Smart phones and social media for missionaries , that's a joke right?

Well,

The day has come when we are getting smart phones and social media to use in missionary work. Pretty crazy right. I'm going to do all I can to make an effective use out of it, but it feels pretty weird at this point. The Lord sees it convenient though so I'm just going to trust Him. 

This week we worked really really hard. Our investigators we had last month got baptized and we have been pushing hard to find some new people to teach. We contacted a ton of people in the street and got their numbers but that is never really the best way to find them. We end up going through a ton of people before finding someone genuinely interested. The best way to find solid people is through the members though. We are teaching a man right now that the members met through advertising a business and contacting in the street who is really awesome. We have been working hard with him and he has been doing awesome at keeping his commitments. He has some fears about baptism though. He hasn't really seen himself  ready up until this point. We see him as super prepared though and have felt prompted to give him a date to work towards. The other day we were teaching him when we invited him to be baptized on a specific date, he was very unsure so we told him to just pray and ask God what He thinks. He did it and my dear friends the Lord told him in his mind and in his heart that this was true and that he should be baptized. It's at times like these where I realize how little I really am in the work of the Lord. This really is His work and I am just blessed to participate in it in any way that I can!

I know that God answers all of our prayers, just like he did with our dear friend who wasn't sure and had his doubts. If we trust his answers and move forward acting on what He tells us to do, we can live the life he wants us to live. God wants us to live the life that will lead us back to happiness in his presence. As we live this kind of life, we will see how he helps us every day and feel little pieces of that promised happiness.

So keep on living the life that will lead you to the promised land my friends! Ask him what you should do and he will answer you! Act on those answers and you will find the bright side of life! 

God Bless you!
