Man, I think I have a bipolar disorder or
something because this week was 1,000 times better than last week. And I
think it all boils down to relying on the Spirit.
Every day
this week before I left the house, I would get on my knees and pour my
heart out, and oh my goodness it made all the difference.
My
comp is either lazy or has faith in me because he had me lead basically
all our lessons this week. I tried not to worry about my dirty Spanish
and just listen to the Spirit.
Wednesday
night we taught a dope lesson to Pablo Y Enlida acerca de the apostasy
and Joseph Smith. I had a Juliablakeart moment where I got a little
over emotional and started crying when I bore my testimony =) Solo
Broma!
Anyways after I bore my testimony they said they
could just feel an overwhelming sense of peace. DOPEE. Both of them work
and we haven't had an opportunity to teach them since. But we talked to
their son Elumine ayer and he basically asked after his baptism if he
could go to the temple, this kid is Anna's age and an absolute savage.
On Saturday
we had a miracle with one of our investis Milagros (the joke is
milagros means miracle in English). Mil is an antiugo investi but hasn't
talked with the missionaries in a few months. She straight up told us
that she wants elder Rod to baptize her and her daughter and she wants
to go to church on Sunday. We have a cita with her tonight so pray for us!
Those
were definitely the two highlights from this week. A few times menos
activos and investis complimented me on my Spanish and told me that I've
definitely improved. However this doesn't matter, I care too much about
what other people think of me.
My motto for this week going forward is let the Holy Spirit Guide.
All is well in the DR
Con Amor
PS - I would love Kodak pictures of everything, football, the family, the house etc. (Julia here - friends and family - feel free to send pics to him).
