This week we have been running from one thing to the next!
We had zone conference this Tuesday and a few hours of that
were dedicated completely to the Sabbath day training given by the quorum of
the 12. I believe all the stakes were supposed to watch the videos during
combined Sunday School on the 5th Sunday, so hopefully y'all were able to see
them. I have learned so much about the Sabbath! What an incredible opportunity
we have to show our commitment to the Lord. In Ezk 20:20 it talks about the
Sabbath being a sign to God. What sign do we want to send to our Father in
heaven? How can we make our sign of love for Him more evident by how we act on
the Sabbath day?
On Saturday we went to this cute 2 yr. old's birthday. His
Grandma isn't active, but we've been visiting her recently and she really wants
to start coming back to church and eventually go to the temple. It's amazing to
see the changes within her :)
We also had a little miracle yesterday morning. Last
Wednesday we ran into this sweet lady named Chrystal who had just moved with
her husband and two kids from Minnesota. We were driving to an address we had
been told to go visit, but I felt prompted to pull over and knock at a certain
home. So I quickly told Sister Cattin to pull over. As we were praying I asked
for guidance concerning this family we were about to meet. It was crazy because
I had this picture of a man who would answer the door but I felt that I needed
to pray for a family. It turns out we did meet a man at the door but then the
family we were led to was visiting him and his wife at their home.
Long story, sorry. Well, we met Chrystal at this home which is in a city about 30 minutes away from where we live, but it turns out she was moving to a place just a few streets over from where we live in Cochran. She had also met the missionaries when she was in High school!
EVERYONE has a pet in Georgia..some people have many. :) |
Monday morning we went over to her apartment but couldn't get into the building at all because you had to have a key card. We were devastated. We realized there was NO way we could get a hold of her. We turned it over to the Lord and realized that if He wanted us to meet her again, we would. We start to drive out of the parking lot and, no joke, we both look to the right and say, "Is that Chrystal?" YES! Clearly, we are supposed to get to know this wonderful lady. What a miracle.
Have a wonderful week! Remember, WE have to
be the one to open our heart and let Christ enter.
Love you all!
Sister Brown
