Missionary Work at its Finest

As for this week.. It's been a pretty crazy one! The Lord has poured out like countless tender mercies on us though! We've been having like some of the best weeks this area has seen in ages and finally the adversary is trying to shut us down.. we had like 15 lessons cancel like all in perfect harmony.. as if Satan told them all to do it at once hahah. But as we know.. the good always wins if we put in the hard work.. so we kept working.. And in one day when 7 lessons cancelled.. we were able to make up for 4 of those lessons unexpectedly... 2 of them being on the doorstep! And as we bore our testimonies of the Book of Mormon on this Less actives doorstep.. She began to weep and committed to start reading it again! And that same evening we felt prompted to visit this other family right before we went home... and it was SMASH AS!!!... Like no joke.. I've come to realize I'm an addict.. It's become the best problem that any one could ever have haha. I'm always looking for my next 'fix' as to when I can feel the spirit next... And constantly wanting that... you find yourself doing and saying things you could never think of on your own... and this particular lesson this father of this family was expressing this concern... and after he talked for ages... I was like.. "How would you feel... if I told you... every thing you said just now... can be resolved in the scriptures?"... And he didn't believe me one bit... And I was like.. (open scriptures...) BOOM!... And he was dumbfounded... He read it over and over like 10 times and was like... #mindblown... The spirit was so strong for real... and I was able to walk out there with my companion feeling the essence of missionary work at it's finest.. teaching with power and authority... resolving concerns... feeling the spirit... it doesn't get much better than that... So it was a really good week indeed!
