Fasting about Finding
On Fast Sunday, my companion and I fasted so that we could find someone prepared for the gospel. It was amazing how instant our results were. As soon as we combined our faith with works—fasting and searching—we found someone after only knocking on three doors. It was funny because we had just knocked on the door and no one answered, but then she got off the elevator and she looked shocked that we were there. We asked if she had time to hear our message and she said of course, come inside, it’s cold! So we did!
She was so sweet. She said that when she first saw two strangers in front of her door she was terrified, but then she saw the light in our eyes and she knew we weren’t scary. She gave us some herb tea and rice cakes and we talked about her life and her religion. She said she was interested in learning English and about our gospel. So we’re gonna meet with her again tomorrow. Pretty exciting!
