Sister Hannah James: Week 24- Miracles and Cluj Days

This was an amazing week! I have been thinking a lot about God's elect and about how they are here in Cluj just looking for this message. They are all around us and it is our job to listen as God directs us where to find them. This week we were out finding a less active member and we hadn't had any success. We had gotten lost several times and when we finally found the street, the block wasn't there. I was feeling bad that we had wasted time but then I realized that we were trying our best to do God's work and that we hadn't given up. I told Sora Christensen that even if we couldn't see it that God had been and still was guiding us. In that moment, we were walking past a house and we saw a family. We got a very strong prompting that we needed to talk to them so we turned around and started sharing our message. We ended up sharing a Book of Mormon with them and have since been back to visit them again. I know that if we hadn't been there at that time we would have missed that opportunity and that if I had continued focusing on the bad and not having trust in God we might have missed that spiritual prompting. This was such an important lesson to me and I am so so grateful that we didn't turn back and that we were blessed to meet this family.

Some of our other blessings this week were also incredible miracles. We were able to contact an investigator after more than a week of not hearing from her and she said she wants to keep meeting with us. We also had several amazing miracles as we talked to people on the streets. We met one girl yesterday who was so excited to see us. She told us that her friend had told her about us and that she wanted to meet us and talk to us. Every day we have so many miracles and experiences.

One scripture that I have been thinking about lately is D&C 42:49-51 "He who hath the faith to see shall see. He who hath the faith to hear shall hear. The lame who hath the faith to leap shall leap." I have the faith that we can all leap through the help of Christ! God is helping us so much and nothing is impossible for Him. Thank you for your love and support!
