13 February 2013

Hello,
 
So yesterday we received four more missionaries to the mission! So we spent a few hours picking them up from the airport and having a brief overview of important things, and then we dropped them off in their areas, or in the areas they would be working in for the next couple of days.
 
Today we are probably going to a city named Ávila, which is a city still surrounded by an ancient wall.
 
Thursday we are going to have another mission tour. Elder Kearon of the Area Presidency will be coming to talk with the mission and to give them guidance, etc. So that is going to be really exciting. 
 
 
So recently we went to a less active recent convert´s house and we were talking to him about miracles, answers to prayers and I was talking about how the Lord, in many scriptures, tells us that we can ask, and we shall receive. Their is no doubt or option to question, that the Lord Will answer every single one of our prayers. He will not leave our prayers unheard. And because he loves us he has made us that promise. And he is therefore bound by the promise that he has made us to fulfill every prayer that we ask of him, when we pray with faith and when we have a good intention in mind. I didn´t use those exact words, but as I was testifying of this to him, I almost stuttered as I felt the Spirit testifying to me of the truth of that statement.
 
So I don´t know if I ever told you, but, when Melissa was baptized (the second baptism on my mission) She told us how she found us. So her story pretty much is that she decided that she wanted to go walking that night (something not that normal) in the cold (something that she NEVER did), on a street that they don´t usually walk on. And she did all that because she felt like it. That was a testimony to me that when the missionaries are ready, that he will guide his children that are ready into the path of the missionaries so that they will be able to bring his children to him.
 
So thanks for everything!
 
Hasta Luego
 
Elder Johnson.
