The Joy that is in my heart for this past week is beyond my Comprehension!

Wow! This week was awesome! It started out a little week though because at the start of the week we had a Game of the World Cup and a Zone Conference after so we couldn´t get much done at the start of the week. All in all, it still came out with a bang. The Miracles that happened at the end of this past week were amazing! We had so much success, we were on our knees begging the night before that we could at least get one of our investigators to come to church, and I know with out a doubt especially now, that God always answers our prayers in Faith. We came into the Sacrament Hall and we had 9 investigators there! The joy that I had was beyond my comprehension. I was so happy. I almost fell to the ground because of it. To add on to that miracle. Is that we recieved 8 references after that, and one of them we talked to and marked to visit tomorrow. She is so awesome! It added even more to my joy. We also prior to Sunday had a Baptism on Wednsday. We unfortunately weren´t able to confirm him but we will get that done this coming Sunday! After all of this and when we got back to the House yesterday I fell on the floor because I was so overcome with joy, I testify that Miracles do exist, they did not cease with the Apostles of Old, they continue on as long as we have the Faith and kneel down before God always. I have a Scripture I´d like to share for this week. It´s Alma 22:16 and it says;

16 But Aaron said unto him: If thou desirest this thing, if thou wilt bow down before God, yea, if thou wilt repent of all thy sins, and will bow down before God, and call on his name in faith, believing that ye shall receive, then shalt thou receive the hope which thou desirest. 

I love this scripture a lot. It is something that has helped me a lot this past week, or since Friday when I read it. It is when Aaron is teaching the Father of King Lamoni and he wants to know a specific thing that Ammon said unto him. And Aaron told him that if He would bow himself down unto God, or as I studied it. If you will kneel down in Faithful, Sincere, and Humble Prayer before God. Asking and also begging for forgivness of all your misdeads. Then asking in Faith for the things that you desire, believing on the name of the Lord and having Faith in Him unwavering. He will grant unto you that desire that you wish for. I know that this is true. I have witnessed the Miracle of it this past week. It has been an amazing comfort to me my companion and our work. I know that these things are true without any doubt in my Heart. I know that the Lord will bless me as I have Faith and Hope in Him, and I use His gift of Charity that I may bless all of you and all of my investigators and members here as well. This I leave with another scripture that I love as well that can be a blessing to all of you as you study. It´s Moroni 7:40-48. It´s a fantastic Scripture that I love very much and want to leave with all of you, that you guys can study it and apply it yourselves as well. That´s all for this email. I´m sorry but I don´t have as many pictures as before. Até o próximo! Tchau Tchau!
