Devon Week 36

Sunday night we went over to the Jones family who is a Recent convert that has been less active.  People have told me that they he has been stressed by life's pressures.  I know that those life pressures can make it unfavorable to go to church. We went over and shred with them Alma 26:12 "I boast of my God, for in his strength I may do all things."  At the moment my intentions was only to share one of my favorite scriptures which is why I was surprised to hear Geoff Jones say that he and his family would come to church next week.  Now looking back I recognized that the Lord guided me without me knowing.   I didn't feel prompted at all to read that scripture and I didn't feel the spirit tell me anything.  It was almost like I picked it randomly.  What I learned form that experience is that the Lord can Guide us to do things without us knowing before I thought I had to feel the spirit to be Guided and often cases that is the case.  I know now that the Lord is guiding you without you knowing and that is cool to think about. 

The Dickerson's came to church!!!  I am so proud of them.  Krista Dickerson the mom of the family has Lupus.  That makes it very difficult if not close to impossible for her to come to church.  I feel like the Lord has bestowed a tender mercy not only to us but to the Dickerson's.  

Crazy side note.  Nathan Garrison who is about to go on a mission to Warsaw, Poland got in a car accident last Wednesday and leaves this Tuesday. A drunk driver who also was on pain pills t- boned him and totally destroyed the Jeep he was driving and he should of been severely damaged or killed but it only busted his I-phone and gave him a bruise on his leg.  I go to show you that Satan will do all in his power to stop Missionaries from going on missions but the Lord will always protect his servants. 

That’s great that you got to talk to the Brisco's; there really nice.  I get transfers the day before my birthday and I think I am leaving my area next transfer.  Do you know the Carson's;  they are really nice.  You should be friends with them.  Krista Dickerson is really nice as well. I know that you would like all of them.  Tell Robert Happy Birthday.  Also thank you for the McDonald gift card but could you not send those any more.  Pizza, Walmart, or Subway would be better than McDonald.
