn’t. The shops all told me to get a new bike. So yet again...I’m on the lookout for bikes. Luckily there have been miracles received. I received 100 dollars from a dentist from SLC and I found another 100 on the ground and ya it sounds cool until I have to put all of that towards a new bike. Sadly :( don’t ask me how it happened but I blame it all on Satan. I have a couple baptismal interviews that have to happen this week and Satan knows that it can’t happen so the fiery darts start flying not only for me but for the investigator that I have to interview. It’s sad and major depressing but I know that the Lord’s atonement will carry me through. :) That’s a promise for all :)

The certification process that came from the Lord Jesus Christ to President Harding to us as missionaries is just amazing thing. I love it. It’s a little bit too fast paced for me as I want to take my time a little bit more than others but it’s still amazing. I can’t believe the inspiration President Harding received for that binder. I have learned so much from it and I continue to be fed spiritually from that. I love it so much!

Well that’s about it. I hope everyone has a splendid and exciting week :) go find and talk to and baptize your friends, family and neighbors! It can be done.

Love,
E MAC
