The Miracle Equation

Love = Miracles
Last night one of our recent convert family fed us a huge barbecue dinner because I was leaving. they said they usually dont do this to people but they said it was for me because they appreciated all the help and friendship I gave to them and there family. the Cruz family is so awesome.

Zone Fast = Miracles
We had a zone fast yesterday to fast for some miracles in the zone, we came home from church and I started to pack my stuff and we got a call from a member and he said elders go you have a dinner appointment today we were like no, then he told us to come over and bring the restoration dvd. we went over there and we saw one of there friends they brought over, had dinner and had a great conversation, his name is Mark and he is really excited to learn and to find out if these things are true and we watched the video and the spirit was strong and he said he believed that Jospeh Smith did see God the Father and his Son Jesus Christ. We taught him about the apostasy and about the book of mormon that by reading it that he will be able to find out if these things are true or not. He said when is the next lesson he is really excited. He is trying to change his life. he used to do drug abuse and some other stuff but he wants to find out how he can come to know Jesus Christ better and have a better relationship with him. We told him as you read the Book of Mormon that you will draw closer to him and have a better personal relationship if you apply the teachings in the book of mormon because it has with me. I am sad that I have to leave and wont be able to teach him but I know that the lord will direct him in the way that he needs to go.

Hour of Power = MiraclesAnother cool miracle that happened this past week. it was during the hower of power, we saw this guy watering his plants and we started to talk to him and I think he is catholic but does not go to it that often. We told him "We are disciples of Jesus Christ and came to the world to share a unigue message that God has restored his church one again back to the earth through the prophet Joseph Smith and you can come to find out if these are true by reading the Book of Mormon," He was amazed about the simple but powerfull message that we shared with him. He got all excited that it has been restored and he said is there a prophet today for the world and we said :yes there is a prophet today whose name is Thomas S. Monson and there has always been a prophet since Joseph Smith and that it will never leave the earth again." He was so excited and we talked more and got a return appointment with him. I am really excited for him but am sad that I wont be able to teach him and to see how this gospel will bless him and his family. There are people out there that are ready to hear the message of the restored gospel. We just got to keep our head high up and go with faith and he will lead us to them or he will lead them to us.
