Elder Smith, Elder Radmall (the tall one), Elder
Pectol, and I went hiking at Silver Falls with Brother Meeks and a member from
their ward. It was super fun! But because of that, there isn't much time left
in the day. Trying to be obedient and get everything done that we need to get
done on pday, so we are still flying around to finish everything.
The
week here was really good. The things that happened were all good.
Aishia finally committed to be baptized! Now it is just trying to settle the
date that it will happen. We are going back tonight to set the date. Hopefully
the 6th of May. The Amyda's are also scheduled for that day. It's all pretty
exciting, but it's great to see the Spirit working in their life. In the lesson
that Aishia committed to be baptized, the Spirit worked on her throughout the
whole thing. At the beginning of the lesson, if we would have asked, she would
have probably said no. But the Spirit worked on her and then by the end of the
lesson we were reading Ether 12:6 and talking about how baptism would be her
"trial of faith" and then we asked if she would and she said yes! She
has come a long way since I met her back in March. The Savior has really
changed her heart. I'm excited for her.
I
had a couple of cool experiences with the Spirit this week. The main one was
during one of my nightly prayers. I asked a very specific question to Heavenly
Father. I got the feeling to just be calm and listen. I received a very
distinct feeling from the Spirit. I know it was from Heavenly Father. I bear
witness that He lives and listens to our prayers. That knowledge doesn't remove
any trials I face, any doubts, any fears that I have, but I can't deny the
testimony that I have received.
By
the way, one thing I've learned is to write down spiritual experiences. It's
important to remember those!
