Week 13- Goals, Prayers, and Blessings

This week was so amazing and full of miracles. It all started when we set transfer goals as a companionship. We set some really specific, kind of scary number goals. As we were talking about what we could do to reach them, we realized that it would really come down to our faith and prayers. We set these goals and got to work! We have been talking about how specific prayers bring specific blessings and we started praying that we would be blessed with more time to meet new people to share the gospel with and that we would be able to find a family to teach. 

The blessings came immediately! We have had so many more opportunities to talk to people and we have had so many chances to talk to families here in Brasov. Some other awesome blessings that we saw were that we were able to set up to meet with a lot of people whose numbers we had already had. We had one miracle with an investigator that we haven't been able to contact for weeks! We are planning on meeting with her this week to teach her about the Plan of Salvation. We are continuing to pray and pray and work and work. I feel so blessed by God! 

I have learned so far on my mission what a true power and force faith is. When I truly ask God believing that He will bless me He always does. Sometimes not the way that I think it will be but always the way that I need. We have continued to teach Alexandra and she's progressing toward baptism and really starting to understand who Jesus Christ is for her. She told us yesterday that she loves going to church and that there is something good in her heart that she can't quite explain! She is striving every day to keep the Word of Wisdom and is praying about the law of Chastity. The amazing thing about her is that she only wants to do what is right and to find the truth and she is willing to act on what she finds out. She has a sincere heart and real intent! 

We have felt so guided this week in our teaching and finding this week and we know that God has plans for Brasov and for all of Romania! Sometimes it is hard to see that God is there and that He has a plan for us. But I know with all my heart that He truly is. He is our loving Father in Heaven and He is waiting to hear from us and waiting to bless us. Pray to Him in faith and He will answer! I love you all so much! Thank you for your love and support and strength!
