Walnutty Groovy part 2?

It's been such a dang good week this week!

I'm not going to lie, (I'm a missionary, I can't lie) last week and the beginning of this week were pretty rough. But, because of it I got to see how much Heavenly Father loves me and it was a pretty neat experience.

Monday night I knelt down and said a prayer to Heavenly Father asking him to show me that He loves me. (as If He hasn't done enough already. #Selfish). The next day we had a young women come out on a mini mission with us, (She's basically a missionary for 2 days) and it was way cool because we did some shotgun tracting and were able to meet this lady, who said she didn't know anything about the Book of Mormon. We were able to share the first vision with her and teach her about the B

ook of Mormon and how we have a return appointment with her. The spirit was so strong and as I was reciting the first vision I could feel Heavenly Father and the Holy Ghost working through me and it was really cool that Heavenly Father trusted me enough to use me as an instrument to help our sister.

Then on Tuesday, we were driving and we get this call from the mission office saying thAT MEGAN WAS GETTING BAPTIZED HOLY COW. I'M FREAKING OUT HOLY COW.
So we got to go back to walnut grove and see her get baptized on Saturday! Megan was my first investigator I found! It was so much fun and I was so happy for her! The spirit was so strong and I know that she is going to receive so many blessings from her righteous decisions!

It was really cool because Heavenly Father was showing me that he loves me. Others could have looked at it like "I did all the work for that. That's because of something that I've done." But really it was because Heavenly Father cared about me and was willing to show me. It was very humbling!

I promise you that if you look for the miracles or look for God's hand in your life, you will find them.

Remember to ☀️FIND JOY☀️
