6/13/16

So I had a super cool experience yesterday that I will share quickly cause I don't have a lot of time. So we went over to a less actives house yesterday who we had never met. And so we pull up and see that her front door is slightly open and so we went and knocked on it. She answered and invited us in and we go in and sit in her living room which is all dark and had like no lights on. And she goes on to tell us about how she barely has enough food to eat at all and how she never has any desire to do anything and like missed her cousins wedding the night before because of it. And she told us about how she thinks she is slipping into a depression. And we shared a few scriptures and thoughts with her and the change was amazing. She went and got her scriptures and turned some lights on and slowly started to open up more and her heart started to soften. She started telling us about her baptism and showed us pictures of it and of her family and laughing and telling us stories. It was incredible because we were seeing the light of Christ re-ignite in her right in front of our eyes. You could see that she could feel the spirit again and she was remembering what it was like to have it in her life. She had told us that she barely went outside anymore but she walked us out and talked to us more on her front porch and yeah, it was so cool to see how the Doctrine of Christ can change someone so drastically and so quickly. I hope we will continue to get to work with her and change her life back to how it used to be. Allow this gospel and Christ to change your life like it changed this womens.
