The Lord is aware of our needs

5/16  This week was we saw such a huge miracle! We had a very important visit with an investigator and her mom, and at the last minute, the man who was going to help us with the visit told us he couldn't come. We were in a panic to find another member who could help us, so we called everyone, but nobody could help us. We decided to go pass by another member's house nearby to see if he could come, but he wasn't home. We finally decided to go to the visit and hopefully teach in a park or something. Right as we got to the front door, a member drove by and asked us if we needed help. He parked his car and came and helped us with the visit. We had an excellent lesson with Alexia and her mom who won't let her get baptized. They are going to set some goals and pray together to figure it all out.

We also had a really good visit with Sandra and her 3 daughters Gloria, Ana, and Wendy. They are a great family from Nigeria, and they have a baptismal date for the 28th of May! We are really excited about them! When we first talked to Sandra she told us that she really wanted her kids to grow up in the gospel and get baptized. When we asked her if she wanted to get baptized she said "why not!" I'm really excited to work with them and help them prepare for baptism.

It was incredible to see the Lord's hand in the work!. That experience I had this week really strengthened my faith. The Lord knew that we needed a member for that visit, but we needed to do everything in our power first before He put someone in our path. Had we not spent that time trying to call everyone we knew, and had we not passed by the other member's house first, we wouldn't have been where we needed to be when the member drove by who helped us. I learned this week that the Lord is very aware of our needs, and He always has a way for us to meet those needs. Our part is to do everything in our power to obtain what we need, then move forward with faith.
