Miracle Week

We had a miracle week!!! On Friday during personal study I was
studying from 3Nephi27 and 28. Which I have been loving!!! They are
the chapters where Moroni records the visitation of the Savior to the
Twelve Nephite disciples. Jesus teaches His gospel and then blesses
them all with the desires of their hearts. I have been pondering and
studying these chapters for at least a good two weeks now, but this
time these verses really stood out: verses 28 and 29 of the first
chapter. They read:
"And now I go unto the Father. And verily I say unto you, whatsoever
things ye shall ask the Father in my name shall be given unto you.
"Therefore, ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened
unto you; for he that asketh, receiveth; and unto him that knocketh,
it shall be opened."
This promise is in such perfect unison with the events that are
recorded, and the Spirit made it so plainly apparent that what Jesus
Christ said is true, that as I read them I felt sure I had faith
enough to ask for whatever I desired and it would be given me. I
looked at the way that the Twelve had prepared themselves to receive
revelation and answers of this sort from heaven, and saw that they had
fasted and prayed in unity for a specific reason.
So when companion study came we talked about it. My awesome companion
agreed that "procrastination prevents priesthood power" and that we
had better start right a way. So we got a drink and started a fast;
praying that we could help someone towards baptism in the next three
weeks of the transfer.
That day was really hard and had success only in fact that talked to a
few members, and felt good about it. I have never been as drained as
when we came home and planned that day.

Then Saturday came! We started out the day with a service project, at
which we were able to talk with a former investigator and get a
separate great new potential investigator. On the biker ice to the
church for a lesson we got a call from our investigator who we hadn't
had a lot of contact with lately, and that was great! Then we had a
lesson! When we were finally about to sit down to lunch after the
lesson, our next appointment (who I absolutely did not think would
show up) showed up! And we were able to make it a joint lesson with a
brother from another ward who had come for a seminary thing. Then I
was able to meet the Matono family, President Ichimaru, and Sister
Miyagawa  from Nagasaki!
