So we were walking to catch a bus this week and we ended up taking a few wrong turns and we missed the bus, the next bus didn't come for an hour so we kinda changed our plans and started heading over to the university but we went a new way and it appeared like not a great decision because there was seriously one person on the street, so classic, we talked to the one person. It ended up being a girl studying about our age. We got taking and she told us that this week with her congregation she was doing a special fast and prayers ever 6 hours.. Even in the middle of the night.. To find the truth as she said.
She was really interested and was thrilled about the book of Mormon, also her long lost friend is a return missionary from a neighboring ward. We got in contact with the friend and she is going to help us teach her.
It was incredible! I got the chills after just thinking about how precise of timing that was for her to have put in our path. We had to miss a bus and walk down a random street, but I know we needed to meet her.
Moments like that just make me realize really how much God's hands are actually in our lives. I think we may not actually be able to realize it to the full extent in this life but He is! We try to do what's best, try to make our own good decisions and He'll make up for what wisdom we lack.
So next time you miss a bus or get lost or something bigger, a major change of plans in life.. Don't even sweat it, sometimes that's just how God works.
Anyways being a missionary rocks. It's really the best.
Today my district went to Segovia. It was a dream. Spain really is that beautiful. The pictures don't even capture it! How lucky am I no?!
Love you guys!
